Do V8 owners look down on V6 mustangs?

3.8s are very good motors and with the right mods can make very good power. I could build a 3.8l that would outrun a GT for a good amount of money less. Plus insurance, blah blah blah.
Look around on some of the V6 forums out there and you'll see numerous 350+ rwhp sixers out there.

Except for those 9 sec mustangs SSM builds hmmmmm...

Within the next few years, I fully plan to build a high horsepower sixxer, for no other reason then I want to. I'm sure that's what goes through most peoples mind that mods them, not just to beat a GT

I could look down on you because you don't want to go all out on your car, but in end, who gives a ****.

Regardless, does it really matter? Is it going to affect your life? Do V6 Mustangs really bother you that much?

No and no, and when did I say v6 mustangs bother me? All I have done was ask people's opinion on general things. I have a feeling you either assumed I had a issue with them. Infact I used to own one before and it was a great car.
