Your sig is sick. What mods do you have done to the GT?

No. From what I hear, that is the total package, the best bang for the buck for under 100k.

steeda CAI, kooks long tube headers, corsa exhaust, dyno tuned.

Steve,
As one who lived the "heyday" of the muscle car era, I can assure you the Mustang big-blocks (particularly the 428 Super Cobra Jet and Boss 429) were muscle cars.
The only GTOs that were relevant muscle cars "on the street" were the 1964-1966 tri-power (three 2-barrel carbs) models.
Truly the "hot" street cars were the Chevys with solid lifter "Rat" motors (396/427/454) and Mopars with the 440 Six Pack (again, three 2 barrel carbs) and 426 Hemi motors.

lol last and best sports under 100k...M3...fuggeeddouubbooddiit

Details... details... :icon17:

I agree with you about the big block Mustangs. Those were definitely muscle. :)

I looked at the mustang before getting my Z. My only beef with the mustang, which applies to almost all of the sports cars in this price range other than the Z, is the huge range of models. The most common mustangs on the road have v6 engines, single-tip exhaust, etc. When you see another Z on the road, the driver is most likely a car enthusiast. When you see a mustang on the road, the driver is most likely a woman.

But still, on its own, the new GT seems like a great car.

Yeah, I see many more v6 "little dinky" stangs on the road than billy bad-azz GT's.

thats when that 5.0 badge comes in handy

but i agree, when you see a 370, hell a Z car in general more than likely they are an enthusiast. I will miss that...

I think that really depends on where you live. Around here Z's are quite common like the Mustangs are, especially the 350s.

Yeah, but they're all generally enthusiast drivers. You have to be. It's a two-seater with a powerful V6 strapped to it. Not every Mustang driver is an enthusiast. It's an affordable 4-seat coupe that has a performance image. Granted, the new stang's v6 trim pops out 300 hp, but it's still seen more as a sporty coupe than a sports car.

I don't know, I have seen some clueless chicks driving around in 370s. I doubt "Daddy, get me that one!" counts as "enthusiast." :bowrofl:

I have seen, hell I'm related to, a few v6 mustang drivers for that exact reason! "Daddy buy me" :roflpuke2:

Funny story... I was trying to negotiate a deal on a 2004 Audi TT 3.2L for the GF a year or two ago.... at the same time, a Daddy and his 16 year old princess were also fighting for the car. There was no way I could win that battle, and the dealership loved it... :bowrofl:

The princess did your girlfriend a favor! :p
