im with ya on this one buddy, all the time people on this site claim their cobalt is gods gift to earth, hate to break the bubble but its a fwd econobox with some *****..it doesnt have nearly the potental (SP) that a v8 mustang and even a v6 mustang would have...
im talking in terms of 1/4 mile..handeling its a different story

BTW, even my '00 V6 Mustang would probably be capable of 13's if I added gears/t-loc and good tires. As with most cars... it's a matter of knowing what actually works and going with it.

Actually, Mustangs have good handling potential as well... but the broad buyer demographic for the V6's and GT's often mean it makes MONEY sense to stick with a more compliant suspension setup stock.
You beat what was probably a 1994-1998 V6 w/ 150hp and therefore all Mustangs blow? Excellent point
Yep... "Boss 245" on mustangcollective.com

i personally love the new mustangs, and my buddy who has a auto v6 gives me a run for my money and he cant really drive..only problem with the new v6 stangs is that they are the same body as the gt so they weigh alot...

. hell no. BUT the ss/sc is far better equipped for handling purposes than a v6 mustang, that is the truth. You can throw an ss around turns far harder than a 6, but fwd>rwd is false in every way except in a snow/bad weather condition lol.

Yes, the SS/SC is far better than a V6 Mustang STOCK, but he was talking potential... not stock.

i'm not bragging or anything, but i have a stock LS, and i don't know if this guy was really serious or not, but i beat a 96-ish stang. i mean like i said i don't know how hard he was going, but i passed him up pretty easy. and he instigated it, those stop lights are proving ground lol.

Just a ridiculously quick rundown of the three common V6 Mustangs.
