R1 vs Porsche

[John]

That is not a muscle car though in fact all consideration no mustang is a muscle car. They are sports cars. Muscle cars are more about power and torque and Sports cars are handeling and speed.

Handle, american?

Does that work, ahh I love being a clarkson in training that guy is a toss.

Personally the current mustang looks like a piece of shit.

Your pic is of the concept not the production version.

It's too tall, too bulky, too PC...... if you see one in real life you may not be too impressed.

Was one out at the auto show at mystery creek a few weeks back. Have to say it looked closer to the concept pic than those pics there mate. The red one did look funny though. Black one was mint as.

. shady behaviour, but not out of the question for a man so uncertain about his sexuality that he says 'i won't ride the bike because I'm a heterosexual'!!

A scared heterosexual. But what is beyond doubt is the fact that he is straight, no gay guy would dress so badly.

Ok then, what about this one?

Feast your eyes on this. Screw that Mustang



Check out the rust paint job, beautiful

Has an estimate hp rating of 60, top speed of 140kph, and plenty of leg room!

The plastic bag sticking out of the right rear passenger door to stop it from leaking and smelling like cat piss

And the vandilised left headlight

The Ferrari's in the gargre

Well, my mistake, but it's got killer looks, none the less. There was something on the Star Times about it vs. a Monaro (sp?). Also on the opposite page was an R1 vs CBR1000RR, with nice matching wheelies

Yeah, the 'stang pipped the Monaro - not by a whole lot but enough.
Saw one in Ch-ch (new 'stang that is) and it looked o.k. by me, you can only expect so much in this p.c. world.

P.S. Ever driven a car hard with traction control? About as much use as chocolate kettle most of the time imho.

Bring back the old Detroit steel I say!!!

They are OK..... but no comparison to how good the concepts look or the original mustangs......

Alucard the black mustang was the higher spec version called the GT that runs a 4.6L SOHC 24V V8 as opposed to a 4.0L SOHC 12V V6 in the base model

As for hot looking stangs there's the GTR

And the recently released GT500 Cobra

You're not talking about one of your company cars are you? I had a rental that bore a similarity to one of your rep cars, and the best thing about the traction control was the off button. Well, for the trip from the motel to Greymouth KFC anyway... rest of the time was with my parents and daughter so it was pretty redundant.
