Automobile Magazine: 40th Anniv 370Z versus new Mustang GT

GT500 replaces the Cobra. I am so glad the Stangs are back on top. Makes me remember when I was a kid and envied one of my mother's friend's son

GT500 replaces the Cobra.

I am so glad the Stangs are back on top. Makes me remember when I was a kid and envied one of my mother's friend's son with his black 5.0. That thing would eat Camaros all day and night. We actually saw him street racing once downtown when we were coming back from an event my dad was being honored yet. My parents are so cool, they did not snitch on him. Great.

That said, I just watched that vid from a few pages back. That Evolution Performance Stang is Armageddon. Just sick. Red and M4A1, when are you doing that to your 5.0's???!!?! Dont S/C them, keep them N/A!!!! I still go to most of the professional drag events at Firebird Raceway with my dad. I can't wait to watch some of those 5.0's bad boys running. DANG I can't wait.

And the Juke is cool. I thought about getting one for my DD, but I think I will pay my wife's CX7 off and get her a CX9. I will keep the CX7 as a DD and tune it!! AWD and the MS3 motor baby!!! I just have to shampoo the seats due to my darn girls putting their feet on them. No biggie. Late!!

Dont get me wrong, theres nothing like the throttle response of an all N/A high power beast under the hood, but to build and stroke the motor, it'll end up costing about the same as a Kenne Bell kit, which I plan on adding shortly after arriving in Germany (cant do it before because it wont pass european emissions testing). I'm going to have my fun with it, believe that, but its also going to be a full weight DD as well and a weekend warrior from time to time. And I agree, i'm liking the rekindling of this muscle car war, wish my dad was still around to see how everything is turning out.
