I would have rather spent $20000 on an 06 GTO Auto that has around 15k miles on it. Then bought a tuner, slicks, cam, headers, put a 150 shot on it and ran high 10s or low 11s. The GTO's interior is far superior to any mustang interior and the GTO handles like a dream.

Anyways nice car though.



2012 Ford Mustang | View Full Engine Specifications | Ford.com

5.0L Ti-VCT V-8 Engine
If the GTO wasn't so damned heavy, I'd agree. Good for straight line though.
 
The ignorance of this board mirrors the same stupidity of the SVT boards except they at least have newer/nicer cars so it makes more sense.. :ohdamn:


You forgot one

The best way to piss off, Mustang, cobra and shelby owners, is to get beat by a 4banger


Actually this doesn't bother them that much, contrary to belief. You'd be far more pissed to get beat than he is because win or lose, he'd still take your girl. :thumb:



why i would buy a 1 or 2 year older corvette and have more power and a more desirable for collecting or resale car in my opinion. Plus the vette imho handles and accelerates alot smoother than the stang.


Another stupid post... The 302 BOSS WILL/IS a limited collectors item already. The resale value of of a BOSS far exceeps that of a Corvette. My next car will be a vette as I have stated many times but that's for totally different reasons. Your comments on acceleration and handling are also mute. I assume you have no idea what your are talking about since I bet your life you've never driven either car. :banghead:



If you had enough cash to not have a payment, why didn't you go for a used 2009 GTR? I'm not a fan of Mustangs... or any domestic, for that matter.


Says the guy that TECHNICALLY owns a Domestic. (Better think long and hard what car is in your avatar, who designed it, who built it, and where it was made)

Wow, this forum has gone to the depths. When ever I try to defend our community from some ass-hat on another forum I get to come back here and realize its even worse than the sh*t talkers led it to be.:(

There is good and bad everywhere I suppose. I just hate how closed minded some of the people here are with regards to other cars. DSMs are great for what the are, but this elitist attitude that most DSMers get the second they put a 16g on their car got old years ago.

:(

Its not even an elitist attitude. Its an out right bias that is a means to justify their lively hood. 99% of the haters couldn't afford the car if they wanted it. I use 99% because of the slim chance that someone finds out their grand parents had old stock in Microsoft and Lowes. Point being, they bash on nicer and legitimately 'better' cars out of spite, jealousy and envy yet have themselves convinced that they are too cool for school.

Like the kids from way back in HS that wore the thrift store BS and got teased by everyone but they had themselves convinced that they were hot sh*t and too cool for brand names to the point that they HONESTLY believed that they were in fact 'better' than someone else who has more when the fact of the matter is they just don't have a choice.


I'm sitting here looking at the cars of the guys who seem to have the biggest mouths and lets just say, my point stands. They are the equivalent of this -

Randomly, I think it's retarded saying things like "This car will attract more women" or "they'd still take your girl".


If you're dating a girl who is only with you for your material possessions, then I feel bad for you son!
 
Nice car! 1 question, does it have the same crap transmission that everyone with the new 5.0 is complaining about?
 
Love the new Mustang... it is a great platform. Ford has really stepped up their game in the past few years in terms of power, quality, and efficiency. For that, I give them a ton of credit. :)

Would love to own a new 5.0L if I had the cash.

Now in terms of the Shelby, yours is running the 5.4L, right? I thought the Shelby versions were not getting the 5.0L until next year? Or maybe it was the 2012 MY? I do know that the GT's were getting it first, and the Shelby versions still had the 5.4L.

Idk what all the "hate" is about, really. A nice car is a nice car no matter what it is. The only problem I have with Mustangs is that they are a "me too" car. as in:

Person 1 : "I have a Mustang!"
Person 2: "Me too!"

;)

In fact, I have a 1995 5.0L LOL...

OP: Nice car, love it.... they are beautiful!

No, I'm quite sure the GT500s have a much stronger gearbox. I remember reading somewhere that new 5.0 owners are swapping to GT500 trannys.

Only the Shelby GT350 has the 5.0, the newest GT509 has basically the same engine that was in the Ford GT.

I just chalk it up to the average age of the typical DSMer these days. I can understand the loyalty/pride factor but sometimes it gets ridiculous. Not everyone likes Mustangs, I get that too. But the reality is, that's a pretty nice car. And our cars are old and outdated. They're still cool and cheap to make fast, but let's not allow our loyalty to the DSM platform completely blind us.

You'd be an idiot if you took that to be literal.

This isn't a movie. Contrary to belief, life is nothing like F&F and you're not Ja Rule worrying about Monica every time you race.

The point is its a nicer vehicle and that's not even arguable.

Nicely Spoken!!
Its just hard to respect most Mustang drivers due to their big heads when they drive around town, and I think that is what shapes most peoples image on the mustang!
Another thing, I LOVE the Mustang from the first one made, but I feel in the past few years Ford has OVER produced them making them not as valuable and rare as they used to be! There are soo many of them on the road its crazy! Im a Ford man but this ideal to make more money then keeping the image of an icon is sickening to me! IMO
Now I hate Chevy but I think the did right on the image of the Camero because the didn't over produce them and its Semi Rare to see one driving around!

But I disagree with what you said. Ford is the only company out of the big three that are really trying, well at least with the mustang. If you look in the past few years they have made limited numbers of the Bullitt, Mach 1, GT500, GT350, and the Boss 302. Around here I see a whole lot more new cameros than new Mustangs. I do agree with the whole overall production numbers but if demand is that high then they must try to meet them.

You'd be an idiot if you took what I said, seriously.


The point is I already said it was, a page or two back. :thumb:

I know what your saying, its just the mustang has more drivers increasing the ratio of R.I.C.E.R./Enthusiast attitudes making it easier to dislike them due to the drivers! And it isn't as rare to me!
But I guess down here they sell more, I could count 10-15 every time I drive to the store(10min drive)!
But you can point out the real enthusiast when they drive around and I will always appreciate them!

I will Always love the mustang just not all the drivers that think they rule the road! (And that goes for all car as well)
I love cars, and I like others that love cars, just not kids or meat heads that drive them sometimes!

I'll agree with this, I used to hate a lot of cars, until I started realizing it wasn't the CARS I was hating, it was the douchey drivers. Douchebag drivers are in every make/model of car nowadays. That's why I don't hate honda's or mustangs or anything like that anymore. I hate the retards as a whole, not just one set. :p
