My personal favorite was the "Ford Fanboy Douchebagz" should apologize to LT/LS guy.

(if this is quoted by Redfire, he will bring my car into it out of left field)

And what is racing him going to do for you? Prove who has bigger nads or something? As a matter of fact, how did that have anything to do with the initial debate? Just shows how ignorant you are and how easy it is to frustrate you.

Nothing you said above has any bearing to his point. None at all. Just a bunch of smack-talk.

I'm not the one making overly defensive posts. ;-)

I haven't seen knee jerking like this since the Termi came out.

I spelled it out pretty clearly already, around 100 pounds came out of the car and similar weight went back into it. Why is that so hard for certain people to understand?

I think some of you expect these cars to weigh near what a GT500 does, and that just isn't the case. The Edmonds test car weighed 3620 and that was a premium GT with leather, sync, navigation, power seats, Brembo brakes, 19" wheels/tires, strut tower brace, all that extra interior trim, lighting, speakers/amps, crap I don't have and didn't want. I wanted the quickest GT to start with, so the only option is the automatic on the base car. If I would have ordered it rather than buy it from dealer stock I would have done the spoiler delete, but no other changes. The car weighed 3475 bone *** stock.
I'm not involved in this but fergeyflier has a base 5.0 automatic and trapped 110-112mph consistently one night with less than ideal 60fts, bone stock. Just a reference point.

I wasnt talking defensively. Im talking from the stand point of you being in every 5.0 thread for like a minimum of 100 posts per thread. Then 90% of those posts are of no value to the thread either. Mostly because all you speak of is youtube wisdom with 0 first hand experience.

I didn't know you were required to buy a 5.0 to talk about them.

Kevin is a mustang fanboy whos only purpose on this site is to defend them to the bitter end. He knows everthing there is to know about cars and can back up all his knowledge with youtube videos. The fact that you own a GM based car proves to him that you have no first hand experience with anything therefore everything you say about them is null and void! Did you know that all bolton 2V 4.6l GTs can run mid 12's?

He posts like a 16ry old kid. I could see him trolling lambo forums as a die hard ferrari owner too. Oh and of course backed by youtube videos of none of his cars.

Were you this big of a fanboi back in 03? Did the termi inspire you to get a pos GT and be slow?

Cars don't have coat tails...

Oh come on! People are getting too bent out of shape over nothing!

If you can't have fun, or aren't having fun, why even bother?
