Except you just did. . . LMAO.

 

Thats a smart idea "newbie"

I know how to drive!

I have purchased 9 NEW stangs since 2000 and im only 29 YO----

I HAD EM ALL, AND KNOW HOW TO DRIVE EM ALL!

 

I'm all jelous yo

 

Had to chime in----coudnt resist could ya Boom?


No way im gonna let a newbie that just registered talk to me like that-----

Hes probably a 17yo numbnut whose ********* havent descended yet-----LOL

 

So is it that 12 sec factory cars are slow or you just don't feel it on the butt dyno?

 

I think the traction control on the Mustangs 'over react'. My V-6 seems to accelerate better with it off, even when the tires aren't sounding off.

 

Um, actually, the 2010 GT interior is the same as the 2011. So the 2010 would be comparable to Audi or BMW also. Just sayin'.

 

Same layout, but they made some minor changes in the fit and feel. Less hard plastic, it does feel nicer inside that a 2010.

 

I think all the 412hp hype have uped peoples emotions too high.

The car is faster then a lot of the old mustangs but you most likly won't be able to feel it. The butt dyno is not that accurate.

I have experience in the same thing. I owned a 99 GT with off-road x-pipe so the car was quite mean sounding. I test drove a 03 cobra with stock exhaust, to me it felt slower then my GT. I knewI was wrong since the cobra had a good 120hp over my GT, but the preception without the exhaust noise screwed things up. So after the test drive I jumped baack into my gt and floored it. The sound was there but felt like ages for my car to get up to speed compared to the Cobra.

LMFAO!

 

I think this is the reason for it. As i was expecting a lot more also but i think it is the exhaust noise that gives you the feeling you are going much faster. My 08 with the GTA's felt faster but i know its not but i perceived it was because of the louder exhaust from the cabin. This car is just so quiet that im sure with after market catback and a tune that will give it better throttle response will give you that perception again. But again this car is about the total package of refinement. The cheap muscle car tag is gone. For those who just want the grunt and sound keep your 05-09 and just throw a SC on it.

 

i don't think you showed any douchery in your review just because the car didn't feel like you expected it to

folks, 100hp over the 2010 is not going to suck your b@lls into your abdomen, in fact, if you can't drive you may just lose in stoplight warfare to a variety of lesser hp cars

even a gt500 would probably not scare you considering the cars you've driven or anybody that has driven any year stock v8 mustang
it's going to take maybe 600+ rwhp before that happens or maybe a litre-class sportbike


now take a 2011 GT on a winding country road and floor it in 2nd from 25mph and i'm sure it will blur the scenery and make you go "whoa"
the conditions people drive in play a huge role in seat-of-the-pants judgements
the times i've been on the dragstrip actually felt the slowest in the car compared to on the street when keeping it on the floor

 

You should test drive a Z06 my friend----------

 

hmmm....SS is slower yet has *****....interesting

 

All 5 liter engines have low end grunt. Yes, Chevy and Chrysler have a few cars with 6+ liter engines right now, but don't let that fool you. 5 liters is a big engine for a mid-size car.

And if you don't think the new 5.0 is fast and furious, you are spoiled and need to drive a Chrysler LeBaron for awhile.

 

I was satisfied when I test drove the new 5.0 for sure. I knew what my car felt like and I had driven my buddies 500rwhp cobra so I wasn't expecting that sort of power.

 

I think it's a little messed up that these things were never mentioned in the reviews..

 

In truth I felt that the 5.0 did not have a lot of the lower end. But I also felt it was a more controlled takeoff. I also tried it with the TC all the way off, and it was still a very control feel. Now was it slow, heh um...no. But it did not have the whole zmog feel. In defense though I did not test a 3:73 gear car. It was 3:31. Also I drive a S/C 08 so...lol yeah I knew it would feel a bit different :P

The new Mustang is still very well define, and I like the innovations in it. Just be prepared for it.

 

its a 302 that likes to rev high...not a 454 that redlines at 5k RPM and has 400lb ft at 2000 RPM. Ford took the route of the 4v which I LOVE!!! It more of an exotic type engine a la Ferrari etc that comes to life at 4k RPM.
