It would be cool to say your ride can do it, but where are you going to show it.
there are tons of tracks and the texas mile thats run here you can do it!

Exactly. Unless it'll do it in a 1/4 there's not much point to it other than bragging rights.
If chevy didn't have the camaro and dodge didn't have the challenger, I highly doubt ford would've done that with the mustang

The challenger started the whole thing [perfect copy],ford tried with the t bird [which was a huge failure] but knocked it out of the park with the stang and the camaro is just butt ugly [does not resemble the original at all]. I think that dodge and ford are both equil in looks,interior. But chevrolet does have a horsepower edge even with that the camaro sucks. They just want to sell cars and retro/muscle style sells [us old farts trying to relive our childhood] and the younger generation can get a muscle car that is fast and drivable right off the showroom floor and can be modded to become ungodly depending on how deep your pockets are. My son is a mustang lover along with imports so i have no choice but to work on them.

For the price of a new GT i would buy it before any other new socalled muscle car plus with the amount of aftermarket applications you would have one hellofa hotrod,besides i don't like corvettes,vipers period. And a challenger [my favorite] is too expensive for what it is and the aftermarket is slim and expensive.

650hp + RWD Mustang = no traction. 530hp + AWD GT-R = 0-60 in 3.5sec. The look on a GT500 owners face when a 3.8L turbo V6 smokes them............................ priceless
