Earlier today, I raced a 2011 Mustang GT with our 2010 SHO.
This race was on a closed road. I'm going to try to make it to the track tomorrow.
Both cars have less than 500 miles. The Mustang is a 6-Speed manual with road race suspension and 19" wheels. The SHO is obviously an auto, lowered, on the stock 20's.

i like both of those new cars (5.0 buttstang and SHO) but i find it ridicules that the new mustang gt cost $34k starting... add all the bells and whistles your at 38-40k, for that you can buy a nice z06 or FRC. Now the SHO i kinda of understand why its expensive and ultimately they are trying to push the SHO in a more "luxury-sports car" much like the g series, but at the end of the day its still a Taurus. Either way im really surprised the SHO ran like it did, i expected it to be quick but not that quick id think that would compare to the g35 or maybe bmw 1 sereies in the quarter?
and im wondering if anyone is going to make a bigger turbo kit for those SHOs? Im wondering what the max boost you could put one of those through without building the bottom end.

Regarding your "it's just a Taurus" comment...have you actually driven a SHO or a new Taurus? There is nothing "it's just a Taurus" about them. These aren't the cars from the 90's. They are very nice cars and they are well worth the money IMO.
