    Charger orders pile up

    People DO NOT give a **** if its a CHARGER or what a Charger looked like 30 years ago. The only people who care are dumbass people still living in the 70s. They see a roomy, 4 door sports sedan with a high powered Hemi for $30K and they want it, just like they do with the 300C. I'll take one...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    LOL, now THAT is funny. Japan is not allowed to produce cars that carry more than 280 bhp. All you had to do was LOOK at the article I posted from the Japanese version because the hp is right on there too :rolleyes: Horsepower (SAE): 280 bhp @ 6500 rpm Torque: 295 lb-ft @ 3500 rpm...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    oooohhh, 4 more hp, big frickin deal. The Japenese version carries 280 and the US carries 276. If you think 4 hp adds up to half a second difference in the quarter mile you need help.

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    From R&T's test where they obviosly had someone run it who could drive unlike the sources you have quoted :owned: Transmission: 6-speed manual Gear ratios: 2.91/ 1.94/ 1.43/ 1.10/ 0.87/ 0.69 Speed in gears: 43/ 63/ 86/ 112/ 112*/ 112* Final drive ratio: 4.58:1 0-60 mph: 4.3 sec...

    05 Mustang on Discovery 11:00PM (est)

    Dont be a dumbass, it has alot more to offer then just the steering wheel and brakes, to quote from SCC: "Just look at the EVO's window sticker. It reads like the spec sheet of an enthusiast's dream car. For the base MSRP of $28,987, you get all-wheel drive with limited-slip center and rear...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    What retard ran the quarter in an MR at 13.3? Please post the link so I can laugh, they are high 12 cars when driven by someone who knows how to drive. The MR is lighter and has a bigger turbo then the standard Evo and you REALLY think it runs the same times? Dont be a dumbass.

    05 Mustang on Discovery 11:00PM (est)

    Now thats more like it, THAT is what I want!! Why cant Ford put that thing out for us? If Mitsu can put out a race car like the Evo for $30K, there is no reason in hell Ford cant put that car out for under $40K. One of those guys nailed it when he said that with the normal production cars they...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    No, I am still waiting for the 05 to come out so I can drive one before I make a final desicion. However, from what I am seeing early on, I am not favoring the GT. MT has a pretty weak test with one and already complaing about the back end getting light, the steering response being weak and the...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    Ya, and your point? That trap speed is still weak, go look at trap speeds of other cars with that time and they are all 103-105 mph. If it gets to 60 in a little over 5 seconds and doesnt clear the quarter till 13.6 (I doubt thats even true given the low trap speed) at a pathetic 99 mph, that...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    You guys may be right, but you are smokin something if you think the 05 will run low to mid 13's stock with that ****ty trap speed of 99 mph, there are V6s that trap higher then that. It will be a high 13 car.

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    Its just an internet site, they dont post every single detail of their ride in a car like magazines do. Go look at any of the other cars they have there and you wont find a review, they dont do that. I dont want to hear some reporter ramble on for 10 pages about how the car drives, I just want...

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    Incorrect. They did have estimated times up for the last few months, it said (est.) next to all the times but since they tested one last week, they took the estimates off and those are the times they got. 0-60 mph: 5.2 sec 0-100 mph: 13.2 sec Quarter Mile: 13.9 sec @ 104 mph

    Hmmm...call me crazy but I have never seen a Legacy with Recaro racing seats, a Momo steering wheel, suede door panels, STI specific gauges or racing pedals :owned:

    Here is what the 05 Mustang GT REALLY runs

    Those of us with any sense at all knew something was wrong with that MT test because a car that runs a 13.6 quarter traps alot higher then 99 mph. Fast Autos has tested a manual and posted on their site and they are usually more believable then the magazines. This test seems more like it, you...

    Nov. issue of Motor Trend: Auto GT goes 13.6 @ 99

    Ahhh, another brilliant argument from someone who has never driven the car he is talking about. I have driven the STi many times on the road and the track, and since you obvioulsy never have I will clue you in. If you take the car to redline and drop the clutch, guess what happens? NOTHING!! The...

    Nov. issue of Motor Trend: Auto GT goes 13.6 @ 99

    You obviously know nothing about the car you are talking about, have you even SEEN one? It has a little thing called a "rev limiter" which will not allow you to rev it to the redline and drop the clutch. The STi's clutch and tranny is very durable, I know several guys who wind to 5-6K RPMs and...

    13.0, 12.9 :shrug: Whats so hard to believe? As I said, a good driver can run high 12s, I see them do it at the track all the time.

    Nov. issue of Motor Trend: Auto GT goes 13.6 @ 99

    Finally, someone who gets what I was trying to say. The Evo and STi are the most complete race cars you can buy stock for $30K. Everything from the racing suspension and Momo steering wheel, to the awesome Brembo brakes, Recaro racing seats and sticky tires. By the way...an STi will blow past a...

    Nov. issue of Motor Trend: Auto GT goes 13.6 @ 99

    Ya, I understand, I understand you dont know what you are talking about. Who would want Brembo brakes that stop on a dime? a Momo steering wheel that controls one of the quickest steering responses in any production car ever built? A world class suspension that allows you to slice and dice a...

    Nov. issue of Motor Trend: Auto GT goes 13.6 @ 99

    LOL. I'm just giving you guys a hard time and arguing my case that yoiu have to respect what others cars can do and dont just say they 'suck" when you have never driven one. There are alot of great cars available now for great prices so dont buy an 05 GT just because its the NEW Mustang. Go...
