Its always to each their own to me. It would be a really boring world if everyone had the same taste. I think it was a good review. What I really want to comment on is what I think is a raspy sounding exhaust. I was watching the Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift the other night and wondered how they made those four and six cylinders sound so sweet.

The car is cool. May be overpriced for what it is, but it is still a cool car. Many people buy V6's for various reasons. A Turbo'ed V6 can give plenty of stock V8 owners trouble. Same as a modded 5.0 can give GT500 plenty of problems. When you mod it comes down to more than juts the size of the engine.

This is the 2010-2014 Mustang section. Sometimes people with older Mustang GT's will bash the newer Mustangs because of the way they look and the higher horsepower the GT and V-6 now have. I also think a few of the older GT's have had their panties smacked by the 11+ V-6 Just saying........

It's the "I'll never give this forum one more $" that I don't understand, what do you mean by that?

Are you saying people should only be allowed to post in a section if they own the car that section is about? That seems a little extreme.

No. Not at all. The guy with the 07 vert does a lot of V-6 bashing.

The $ is the money i pay to be a site supporter. I won't pay anymore.....

I like it. Sounds crappy, but that can be fixed with an aftermarket exhaust.

Wouldn't that be cylinder bullying?

Ok. That was legitimately funny. Well played sir.

(And for the record, I like our V6 brethren... I used to be one. Made me the Mustang Fan I am today.)

actually no.. Do your homework and see that the v6's lack the torque it takes to out run a 4.6 3 v. Mine runs 13.5's. A full 1/2 second quicker then stock 3.7's
heres a vid on these cars racing.. Take in consideration that mine has a little work to it too. V6 does a nice job that's for sure..

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, but someone has to point out, in that vid, there is a woman driving the v6....
