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 means it really fizzles in the top end power. Hate to bring it up once agin but it seems like a good comparison, the Evo wil hit 60 in the same time but will run the quarter in the low 13s and trap at about 104 mph. So it seems to me (as I have said all along) the Evo will be capable of beating a Mustang GT in a quarter mile race as well as spanking it on a track. What does Ford want us to pay $26K or more for again? nifty colored gauges and re-designed look? Get back to me when Ford actually gives the Mustang some balls.
I knew you would go back to the EVO again. So again, whay have you not bought the clearly (In your mind) superior EVO?
By the way wasn't the 05 an automatic? So the manual should be even faster. And you don't know what the gear ratio in the automatics are. So maybe it ran out of top end in the auto.
