the previous generation GT's are overrated IMO. Granted good bang for the buck, but catch one of them at 65 when they need to bog 3rd, and we're in powerband and it's all ------- over. And the older bodystyle with the 4.6 is a ------- joke. Nice kill. And in car view would be better though

well when you drive a mid 11 second Honda as a DD like drunkinmaster, a 12 second Cobra WOULD seem slow :S

my specs: 2.3 bored 2.4L b230ft (in volvo 944T '92), planned engine head, block, stock internals, stock injectors, full straight down pipe, and straight pipe (no cat) 3" A to Z, MBC set to 18 psi, but i can go up to 22psi, and running a Garrett T5 on bearings.

Is that the volvo in the 11's? yeah, that should smoke a stock mustang... I'd hope.

cobras are ------ beastly, but cost per hp a LS1 is better. 5.7>4.6

Only loss i had was to a cobra, no other car has beaten me. I even beat a ~600hp srt8 cherokee from a roll.
