Shoot I am still wishing they would come out a with a gear set from GMPP that would give us a better chance and a warranty.
I am also not happy with the government control aspect of GM. But under government control GM is producing the Camaro SS, Corvette GS, Corvette zo6, Corvette zr1, CTS-V... Pretty damn amazing high horsepower vehicles. I have no doubt GM will bring out packages which beat the current mustang. Ford will likely respond.

I'm pretty damned anti OBAMA, but hard to blame him for a lack of excellent performance cars from GM since GM is making the best cars it has ever made. GM's doing great cars. They will respond soon, Government motors or not!

And I'm a mustang guy!

And if you're talking about driveability, then it's definitely useable on the street.


That year will go fast.
Better plan on doing roll racing only at that HP level on the street....by the time you're done spinning the tires the other guy will have multiple car lengths on ya!

That is pretty funny. I also liked the one (now pulled) about Hitler reacting to the "rotards". Some line in there about revving up to 9000 rpm just cracked me up.

Ford have definitely done a good job with the new stang.... the M3 is a pretty high benchmark and they are very close.

I do have to agree with the understeer in the M3, it's something that's been dialed in to these sort of cars to warn drivers when they're getting close to the limit.... frankly it's not for me.

The M3 could do with a bit more torque... it's something that seems to be getting forgotten in Europe in favour of the BHP (pub bragging rights).

im just glad people are starting to see american cars are right up there with euro cars. even if by the end of the video it still shows the bias in them. god bless america indeed.
