No, not exaggeration, the current gt500 weighs 3950lbs or something in stock form. Yikes. 500hp though.

So much for the GT hanging with an M3, not even close, according to SCCA, the new GT cant even hang with a 90s (or even 80s) M3. Tongue

Apples to Kumquats.

I'd take the 400hp V8 for a street car any day.


The original thread title was saying that the GT could hang with an M3 at the track specifically. My point resides on that discussion. If we are talking about a street car more fun, theres SOO many variables that you are comparing apples to oranges.

+1. As much as I love AutoX, it is a sandbox where kids with slow (but light) cars like to play and delude themselves that they own quick cars. A parking lot is about the only place in the world where a Miata on R-Comps can be faster than a Corvette.

Just saying, not hating....

thousands less, but infinitely shittier to drive.

i guess you can't put a price on taste.

i keeps it real. mustangs have never been drivers. if you disagree, you need to get your head checked. if i'm spending that kind of coin to go fast, you can guarantee i'm not going to waste it on either of those cars... at which point, why do we even care which goes faster around a track?

FTFY. Some guys just want to dump the clutch, catch 2nd and tear ass sideways to a much better soundtrack and with 60's feel. Dare I say that, for the money, this car will appeal to a lot more people than a M3 ever could.

Sooo I was a "driver" when I was 16 and thought I was cool dicking around on the street? :wink:

Dare I say, if your a driver you can tell the difference between what "drives amazing in your hands" and what is simply not. Thats why miatas are so loved, yeah their pretty fast around an autocorss course and do pretty well, but its mainly that it just "feels excellent, so smooth, so tossable". Same goes for 911s, m3s, etc.

just out of curiosity have you driven a '10+ S197 chassis mustang? or a new M3 for that matter.

Fox, SN95, i can agree. *yogi bera voice* the new ones are not the old ones.

Re: 2011 Mustang GT can hang with........an M3? - Evan - 08-13-2010

what is it with the inferiority complex to M3s?

id kinda get it, in a car magazine wanker kind of way, if they were both competitors in the same market segment. but they arent. not even close.

if you want to say, hey, the new mustang is an asskicking car, thats cool, we all love cars and some more than others.
But when you say "HOLY CRAP the new mustang PWNS the M3!!!!111LULz!!!1" you sound like a top shelf auto forum asswanker (which is much worse than a car magazine wanker FYI)

What is it with the superiority complex to anything not Bavarian built?

I agree, why compare yourself to the car your customers probably aren't even considering. I highly doubt that a Mustang buyer is considering an M3, I'd guess 90% of buyers of this car will only care about 2 things is it faster than a SS Camaro, or is it faster than the SRT8 Challenger. I could careless that this thing is faster than a kraut car, what I wanna know is the good old answer to the ford vs chevy vs dodge debate.

Have they announced the price point, last I read it was between a GT and a 500, that's what a 30k-40k price window over the GT?

Don't get me wrong the boss is pretty bad ass, biggest complaint is the roof matching the stripes, black aint bad but the white stripes/roof, omg its fugly.
