First off welcome to the site George. IMO, I think it has nothing to do with more than the car has just become an American icon. Chevy came up with a design more than forty years ago in 1967 and America fell in love with it. From there, manufacteurers saw a need in the market and capitalized on it. There are other cars, such as Mustangs, Chevelles, Cudas that are just as nice, but until there is a market for it, manufacturers won't invest money, time, R & D, etc into it until they feel they can sell a product. The Market for Mustangs is slowly growing. As far as performance, that all has to do with they way a car is built, regardless of make and model.
