Ya your so right, who am I to respond to people that **** talk. Sorry but I dont think someone who a drives a 10 year old stock 4th gen has any room for bashing on anyone or telling me what I should drive! And your wrong, I dont have anything to prove I am just an ******* when I feel like being one.

I never bashed you or your car. If youve paid any attention, which you haven't, youd see that I've actually complimented the 5th gen for what it is. You are very sensitive haha. You need a diet w less estrogen in it. And oh yes, I forgot that the fact I drive a 4th gen makes me < you by default. How silly. I didn't tell you what you should drive either. You are like a bitchy, ill-educated car girl, but male...i think.

I guess you forgot that one huh...

What is so hard to get man... why would I want to build a 4th gen or C5 when they been built to death over the last how many years or because it cheaper! I wanted something new with a new platform to play with, not copy everyone elses ****. Ask them what worked for them and copy there junk just because its cheaper. I dont care its a little heavy, I like that it has IRS and not the same old ****, something new to me! I like that there are not a bunch of proven setups yet, that give me time to figure out what works for me and report back its part of the fun of hot rodding. So what I should do.. is do what I am doing and having fun with something new, not the same old **** I did in the past.

So you wanted a "new" that really isnt new, platform that is inferior, extra points for smarts there. and last I checked IRS is far from new, oh wait...didnt C5s AND C4s and gtos and.....a bunch of other cars have IRS....

Oh and what have you done for mods on your car, oh right, LTs and an intake... glad your really stepping up for the 5th gen crowd and paving the way for proven setups and doing things different.

There arnt many proven setups for 5th gens, but there are lots of amazing set up for the new stangs, and the 392 dosn't need a proven set up to whoop your ***. So why not get a c6 with the same if not better NEW ******* engine....oh wait, people already have C6s my bad. Hope you never pass another 5th gen ss, don't wanna be a look alike.

And fyi, I see more 5th gens then anything, so My 4th gen if far more unique then your fat ugly 5th gen.

You sound like a total poser cause all you care about is being different, well your just like everyone else who wants to be different, way to stand out... lol

I'm leaving now, enjoy trolling.

I think the issue is more people bashing the gen5. Of course we will take offense to it. Yeah a stock 392 is faster than a stock SS or 5.0. At least the aftermarket is wide open for i gen5 and the mustang. As far as preference, I like the SS, but I have never been a Ford or dodge guy, although they all perform well. And lastley, why the 4th vs 5th gen in so many threads? All this does is go back and forth with people that can talk but not prove ****. I have seen it from both sides.

All this rant says is buy the fastest car stock which is bullshit. There are choices, not everyone wants a 4th gen or 5.0 or challenger. Buy what you want and mod or not and have fun. WTF is with the hate?

Agreed. As long as you LIKE your car and it makes YOU happy who cares what others think?
Putting down other cars though is where the hate starts....

Cobranotch did you trial fit that car to make sure you can fit in it?

It gets old seeing so many "you got a fat ***, heavy, slow, ugly 5th gen". Its a really great car but It bought it because it impressed me, not to impress other folks.
