Well maybe.

ouch dude, that's horrible! I foresee some major mods in that beemer's future, now on to the headset, blackberry, annoying penny loafers (or crocs in tom's case), hopefully he'll remember his roots and avoid the I'm better than you because I have "Gurmaaan Engineeeringk"

Believe me, 501 is killer but there are things about it that I won't miss either. Really to do it over again, I'd stop at 400, atleast with the current Mustang chassis. If you haven't driven something regularly with 500 hp, then you probably wouldn't understand.

Well you could have put off the thrashing until Brenspeeds next dyno day in May but I think the treatment would have been the same.

Could be worse...you could have bought a Hyuandai.

It's okay, Tom. On my cougar forum, I had them fooled into thinking I was trading my Cougar (car at the time) in on a Kia Optima for like a month... had a friend go to a Kia dealer and snap some pix of 'my' new Kia and everything.

Then I posted pix of 'my' new Kia after I bought it... and it turned out to not be a Kia.

It was a fun prank.

I would not be surprised if he believed this...
but... that still would be on the less-radical end of things he believes
