i did a quicky google search but didnt find times for exactly an a4 4.6 gt vert and an a4 5.0 gt vert but i did find just general times (didnt specify drivetrain type). they all had the 4.6 at around 14.1 and the fox was anywhere from 14.9-16.5 (wow!). i dont look for the 1/4 mile times to favor a fox vert rather than a 4.6 vert. and FWIW im talking about the newer 99+ 4.6. not the anemic mid 90s 4.6...

*EDIT* found some...

www.car-stats.com click find stats. choose ford (duh). scroll down to mustang gt (convert). and then click on the 01 and the 93.

01 ran 14.6@96 and the fox ran 16.1 at an unknown speed. its probably between 85-90 at the very most. i race many verts in my L98 back when it was trapping low 90s and even on the highway i put good distances on them.

Well I admit it, I was wrong. I guess I am just used to never loosing in my Fox. But I am impressed that you took the time to prove me wrong.

Maybe not the fastest car to outrun, but I love what he said to him first. That was great. Makes me miss my car, when i could ask a guy in a mustang if he wanted me to show him how fast his car WASN'T.

You're right since muscle cars died in the 60's. Fbodies aren't sports cars either. Maybe you should read up on the definition of a sports car.

my friend has an 87 LX that ran a 13.8 with CAI and X-pipe on street tires. 5.0s are superior to modulars (minus new cobra's). my other friend has a 98 with gears and full exaust and he's still trying to get low 14's
