I'm really shocked that it even stuck with the cobra. Being a 4200 lb pig and all and the fact that most mustang owners will tell you a hemi ain't **** lol.

Hey, Captain Defensive, his comment was lightheartedly made because of the **** 03 Cobra owners get around here for having a blower. See Lawhead's sig? You can chill out now.

maybe some of you cobra guys can answer a question about the challenger race we think it was longer than a quarter mile before the finish the cobra shifts to 4th gear what gear should the cobra be in at the end of the quarter

It's funny seeing everyone take shots at the new Stang in other parts of the forum and other sites...it's alright, LS1's & LS3's got their asses handed to them enough the past few years by a smaller motored Ford let them get their shots in while they can. Probably makes them feel better.

Maybe the camaro got its *** handed to it. But ls3 vettes was still spanking the 5.0 lol. Me i like the new Mustang finally has irs witch i have been waiting for. And i hope it puts out at least 450hp to compete with the LT1. If it does my 2012 will be traded in for one

One of those guys I always get a good laugh from the guys who immediately jump up to the 2 seater Vette.

10 years ago people would laugh if you compared the two, now people frantically scramble to do so.

Well i could buy a used ls3 vette for the same price i paid for my 5.0 js. The 5.0 isn't leaps and bounds ahead of the ls3 at all. Yes i have no problem with a ls3 camaro hell my 392 charger gives my 5.0 alot better run. After owning a new Camaro to me the L99 is the only way to go in that car.

Yeah, the two definitely shouldn't be compared, that's just foolish. IMO. Although, the Mustang is doing a hell of a lot better battling the Corvette than Ford's original competitor for it...the Thunderbird, lol.

So you think a Mustang and a Vette are direct substitutes for one another?

Most Ford guys seem to think that so why not? Plenty of people compare the GT500 to a Z06. And we all know the Z is the better car.

Stupid people are everywhere... The two aren't comparable, and yes, from just about any measurable performance standpoint, the Z06 is far superior. Not even debatable.

Whoa whoa, Kimosabe. I just wanted a yes or no. Most Ford guys? Is your viewing of videos of Mustangs and Vettes racing why you think Ford guys compare to the vette? You see, in my experience, I see the vette brought up to try to allow the white elephant to peacefully leave the room, that white elephant being the 6.2 Camaro that's slower than the Mustang.

How'd this go from 5.0 & LS3 to GT500 & Z06 discussion? I certainly didn't make that jump, YOU did, and you're doing exactly what I'm talking about regarding "comparisons" and leapfrogging to different models.
