Thanks Jack - and to think 3 years ago I was looking for a Mustang...
Congrats on the Moderator position - a better man could not have been selected.

Thanks, I have to agree with you. Early on I can tell that they are two different cars. On the way home from the dealer I killed the C7 three times trying to figure out the feeling in the clutch (embarrassing). I just had the COW tune on my C5 and it feels like it has a lot more thrust at the start. Still trying to figure out the C7.
