What's up with the ford bashing? yeah, the probe was a real turd, but mustangs are very good cars...probably be my next car. It's the same sh!t if you go to a mustang forum..talking trash about imports. Personally, I have no problem with someone making a car fast, no matter what car it is. It's the "ricey" looks that I hate on any car. Ricey = huge fukking primer grey wing, lame a55 body kit (also primer grey), huge fart-cannon muffler, neon lights inside or outside...but the best of all has got to be the stickers all over the car. Now I know that a lot of you are gonna start with the sh!t slinging, so let me just say that I have seen my share of mustangs and escorts with that kind of crap plastered on them too |

he must not know how to drive then... i remember racing a 4cyl on the highway a few summbers back, it pulled nicely for a 4cly but never had the top end for above 70mph. We just played with him, cause well he kept trying to do the fly by and well he just couldn't catch up to us when we never brought the RL below 80mph. The v6's are nicer cars imho... though i'm not a huge ford fan they do make some nice tq... |

bullsh!t..mustangs are good cars. They aren't the fastest cars in the world, but neither are civics..that's not the point. just because you have a car that you've put some time and attention into doesn't mean that you've got anything on anyone. don't be a prick-waving-cock-smoker. I am also a member of a mustang forum and it seems like there's always this kind of infantile crap from people who think they can make up for the size of their prick by saying their car is reeeaaaaallly fast. Congratulations, but you're still lacking in the personality department. |

my buddy had one of those turbo probes... it was quick not fast but way quick... he'd beat my old car and lots of other 4 bangers... problem is though that stock turbo cars get beat on and don't run half as well with 50+k on them as na car will...
oh and scorch... have you ever been in a new mustang... or an old one... you are aware that they have 10000x more potential than a honda does for about 1/3 of the cost. Sure lots are shit boxes... and there aren't a lot of shit box civics? does that make your car lame or a 10 sec honda slow? NO... does the fact that there's .4 liters less displacement in the new mustang block make it any less superior to ALL of honda's cars in everything but economy? NO...

Lamborgini made a 3.5 Litre V12.. Whats your point? Those 4.6s make more power then the 5.0s did. The fact of the mater is they have way more potential then a honda ever will.:o

If you like those years, then you might think the 2005 mustang concept car is pretty cool. I definitely want one of those. You can see some pics here; http://www.stangnet.com/mustanggtcon...indexpage1.htm |

hmm...speaking of thinkers...there's a lot of eclipes drivers who act like ass-holes. same for mustang drivers...90% ass-holes. there was this b-i-t-c-h(no joke, she was a *****) today at a light in a red mustang. her lane merges into mine so i hurried up but then she tries to out-run me...so i kick it in a little and pull off to piss her off...then she floors it(not very quick...). but a ticket-happy cop was watching her show off at the next corner. ahahahahahah. ps: do mustangs have fast acceleration? because the one she had didn't seem to have much at all...she barely went faster then my civic. i think it was a 99? and i'm not looking for the "well, a mustang is much faster than a civic" s-h-i-t either. |

Easy there. Look at my sig. I have both. Just making the same generalization you made. 99 Mustang Base 99 Mustang Cobra 99 Mustang GT Depends on the model. The base is very sluggish.

unfortunately, I'd have to agree with that 90% idea. I went to a meet for some So Cal mustang club with my roommate a couple weeks ago, and with the exception of only a few, everyone there were dikheads. I wouldn't say that ricer a55holes are any less common, though. My theory is and always has been that these people who brag about their shit and put down what other people have is just an attempt to overcompensate for having a small prick.

90% of people make the other 10% look bad. This applies to everything and anything, female drivers, females in general, males, ricers, mustang drivers ...etc etc. Basically you'll find that only about 10% or less of the people you meet are worth spending time with.... cheers for b!tching about mustangs like they make bad drivers. Its the people who buy the car that make the car...

10% make the other 90% look bad? OK, I guess I can see that viewpoint. Take your average ricer (and I mean that as any car, import or not, that looks like it fell in a junk heap and some of it stuck to the car) driving down the road with his bigass double decker wing (primered, of course), body kit that looks like it's been stapled or super glued on (also with a fresh coat of primer) bling bling altezzas, stickers all over the car, those nifty little lighted replacements for your winshield wiper sprayers, badge that proclaims this pimpin-ass vehicle to be the super special Type R-SS-EX-BS-POS-U2RSOL (only one made, don't ya know)..not to mention the fart canon hanging off the back of the car that is so ****ing big it has moons circling it.....I suppose he would be driving down the street and thinking "thank god I'm part of the 10% that looks really spiffy" I guess it is all in your point of view. If you don't agree with that, go to your local insane asylum and try to convince the people there that they are crazy.
