I really really like the Gt500 especially in those photos. We had a 08 grey with grey wheels and just loved the look. Too bad driving it immediatly noticed the regular LS3 vette would pull without a doubt on it. Just way too heavy and gearing seemed wide. Would i still love to own one, hell ya. I do agree with above the traction is a major issue with the GT500 and unless they figure out a way to put wider rims and tires and better suspension that 650hp rating is useless and would be hard to put down that power.

LOL @ OP. You completely fail at making and posting in threads. You're giving Mustang owners a bad name by being here. I have absolutely no problems with Mustang owners being here, because most actually post constructive threads and dont act like a 15 year old high school girl just looking for drama and arguements, but you sir... Fail. Why do you even come here? Just to start fights and pretend like your almighty 5.0 is better than anything else on the road? Get over yourself and stay off the internet.

Also since when is the mustang made to compete with a Z06/ZR1? But do what makes you feel better.



On the repost. Sorry.

Let me get this straight.

You're ok concluding it's superior by comparing estimated figures to actual figures when it concerns some cars (ones you don't own) which are already being sold, but when it comes to comparing it to your car you say "Is it out yet... nope... Plus I wouldn't buy it till see what it could actually do. Some testing etc."

Man I'm glad you play for Ford

That and it doesn't help the early GT500s that the LS3 Vettes are stupid fast in stock form. The GT500s are definitely nice looking rides and can move out with the right mods though.

As far as the '13 GT500 goes, we won't know its true capabilities until it comes out. Pointless thread.

Agreed. This place would fail horribly if we didn't have owners of other platforms in here helping out with cross education. It makes things way more fun. We are all car enthusiasts any way you slice it. Turning everything into drama with brand loyal opinions is a waste.

You should see him flipping it around and touting the LS engines on Mustang websites.

Look Ohio, we know you get your dick hard when you hear the word Mustang. Some of us hear really like that car, some guys won't (personally I LOVE it). It's going to be bonkers fast for a factory Mustang. But please, stop being an annoying douchefuck and learn to post **** where it belongs. We all know you don't contribute anything to this site outside of this section (if you can even call your fanboy-ism "contributing"...which I wouldn't), so please, do us all a favor and learn how to use the forum. As stated, it's a repost. You should have looked around the site for a thread in the proper section before you busted a nut posting it in the SR&K section. Seriously, your **** gets old. Don't bother trying to call me an LSX/GM fanboy either, because most of the usuals around here know I am the exact opposite, I can appreciate just about anything. But seriously, you obviously just want to start **** by posting this kind of thing (with that title) in the harshest section on this site. I mean seriously, it doesn't take a genius to realize that overweight and underpowered cow of a Camaro will be getting slaughtered by this new GT500, but I know you couldn't contain the rager in your pants any longer and had to let it out.

The Z06 will still beat it on the street and at the track with 145 HP less. Try again ford. Keep humping your pony and flexing your stang muscles on an LS site, you almost have us converted.
Why the **** would you compare a Mustang to a Z06? Face it, GM doesn't and hasn't had **** for the Mustang since 2003. They should have let the Fbody die in 2002, bring it back was a failure.

I think the best thing GM can do is like they did in the beginning...wait until Ford puts out the Mustang and then copy it. That's the only way they will stay on top.

Not that it matters, but technically the new Camaro isnt a F-Body.
