05's v6 <thumbs down>

[My Cobra]

Well i officaly have to say that every v6 05 stang i have seen has tried to race me. Was wondering if this has happend with everybody else. Pisses me off when i see one at a light and give them the thumbs up and they rev there engine and want to race. I guess the new body style makes them think they are better than any 04 or older mustang? I like the new stangs but the attitude is pretty crappy

new v6 has like 230-250hp so they think they can beat a gt, in there dreams!, newer stangs are heavier and slower! well the v6s are anyways

All the news ones are slow no new gt or the v6 can beat aby of us. Thier so much heavier and bigger also. Porbly the new owners can drive them!

Actually the 0 to 60 times of the new GT are in the 5.3 second range. That's faster than any '99 ~ '04 GT (stock).

They're only about 100 lbs heavier if I remember correctly, but their powerband is more ample, and peak HP is 45 more.

The V6 is a different story altogether. They're probably just messing around, doesn't mean they think they'll beat you, they just wanna play.

I'm sure there's a few of them that may think different, though.

Variable valve timing in the Gt means fatter torque curve which translates directly to quicker acceleration.

It's a stout car off the showroom floor. The more I see of them around town, the more I like their new look.

5.0 owners may recognize that the new V6 is only 5hp shy of the old pushrod rating, only the 5.0 had a lot more torque, which is what really counts.

Good points. I guess i just get pissed when a 05 rolls up next to me thinkin he is hot shit. I do not roll up on a 04 cobra reving my shit. I think peopel should kinda have a feel for what there car can and can not take and stick to it.

I still like the looks of them though...but there is only V6's rolling around here
