I can give him an equal amount of timeslips of slow ass 302's with alot of work done.

Looks are youre own opinion.

The fox jock's sound like paid advertisements! Jesus fucking christ, I have owned three mustangs and an f-body and a few other useless cars.

And I can tell you by far, the fox is not the nicer car.


@Warhorse, who gives a shit about timeslips? The F-Body is better, PLAIN & SIMPLE. Theres nothing too it, really there isn't. I don't care how you "gimped" a mustang. Good job! It's still not as nice.

no it's is not! in you opinion it is better. they fact the they didn't sell a 03 goes a long way to show they weren't better. [patriot] time slips go a long ways in show that your opinions are false. [Big Grin]
Isnt it funny now that the camaro is back and is owning the mustang in sales?

Also there wasnt an 00 or 02 cobra. They must suck

Ok... As much as I have been praising the 4th gen F-Body in this thread, I will NEVER agree with you about the new Camaro. Those cars are so FUGLY, heavy as shit, & NEVER impressive, especially in stock trim. If you wanna buy a bulky GM with power, why not buy a CTS-V instead? My 4 door Cadi is lighter than a 5th gen Camaro BTW

How about a properly built stock camaro? The same thing applies because it has more power simple.

i don't need to prove anything i already have prove that a stock heads, cam, intake, tb, already went 11.80. glad he is fully built with his change in shocks and what not. go read a rule book on what he can change out. he runs stock elim. again your lack of knowledge is showing.
Im going to need to see a video of this 11.80 pass.

Because guess what? my fbody went 10.3 with a lid and exhaust at 129!

Robb, they are not lying about the 11.80, this is true. The car has SUBSTANTIAL weight reduction, good suspension, full exhaust, & I'm pretty sure a VERY healthy cam with stock lift. If I'm not mistaken, there are other Mustangs in that same class that are even faster, but not local.
So its not so stock then?

omg stop it. you are just trolling now. so it's ok for your ls1 to have "bolt on's" tune, lids and what not and still claim stock. but he can't change his shocks? read the rules books you might learn something.
all that matters is this 11.80 stock h/c/i, tb. must be fully built.

oh and my ac worked and my hood didnt fly up.

and i also had a cup holder

congratulations, my brother in laws `02 z28 has 62k miles on it, and it's killed the drivers regulator twice, the passengers once, the controls for the windows on the drivers side keep breaking out of the door, the cd changer died at 40k miles, the t-tops leak every other time he takes them off, the flexplate has broken once, the starter case cracked once, and the rear end had to be replaced because the diff munched itself while going down the highway...

Every brand has its lemons. Look at those 2011 gts blowing transmissions and blowing 8 CYL with barely any miles on them.

So... we went from comparing showroom stock to showroom stock, and now we're talking about what would qualify for stock eliminator class? It has weight reduction, suspension, tires, etc etc... oh but it's "stock" because that's what the rule book says?

Doesn't change the fact the 4th gen F-body has a better motor, better chassis, better suspension design, and better transmission than a Foxbody.

Motor to Motor: when do you seen stock unopened longblock smogable 302's with cam only pumping out 400rwhp on pump gas?

Chassis to Chassis: Do F-bodies need full length subframe connectors? Do they rip their own torque boxes?

Suspension: How many cars of ANY MAKE and MODEL do you see CONVERTING to the inverted Macpherson front strut, or 4-link rear end design found in a Fox? How many Mustangs do you see converting to panhard rod/torque arm and Short/Long Arm front?

Transmission: How often do Viper and Vette and Cobra R owners ditch that weak T-56 and put in a manly T-45?

The F-body isn't perfect. It's pig heavy, most of the car besides the drivetrain is put together like crap. The dinky 10-bolt rearend is weak. and it's got love-it or hate-it looks... and in the end I wouldn't own one. I can however acknowledge it's strengths.

I swear some fox mustang owners are so full of themselves, if their fox body had a dildo attached to the front of the car, they would probably sit on it and be their own hood ornament.

I work for a ford dealership(truckshop) and I've replaced 4 engines in the last 6 months with less then 15k miles on them 2 6.8s and 2 5.4s. 2 of these engines had less than 5k not even the 1st oil change. 1 of my coworkers has done a bunch of them too. All I'm saying here is shit happens lol... A friend of mine went through a bunch of shit in his old 06 gto and got it lemoned...
