Wait... I thought whenever you post I'm supposed to "know what's up" and cower in fear like all those other 5.0s that see you on the road, apparently.

Not everyone can Steve a mustang though. Apparently you have to be born with that ability :icon17:

Answer: Because Steve traded his Z in for a Mustang.

:iagree:

But seriously though, if you haven't driven or ridden in the new 5.0's then you don't know what you're talking about. I had my doubts at first just like you, but after getting a ride in Steve's 5.0 I have seen first hand what it is capable of and it is very impressive. I haven't had a chance to drive one myself yet, but it does handle pretty well. Also taking into account that it has been able to keep up with the E92 M3 on a track in various magazine tests, I don't think there's any reason to doubt its capabilities.

Reason 1: Ford (I've had plenty of issues with them in the past, Ford Exploder anyone?)
Reason 2: SRA (get with the times!)
Reason 3: power compensation for what it lacks in handling, i.e. it's not a balanced car.

Biased, yes. But I don't care.

m4a1mustang 07-06-2012 08:28 AM

Balance? Balance is what its praised for. Very balanced car!

At least you're honest.

1) Ford has stepped up their game recently, especially with the mustang. Much better quality now than in the past.
2) Does it matter if it still kicks everyone else's *** in it's price range?
3) Moar powah = moar better, duh!

You can't. It is useless to try. Even if you can take it in a sprint, the second that a corner appears, it will disappear in the distance in a cloud of hype.

Yeah, because most of us here associate with 350Z's.

Nice try, Mr. 2 posts. Come see me on the track some time, huh?

Hmmmmmm...........

33,505 post in less than two years probably means you spend more time in a computer chair then on a track! So, ok! Next time I'm in charm city I will look you up. Wherever that is..........

Oh noes!
Random person trash talking another car!!! Whatever will we do......:icon14:

Honestly, the FR-S/BR-Z are both decent cars, but in a different bracket AND market. This is not a negative against the car, but just makes it not a very good comparison to the Z, Mustang GT, etc.

:tiphat: so astute! But I'm tracking the car in October, and I've probably driven my Z faster and harder on tracks than you ever will in your hardtop Miata.

Is he 2 Chainz cousin?

Speaking of which when I walk into a meeting I like to introduce myself like rappers do on songs before they start....but I think I am going to start using my forum handle for these purposes.

Sorry for the off topic but all this talk of these Veyron killers have become a bit much...
