Comparing a comdern car to a 40+ year old midsize fastback seems a bit silly.
Besides, my car is purpose built for straight line, the Stang isn't.
also: still a ford.
The point is, if you buy a stock mustang because you want a corner carver you're an idiot. The mustang can be built to handle well, but that's not really it's purpose from the factory. Most mustang guys are more concerned with straight line performance.
Well just have to wait and see what the '11 models brings, but if the gt is going to have 400+ hp, what do you think the gt500's will have? And the gt500's are evil with just a few mods... Just things to think about.
