The previous owner did very tasteful and effective modifications, and I just enjoy driving it

Of course, 4 outta 5 of my peices of junk will outrun your piece on the strip, but the all original 65 GT vert nor the street/strip 85 GT fox can be considered even remotely fast if turning left/right is involved. And none blend with the "crowd", so maybe they're ok as mustangs go...

... I do not like Mustangs either, but jeez leave this poor guy alone... Irunelevens, I do agree with you that the times Maroboy28 put down are not very good for an LS1 Camaro. Stock trap speed should be 102 or greater.
I know there is altitude problems sometimes but I don't know his elevation so whatever.

My good buddy (Mach1 on this board) used to have a very quick '83 GT. Of course it looked like a POS, but it ran like a scalded dog. He knows how much I enjoyed even being around that car when it started up. But a '97 V6 automatic Mustang? You see cars like that all the time, and there is absolutely nothing special about them. It's the hundreds of thousands of absolutely boring ones that I'm talking about when I say I don't like most Mustangs.
I guess we just disagree in a minor way...but I DO get what you are saying. You like extraordinary cars...not just extraordinary mustangs...
See, I'm not dumb...just difficult.

He didn't hang with me past mid way through 2nd. LOL
It wasn't even the SRT model. Not that is really would have mattered but I could have been interesting at least.
Then just like the LT that I roasted in the 05+ GT mustang he wouldn't even look at me at the next light. LOLOL
I love my car.
