I messed with the wrong car...and it killed my 5.0

Defeat was inevitable lol...I still couldn't resist messing with it. We caught a red light side by side in front at the next light. The old lady driving it had a car length on my 5.0 by the time I got out of 2nd gear. Did not expect to see a 65ish y/o lady in there to say the least!

I like that for 1 more reason. Sure it's a nice car & stuff! More proud of the 'granny' & her driving skills! I would love to have a grandmother like that!!

Them GT's are incredible cars. Sucks though Ford only made them for a few yrs.

Thank the dealers for that. At it's MSRP it was a great car but many dealers were adding $100k adms and killing the demand for them. It was always suppose to be a limited run but there would have been more made if dealers didn't get greedy.

That's pretty high up on the list of cars I'd race just to have the honor of losing to. M5 would also be on that list. So would a ZR-1.
