I wasn't trying to get anyone to agree with anything, but only to get their opinion. There's a big difference between not caring and looking down on a car/person which I do not do based on something as stupid as engine size. You are making assumptions about me and putting words in my mouth at the same time.

Well in that case, my apologies.

Why do I need a faster car? The speed limit's the same for everyone

I like having a V6 that looks better than almost every V8 in my model I see on the streets. (At least in my opinion). I think only close-minded V8 owners are the only ones who look down on V6 owners. I've been told my car was beautiful by a guy driving a 400hp '06 GTO before.

I really don't think too many members here look down on the sixers. Occasional douchebags come and go on this forum just like anywhere. If its a clean car and you love it, that's all that matters. The horsepower junkies (myself included) would never buy a sixer unless an engine swap was in the plans but not hating on anybody. We all have our own idea of what we want out of our stangs.

I agree with the statement that most guys on here dont knock the sixxer. I guess you could say because were an enthusiast crowd. I just hate the d-baags on te streets around me that hardly know the difference between The track pack snd the boss

Hey, when I was in HS my best friend had a 96 V6 5sp Mustang with a suspension and MAC exhaust. It was just as fast as if not faster than my 89 Pontiac Firebird Formula, and it had the TPI 305 not the slower TB equipped 305.
