So I think it did indeed have 8k in perf options.

It could have been optioned out for the price difference between base and tested.



BASE PRICE: $54,995
PRICE AS TESTED: $64,770

Options: $9775.00

We're you not replying to this post when you mentioned salesmen?

I didn't ask a question that would be answered with 'because'.

It's Friday night. Maybe it's not your day. Maybe you've had a few wobbly-pops tonight. I dunno. But I'm done being cross-examined by somebody that is currently orbiting Pluto

This is how it went:

GT500 vs SS - Not Fair (horsepower difference)

ZL1 vs Boss 302 LS - Fair (Ford's track Mustang vs Chevy's track Camaro)

ZL1 vs 2013 GT500 - Not Fair (the GT500 is a 2013 MY and ZL1 is a 2012 MY)

Your argument just lost any credibility when you said the 550 hp gt500 vs the 420hp camaro was not fair because of the hp difference, but the 580 hp camaro to the 444 hp boss was fair.

And anyone else believe this is not a fair comparison bc one is 13 and one is a12?

Will never be able to top the Camaro's sexy hips. They still get me everytime I see one.

Dude duct tape is too expensive, I just use painters tape. Glue? Man nobody in there right mind would use something that permanent on a ford, if you can't fix it or repair it daily, why buy a ford?

10,000 miles? Dude come on no car goes that far on one of those, I got about 500 miles out of my last one, it tore through the floor pan and almost killed me haha, I love my ford cause it's such a death trap; it's like playing Russian roulette every time I get in it.


10,000 mile drivelines, pft. What next, 100,000 mile warranty's? Ha that'll never happen
