messin with a mustang gt - United Bimmer Community

On wendsday night, the night me and a friend beat a 1990 corsica (link below) we went to the movies together and we were driving up from her house to the theatre. On the way we see this nice black Mustang GT. I knew that if it was the V6 i could take it and i woulda raced it in a heart beat. Even still we ended up playing "follow the leader". Funny thing was it was a girl driving, so the girl with me thought she totally wouldnt want to race me. After about 6-7 blocks i finally get next to her at a light. And we knew she was gonna race me, i didnt even have to rev my engine to know she was gonna race me. So light turns green, i pin it, and so does the mustang cause you can hear the quick screech of her tires as she takes off. She gets about 2-3 car lenths ahead of me off the line. Then she cuts in front of me and backs off a bit cause i switch lanes and shoot past. It was pretty cool to see how even though she had the V8, i still coulda had a chance cause she didnt get to far ahead of me off the line. But she did have alot more torque so that helped.

Mustang GT's are quick little cars.

And what really sucks is for almost no money they can go from "quick" to "fast". It takes very deep pockets to make a bmw "fast" (in a straight line that is).

The new Mustang GTs are faster than the new Dodge Charger R/T. Anywho. Wow...how'd you find a chick that like racing?

Good story, I liked it.

I wanna drive one of the gt's, they're 6 speed right? i'm just not 18 yet, so only used car dealerships around where I live let me drive cars.

**komodo** · 07-23-2005, 06:59 PM

Not sure about the new ones. I know the older than 2005 are 5 speed.

except they don't have less HP. they have more HP stock than any mustang before it. check the figures first before you post.

numbers from dealership don't always tell you the truth
