It's funny how we get set in our ways. I was talking to a trackhead down here who is setting up a v6 stang to race...he's put down some preliminary times that are ridiculous. He came from a 350, and said he picked up like 4-5 seconds....he preferred the v6 to the 5.0 because of the balance...Seems to be working for him

Yep. I try my best to be as open-minded as possible so I never get stuck in a fanboy rut like most people...

What's funny is, at least in my experience, the 370 gets way more respect on the Mustang forums than the Mustangs do here.

That's because Mustangs are the devil. You see, the 370Z, if you'll permit me to ramble here, is what God would drive, especially if he intended to have sex wth a successful and hot woman. Whereas the Mustang is what the Devil would drive around to kick kittens and look for anonymous gay sex in an alleyway.

That's not just slander, it's a solid fact. I got it from Ford's webste. It's just in really, really fine print.

On the good mustang forums, yes.

On others...they bitch about losing to the m3 in comparos, and there's a thread full of people that claim they'd never drive a "ricer" m3

Yeah, AFM.

TMS is the best IMO. Though sometimes I have to search AFM to find some info that I can't find on TMS.

this is true, i guess mainly because the mustang is now in the handeling arena where the Z was ALWAYS beating it, and straight line accel was pretty much a drivers race until the coyote motor came...theres allot less fan boying going on when you dont have to defend a vehicle
