Driveway brake stands are pretty trailer park. Sounds about right for a Mustang :stirthepot:

The buster brought ME back!

Who said brake stand? I was going to head on over to Berto's place for some Z-Bro Lovin'

Sounds very San Fran to me... :superghey:

It's not the car for me, but I can't deny that a 650hp *stock* mustang is just flat out awesome.

I hope demand for this gets ford thinking about a GT40 successor!

Definitely would be nice for Ford to do a halo car again....

** Birdman ** I almost had you Steve
** Steve ** You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your driveway... cheapin' out in building a drive long 'nough for my 2013 GT500 with 650HP to stop shy a few inches of your TV in your living room, rather than me making your living room look a scene for COD MW3 with fake hardwood floor. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't damage your furnace! then your punk aZZ would have been cold all winter long. You almost had me?
** Red_Zed ** You Tell him Steve. Get out of here punkie with ugly christmas sweaters.
** Masa ** Cracking up
** Steve ** Now, me and Kirk got to rebuild your short driveway and 3/4 of your house... and replace the 1940s TV your dog peed on when he saw the amount of displacement caused by my 2013 600lb-ft Ford GT500.
** Steve ** Ask any off-road racer like B1ades. Any real smooth racer rocking Al Capone and Kangol hats like Shado. It don't matter if my 2013 650HP, 600lb-feet took an mile or 10 extra over the GTR to brake, braking is braking, no matter the consequences.

I like it just about as much. I'd probably have to see them next to each other to notice the difference.

Notsud 13 11-18-2011 12:26 PM

Well he wouldn't bring it into MD unless it was on a direct path to GB on a Saturday night, so no luck there. :icon17:

M3's don't handle that well. I heard of one in Canada that crashed into a wall recently.

I only make that joke because Seabreeze and company made it out ok. :D

370Zsteve 11-18-2011 12:46 PM

Oil hit $100/bbl today. Be careful what you wish for. T. Boone Pickens said we could see $5.00 gasoline very soon. :ugh2:

I've never driven the Boss but I did really enjoy the M3's handling. Good car. Just wasn't a stand-out-enough car for me to buy again

O man, that was a long time ago. A truck pushed me into a wall coming back from the Ottawa area. Totally killed it

OMG dude, d*mn, glad you were ok, I must say I would expect that from the drivers in Montreal not Ottawa where most drivers are for the most part better. That sucks!!! I dodged a passing truck who almost took out another car in the process, a lady in a mercedes trying to cut across 4 lanes, an acura trying to cut off traffic, all of this in Montreal.

Sibze 11-18-2011 01:55 PM

Ta it really sucked, he pushed us right into the wall so both sides of the car was just gone

KingZee 11-24-2011 01:46 PM

Dude that thing is scary. Going to the LA show tomorrow, can't wait :excited:

Econ 11-25-2011 08:06 AM

2013 5.0 of some sort is on my shopping list.


.....going to wait for the nice weather....and my bonus =/

bigsix 11-25-2011 08:18 AM

New Mustangs are becoming pretty desirable. (Example: Boss 302)

Hah I can't deal with not having a fun car to drive. Although I deff think the Z looks better, I cant get another one, seems like a waste.

Figured the Next best thing might be the '13 5.0. Hopefully it handles mods as well as i hear. Dont think the boss 302 is worth the exta doe for only 24 more hp. Would rather save the 10-15k for some NA mods.
