Which Mustang Is King Of Performancei got into a fairly long winded debate with a friend over the cars and it spaned from the fox body stangs to the terminators and ended up with the Cobra R (he kept sayin the GT500 was better then the others). so now i want to see what other people think that the copy cat car is really the best of the best

If your not including the price of performance here my vote goes the the gt500. Mod for mod, there is no other mustang that outperforms it.

the cobra R runs high 12s at the track, so that means the GT500 is only good for the straights in my book and that just done cut it

Uhm the GT500 pulls .9 G's on the skidpad. That's a pretty nice number for a 4000 lb. beast.

I may be a little bias but the best all around car would be the terminator. Easy to mod like the gt500. Lighter than the GT500. Has the best drag coefficient compared to other mustangs especially with the ground effects. The Cobra R follows close behind but looses due to its rareness.

In my opinion the only thing the "R" can REALLY do better than the Shelby is handle. The "R" is a corner carving beast. While the GT500 isnt as quick on its feet. it would not take alot of cash to get the handeling up there. I seen a thing on the Speed channel similar to this not too long ago. They where comparing a Stage 3 Roush to a '07 GT500. They tested them head to head and the Roush was a full 3 secs faster than the shelby on the road course but the sheby blew the roush off the drag strip.
Just my .02 cents worth! |

Meanwhile, to make the Cobra R take out the shelby in the straights, all you need is a little boost. If we're talking drag racing, you could either hit it with a 150 shot of NOS, or if you don't feel like cheater-juice, you could just get some boost going. Or you could just get a notch-back Fox-body, drop in a terminator and full race suspension, and beat 'em both at both of their games
