He was so pissed afterwards that he sat on the tarmac for an hour next to his car sulking like a lil beotch. Came to work this monday and said he was trading it in for a Brembo 3.73 Premium GT, I LOL'ed.

:icon18::icon18::icon18: That's pretty awesome.

^^ haha yeah, im pretty sure if i asked him if he wanted to trade there would be zero hesitation.

I never understood why those Roush guys buy that crap car for as much as it costs instead of buying a real car in the same price range like the GT500. M4, perhaps you can chime in.

LOL nice kill M4!

Oddly, a metal piece came flying out from the bottom of his car and all of a sudden (granny shifting and all) he was passing me. I had to hit my secretz hidden NOS button to win. By an inch but hey... you can ask anyone..

Status probably. Unless you get one of their supercharged models it doesn't really make any sense to get one. But the Roush cars are generally better "values" than Saleen or Shelby if you insist on buying a pre-modded car.

neon is a neon but you got raped by a neon.:stirthepot:

The Z takes nearly 6 seconds to do 5-60 (5.8), while the GT500 takes 4.5. It is a very considerable difference.

A lot of reviews came up with a time much closer to 5 secs for the z
