Yeah the s197's do handle A LOT better. They even improved the turning radius by 6' over the new edge.

Yeah you can get fogs as a factory option on the 6...but they are standard on the GT. Also the fogs on the 6 are smaller than the fogs on a GT.

i know i kinda like that look better though looks more like a late 60's model than the gt's
i think 67 to be exact

MWWarlord · March 19th, 2008, 12:57 AM

yeah the pony package does look good.

mustangs arent ment to handle well. they're meant for drag.
but if u wanna soup'd up one that can handle fun mountain roads, the 6ers have better weight distribution which equates to better cornering & less nose dip

also.. if they were meant for drag they would of came with big gears, shorter shifters [the manuals ALL came like freakin truck trannys], better clutches [again it's like a truck] and DEFINATELY a lower stance.. not a 4x4 look

i must have a cold or something

pilot37 · March 19th, 2008, 01:34 PM

umm....mustangs arent sports cars. & that vid & that pic are of mustangs that have been modded...soooo basically u just proved my point

thx
any car can handle well if u put money into it

ask anyone that knows a lot about Cars--not just mustangs
& that 4x4 stance is def. a lot bigger factor in handling corners than on dragstrips

& as far as not being meant for drag keep in mind that the stang is an economy car, only costs a lil more than 30k for totL (excluding svt obviously)

crashnebula · March 19th, 2008, 01:36 PM

the reason i got a 6 over a v8 was the wow factor, and cause every other mustang owner (around me) all drive 8s.....when get mine to smoke them then we will see whos the biotch....MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

i will eventully spank em all...

tsp_2177 · March 19th, 2008, 01:37 PM

the only stang thats meant for anything without modding is the 03-04 cobra
everything else is just good looks and a little sportyness without mods
plus you have to mod it to be able to be competitive drag racing so how does modding it to be a race car provr your point?
and verts are the worst of all

Your not proving anything?? They aren't that great on the drag strip.. so wtf dude.

Your a genius "they aren't meant for handling BUT you can modify them to take turns good"
and.. "they are meant for drag.. [yet they get washed out by alot of cars ALOT stock for stock].. BUT you can modify them to make them VERY competitive in drag racing"

So, you have proven my point.. it's meant to drive.. you drive it [or mod it] how you want it.

Am I the only one who can read? It's like they only see half of what I type.

ALSO!.. stock my car took turns a WHOLE lot better than it was fast lol.. so IDK wtf your on dude.

i agree that this pic is badass!
and trent i think me and you are seeing kinda the same thing

Trent-04v6 · March 19th, 2008, 04:29 PM

Yeah, I think most people pick up a mustang because it's a cheap/cool car.

Was it meant for drag racing? No.
Was it meant for high speed turns? No.
Does it have the potiential to do both? Yes.
Ford MEANT for it to be a easy on the eyes car for all ages of males and females.

moond0ggie · March 19th, 2008, 04:50 PM

and I believe it to be very reliable,
mine has 157k & has never broke down.
It has been maintained properly
