FLY RIGHT BY!!! Done and DONE!

Hence the reason why most domestic or muscle car guys hate import guys.

I don't pull up and entice them. And I don't do it all the time. Most of the time, its more entertainment sitting back watching them look like an ass.

That orange Boss above....sex.

After driving a family friend's new Boss 302, that is the only Mustang I would own...if I could only afford one

(And I don't consider the V6 Mustang a real Mustang)

So much wrong here. The MT82 tranny is actually quite good. Some guys are running 10's on that tranny. The clutch is another story.

The SRA is what it is. Ford has done a great job at perfecting that axle and remember most guys drag race mustangs. IRA and drag racing = kaboom.

BTW, you can get a base model GT for around 28-30 and had double the HP and more options than a FRS.

His father-in-law has an amazing collection of older Mustangs. From Boss 302's, to 429's to Mach 1's. Here's a few pics I linked from his FB page

@OP, This isn't a problem with Mustangs. I'd argue that it's an intrinsic issue with competitive men-- something the car hobby is distressingly and heavily saturated with.

Nothing like a SUMMAH TOP-DOWN CAH!

Damn and I thought having one Boss was enough ....

Please keep in mind, there's more to life than 0 to 60. But if it makes you happy to race a car that is completely out of your class, feel free to stomp away. I enjoy the sound of a good exhaust note.

Wanna hit some twistes? You pick which car I bring.

I've had a few cars try to run me but not a Mustang yet.

i like to drive fast but not to race. i just like going faster than traffic so that i have room to drive. for some reason i really hate driving behind people.
so when im going i push my car early to get ahead of traffic and tons of people see that as a challenge. then i see from my rear view some ass hat speeding up behind me and passing me in another lane, sometimes even cutting me off. i hate being cut off. irritates the hell out of me.
why cant people just let me be
usually a bunch of ricers honestly. american muscle dont really bother me.

Why are we judging all of these other cars and their owner based on a 5 sec interaction? I think that it is hilarious to do so because you never truly know who is in the other car... I will have a completely bone stock BRZ Limited in a few months for use as my DD and my 2013 Nissan GT-R will become a true weekend warrior... So people can hate away on the streets when I am in either car. I love each car for their strengths and weaknesses... The funny part is that these two cars could not be more of polar opposites... I do not feel as though I fit into any sort of mold as a result of owning a car...

The GT-R:
- Boasts planet stopping and rotating grip.
- 550HP and 480TQ
- 0-60 2.8 Sec
- 1/4 Mile 10.7-11.1 @125+ mph
- Weighs 3800lbs

The BRZ:
- boasts its legendary ability to evade grip (drifting) with ease.
- 200HP and 150TQ
- 0-60 6.4 Sec
- 1/4 Mile in 14.9 @ 95.5
- Weighs 2700lbs

People who have muscle cars think they're allllll that though just cause they can take off instantly . But once we start driving ... That's when they lose !

I had them try to race me in my truck all the time... but no one has really tried my FRS... normally they are too busy looking at it cause they have never seen one.
