But I get to ride year round

hehe you need twice the riding time to keep up :chuckle: :chuckle:

I`ll gladly take that new Bugatti Veyron. 1001 horsepower, 0-60 in under 3 seconds, estimated 10.8 @ 140 in the quarter, 253 mph top speed and all for only $1.25 million!

I would like to see how this cobra fares against the Z06-

475 hp @ 6000 rpm

450 ft/lbs @ 3750 rpm

Just another fat pig mustang. At 3600lbs, maybe more its not going to be beating much.

True, but I can`t hook anywhere near like that Cobra. My car is useless for first and second gear and I want another 75 RWHP....why I don`t know! :think:

My Chevelle was the same way. 4.11s and a 4000 stall with street tires..... :hairpull

Ugh! At least your cars have weight transfer on your side. With the tC it isn`t much of an issue, but back when I had the SRT-4, and its somewhat powerful wrong-wheel drive system, first and second and if pushed hard enough the first part of third was nothing but a scarey outburst of tire smoke and wheel hop! This was completely stock too at only 221 to the wheels. Damn FWD.

Didn`t Ford make the Mustang for a couple years with independant rear suspension?

You guys can compare numbers all day long and argue over stats.

I`d gladly take any car that has been mentioned in this thread and have the most fun in my life with it. FWD, RWD, AWD, 1 liter to 7 liters. American to Japanese to European.

Cobra + 35k in mods =

Cobra>Z06

well, in a straight line anyways, i still highly doubt that the thing can turn

Or we can go Ford GT ($100K +) vs. Z06, BTW the Z06 will win.

Or 02 Camaro SS ~ $25K + $15K in mods vs. stock cobra - SS will win

Or, 97 Trans Am (intake & exhaust) vs. 05 Mustang GT (exhaust) - Trans Am won, with 93K miles on the odo.

See GM is always better.

Ditto

While I would love to own any of the cars mentioned in this thread, give me a stock Suzuki Hayabusa and I will embarrass each and every one of them for less than 15 grand. For that matter I could probably go out and buy a used Honda CBR1100XX for 6 grand and do the same thing except maybe that Bugatti that Scott mentioned

:dance
