I'm confused.

Why are they saying the GT500 only gets 305 HP and 290 pound feet of torque? Is this accurate?

I made a response under "Abuse - Fraudulent Posting", to point out this error, because I could not find a way to contact the author. (Haha)

If they don't fix it, every Mustang hater in the world who wants to believe the GT500 has 300hp WILL believe it, and I'll never hear the end of it.

Let the haters believe the gt500 makes 300hp. They don't need to know the truth until the start of the race.

Maybe they were looking at the 2011 V-6 numbers. I mean no way is anyone gonna pay 20k more for a car with less power than a regular GT.
