Top Gear is my absolute favorite show, but sometimes they need to cut the British bullshit!

uhhh this is news? fuck a gt500

Fun to watch that. Makes me not want one though. The Brits hate Ford, no way around that. That old Mustang that guy owns is from a "different Ford"... a totally different era. I test drove a California Edition and it felt "big" and sluggish in turns. To me, it had awesome power from a stop light. I didnt know it had such neanderthal suspension. Maybe that explains the "boaty" feel I remember. Im sure Ford has some kind of Racing upgrade for the suspension. If they do, that test was kind of unfair because they should have mentioned it was available.

For 40g or whatever they are, I'd check out other cars. It handled like shit in their tests. One thing that it does have going for it is its look. Its a mean looking car for sure.

um the dyno tells the numbers. put a new gt500 anywhere on a dyno and compare the numbers. gt500 is pretty, but slow

You need another 160rwhp. And thats for a stock gt500.. One with exhaust would pwn you.
