Are your still confused about your Mustangs.

BOSS LS is a wannabe ZL1
2013 is a wannabe ZL1

Dogs have nothing to do with it.

top model vs top model is always there.

Cars don't drive themselves.
Making excuses for the Mustangs lack of sophistication you are.

I think this war is good for both sides though. We are getting better cars quickly.
You are absolutely right and I agree 100%. The GT500 should win and if it doesn't it will be an epic fail. Just like if the ZL1 didn't beat the LS it would be a fail.

ZL1 mule in 2008. My neighbor is a Ford dealer. I get to drive every new Mustang. Nothing he has brought over equals my Mustang in term of handling. He keeps trying and we have fun comparing notes.

I don't see how that could ever make sense, unless of course you're so biased that only when your car does it, it's a win.

the zl1 is the top dog camaro, vs the top dog mustang which is the gt500.
It would be very fair between the two top dogs, not top dog vs little brother.

top model vs top model is fair with any car.
top model vs mid model makes sense to you?

you're definitely not helping your point either, it's always been top model vs top model as far as fair goes.

for now do I start a post with that subject? do you can understand? lol

do you agree on this...

the ZL1 is the top camaro and the GT500 is the top mustang?
YourBlindingBias...

You may want to go through the post's, I never removed anything from your post and I was only reffering to your HP post. I was not part of your conversation with IOM.

You honestly believe it's not up to the driver whether you get into an accident or not, driving hard?

It sounds like you were saying you already tested a 2013 gt500, you mean you tested PAST GT500's right? I am assuming from your posts that your neighbor already brought over a 2013 gt500 for you to test and you concluded your testing?

S/TC saves lives and the collective axxes of thousands of people every day.

The sky is blue.
Water is wet.
The ZL1 advanced S/TC is superior to the dated tech in a Mustang.

You are not here to contribute to the community. You are obviously here to do nothing but argue. This is exactly why I have no tolerance for these threads. They deteriorate into rubbish.
