I have some friends (who are brothers) that both have had newer model mustangs.  Seems like they were in the shop half of the time.

A 1997 Toyota Supra with about $1200 in mods would get you the same result and you wouldn't be driving a pos ford.

bro, i had a 97 supra until less than a year ago...there is no comparison at all between the 2...i have built, raced, and driven a lot of things over the years..and this is one of the more impressive things ive driven...i had a whole lot more than $1200 into my supra. the RWHP was higher than the cobra...but the cobra still had more torque and all the cobras power was in a usuable RPM range...unlike any supra lol

thats always been the long running supra joke..whats the diferrence between a 600hp, and a 1000hp supra? nothing! and thats because none of the 1000hp supras power is good in a usuable rpm range...dyno queen..

that being said i really like the supra..from the body design down to the engine..just a cool little car..probably build a new one in the next couple of years

supras are dyno queenz, plain and simple. There are literally dozens of 1000hp supras running around and about 2 can put down a decent time, plus they always want to roll race because theyre fags and their cars cant get moving unless theyre already going 60.

It's funny to see one of these high hp Supras at the drag strip. They will run mid 12's at 140 mph.

I know, everytime I ran I to a 1000hp sypra guy in houston, I always said 'nice car, pity it'll mever outrun a car with half its power'

I alwayd got a prompt 'fuck you', followed by a 'lets race from 60 then well see who wins'

at which point I laugh and call them a vagina for building a car that cant do anything, cant drag race, cant road race, cant circle track race... can only go 60-160. Lol.

My neighbor owns a 2014 GT500. I have driven it and raced it with my 01 Vette. The Mustang just feels heavy.

listen as the owner of an 03 z06 don't even try to tell me it compares to a 2014 gt 500

Your Z06 should handle better than the GT500. It's better balanced and ~600 lbs lighter.

There's no replacement for displacement when it comes to engines.

Fast.

 Most people only think they want to go fast. You go out and push a car or bike to the edge and it can get pretty scary.

 I did some work for a guy on his "fast" Mustang and then he let me drive it with him in the passenger seat.

 I hammered on it and threw it hard into some off camber corners. He might have shit himself a bit.

 He sold the car within a week and bought a big Lincoln.

Only supercar I ever drove was my cousin's Nissan GTR, which he had tuned/modified to the maximum. Needless to say I couldn't imagine anything being faster than that - esp. 0-60 it was RIDICULOUS.

I have many bikes and agree..  nothing beats 200 hp on a 400 lbs machine
