I bought my Mustang because I can run 9's at the price it would take a honda to run 11's. Some day you might understand that going fast as possible for as cheap as possible is more fun than building a money pit just to play the underdog game.

It DOES take more work and dedication to make a civic run a 13 vs. making a mustang run a 13. I'll draw a chart if that's hard to understand.

The inital prices of the cars are the same.
Yeah of course a Civic with the stock 1.5l is going to be cheaper than a Mustang GT but once you swap a B-series in it the prices are the same. Lets compare apples to apples since your not going fast in a Honda without a B-series and Civic SI's are worthless so we get: A 96' Mustang GT: http://www.kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/kw.kc.u...p;cpe&11;FO;D4
Excellent $4,440
(Selected)
Good $3,990
Fair $3,450
vs a 96' Acura Integra GSR: http://www.kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/kw.kc.u...p;cpe&11;AC;AH
Excellent $4,830
(Selected)
Good $4,370
Fair $3,800
The Mustang is actually cheaper than the Honda, consider yourself owned like always

2) I have had at one time enough parts to field four LS swaps, all stuff given to me for free. LS will handle 300 whp no problemo, more with some cooling mojo.

1. Stealthmode NEEDS a B-series to go fast, just trying to explain things on his level.
2. Refer to Steve's old D-series setup, it won't in his hands
3. The whistles go woo

Re: v8 douchebags
haha, so in order to have a B series you have to have the whole GSR, right? You're right though, mustangs don't hold any value. 
"I could run 9's, but I don't want a money pit, so I won't, but I could if I wanted, but I don't want a money pit, so I'm just going to drive this unvalueable gas guzzler to impress the college girls that ride the bus. Oh, and I could run 9's, if I wanted, but I don't want to. I just want to go as fast as possible for as cheap as possible, but that would be a money pit, so I'm not gonna do it."

my stang gets better mileage than a lot of turbo hondas and is probably almost 2 seconds faster than said car
