    And for the price/performance issue. Completely missing the point on that one.

     

    You can buy a fox body mustang and have it running 8's for 20k if you really wanted to. Now would it be fair to say every car that can't do 8's for 20k is overprice? pos? No, it wouldn't.

     

    The Ford GT cost 150k, and so what if its not the fasted car out there for the money? You're not buying it for top speed/acceleration, you're buying it because it's a FORD GT. One of my cousins owns 2 Lamborghini's. An older Diablo, and a new Murcielago. I wouldn't call them overpriced at all, you get what you pay for, exclusivity.

    thats why its called tuning cars my friend, you dont run a Stock car with just a bodykit and a wing?

     

    :waggle:

     

    That's why they're called ricers in the first place :D

     

    And back on the truck issue. Even with all that power, what can they do? Straight line. Theres no such thing as taking corners in a truck. In which case, if I wanted to go fast, I'd buy a car (which I did), if I want to haul sht and go offroading, I'd buy a truck (also did).

     

    Turbo Deisel Trucks aren't the Godsend you make them out to be.

    im sorry if it cant beat the ferrari youve wanted since you were seven, but for 20 grand its a nice car

     

    It can't beat...well..really anything, not with 0-60 at near 9 seconds. I don't care if a car is slow, but with that 2fast2furious body kit and GINORMOUS wing, it's a joke. Not to mention the dual exhaust tips Hyundai puts on there.

     

    And the only Ferrari I ever wanted was the F430, and I'll eventually have one :)

    and by the way, a 7000 lb truck that can run 12 sec 1/4 miles is pretty darn good. i've got a video of an F350 with a cummins (they ditched the powerjoke) that is running in the 9s. that's about a 8000 lb truck. just to let you know. not to mention you can take them off road if you wanted to, haul or tow whatever...

     

    now can your car do that?

     

    Sure can't.

     

    But then again, the new Veyron does 0-60 in a bit under 3 seconds. Anybody can make any car do ANY thing. All it takes is money.

     

    And theres nothing special about turbocharged deisels, all you do is cram a sh*tload of boost in there. Hell theres HUGE gains from just reprogramming the ECU and picking up a cat-back. Too boring for my taste. If they came that way from the factory, THEN I'd be impressed.

    RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!

     

    well, itll Outrun Your motorcycle with Some mileage to Spare

     

    Contrary to ricer belief, body kits DO NOT add horsepower

     

    Get a diesel... they get great mileage and can be set up to run FAST.

     

    also:

     

    They cirlcled the problem and highlighted it in blue

     

    Oh yeah, all the speed freaks are out there driving diesels. I wipe the floor with the powerstokes and cummins trucks around here.

     

    Did a Cobra destroy you at a light or something? Guess everyone has their own reasons to fear the blue oval ;)

    Saw that on the SVT and Buick boards as well. Actually, The car belonged to someones ex-wive's husband/boyfriend. Sold it on craigslist for 10k.

     

    Congrats on the Mustang! Looks great. Just needs a couple things to look even better.

     

    Lose the Mustang graphics

    Lose the trim on the doors

    Change to a GT or aftermarket hood

    Lower it or add 18-19in wheels

    The new Hemi's are a joke.

     

    Awesome Hillslam, if I needed a luxury car, and the CLS55 was sold out, I'd get the CTS-V :)

     

    I recently fixed my exhaust leaks, picked up a 3in downpipe, and a few various other things. I'll get a pic up here of me going through the traps in the low 11's ;)
