Because Chevy has a 50-year head start. No matter that Ford could engineer a Vette-killer at about the same price point... it won't have the immense cachet of a Vette (or, in its stratum, a Mustang). You'll note that Mustang competition comes and goes, comes and goes, and the real pony just keeps on sellin' and winning hearts.
I'm a third-gen Ford man and loathe bowties... but I don't care to see a Ford "Vette." In fact, it was a close toss between 707 and a Z06... and 33 years of wanna won out. This time.
