Only thing is I dont see it as a track car....

==How 'bout it guys? Do we give him a hand?==

How about a finger?

==Why dont we meet on the track with your v6 stang!!==

Don't start that game, there's ALWAYS someone around that's faster than you. I've got a totally bone stock 4 banger in the garage that would send you packing to your mamma, you'd be crying on her breast about the mean people out there in the world. Let me know if you want to have a go. I'm sure you're thinking I'm full of it. I'll just answer that with one word in a foreign language, HAYABUSA

Me and my buddy have a TT 382 trans am that runs 8's on slicks, and i know there are people out there that can beat it. Im sure i could beat 95% of the vehicles on the road, but i know for a fact that others can win.

I lost to a 62 nova (supercharged 614cid engine), which was my humbler (is that a word?)

==How do u figure a Shelby will have better resale in 5 yrs?==

Are you serious? OK, well I'll assume you're not, because if you are it speaks volumes about your lack of knowledge of the auto industry as it currently stands.

Later guys, I'm going to look for a thread where we can discuss Shelbys

He was hit by a guy that fell asleep at the wheel coming out of the BART station (im from SF). Nice insurance check.

Car was stock until at 2400 miles we got rear ended by an expedition (broke my back) and thats when we put the SLP 382 stroker motor in it and the TT. Cost of car and mods was around 72k (a whole lot yes i know, but it was fun)

It was only street legal because my buddy jason worked at the smog station at our local gas station.

Gawd, you really are clueless. Do you not know what a Hayabusa is? And here I thought your "dumb" routine was an act. Do a Google search, read and learn.

Ok, might as well add my .02 here.

GTO = nice car for the money but it does nothing for me in the "looks" dept. I was at a car show earlier today and some guy was leaving in a black looking "grand prix" car. Not until i noticed the badging did i realize it was a GTO. Now, i'm thinking of, perhaps getting the woman one and when i don't want to take out my Shelby in foul weather, i'll just take the GTO. Both cars are fast enough for me but when caught in the GTO, i can always fall back to: "No no, this isn't mine, it's the old lady's grocery getter".

Good luck with your GTO but one thing that i've been wondering. How many guys look over at you thinking there must be a chick driving it?

Not too many Chicks drive a 400hp car.

AND where do u figure it looks girly?

Seriously.

Yes I agree it has a simple desgin, but def. not girly.

I think of a girly car as a Solstice, VW Jetta, 6 cylinder Stang, But definetly not my Black GTO with red interior and 400 hp. I mean you can hear this car coming a block down the road.

Def. not a chick car. Guess you have never driven one.

Also 05's look a lot better than 04's

I can tell you 2 that would kick the Shelby's **** on the track.
-2006 Dodge Charger SRT 8 (425hp N/A)
-2005 Pontiac GTO (400hp N/A)

Slap a S/C on both of those and they are WELL over 500hp.

(Note: You get the money for the S/C from the 10-15K you saved over buying the Shelby)

BTW, If they were to make a Judge (which they prob. won't) it would be cappable of blowing the Shelby out of the water N/A!!!

Oops, didn't mean to hit a nerve but the car looks like a chicks car to me. Thats why i didn't notice the car at the show being a GTO at 1st. I looked at who was driving (thought it would be some blonde chick driving her grand prix).....turned out to be a dude driving solo (not even a female passenger :scratch: ) Then i looked at the badging and said to myself: "Ahhhhhh, i see now, that explains everything".

But in all honesty, the car looks like a chicks car with a nice engine in it.

....and No, i've never driven one let alone sit in one before....just not my style but whatever floats your boat dude.

How can it be true when neither the Charger SRT8 nor the GTO have been tested against the GT500? It's nothing but magazine racing on your part.

I have a question for you: why are you still here? Whenever I buy a new car, I go find an online forum of other owners to discuss my new car. I don't hang around another forum just to argue about why I think my car is better. Nothing personal against you, I'm just curious as to your reasons for staying here.
