With about 1500 miles. I am averaging 19.2 mpg. (combined) Whoever "assured" you that you would be dissapointed with a GT has never had one.
It also looks like a souped up roller skate, no thanks, looks ain't everything, but it helps, :smoke:

I stand by my original statement. Those cars put down more than 310hp to the wheels.

You Cobra was rated at 305hp at the Crank?


You must have met a dog or someone who couldn't drive.

The Chevy's 5.7-liter OHV V8 makes 310 hp at 5,200 rpm and a brutish 340 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm.
With our timing equipment at the ready, we found that the Z28 accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds and passes the quarter-mile in 13.8 seconds at 105.4 mph.

Wow, Ford must have paid some serious cash to advertise in that Magazine.

Im sorry and LS1 Z28 running a 13.8?:eyebulge:

Who was driving that thing... my grandma?

Plenty of Mags out there posted sub 13.3 times for those. If you want to magazine race, I have an issue of GM High Tech Performance and they put a set of slicks on a boe stock 98 and ran a 12.9. 00-02 have more power. So figure a 12.7

Under $30K and only cost $400 for the slicks and Bam... first car under $30K to run 12s... adjusted for inflation.

There is just no way that an 05 Mustang GT is faster than a LS1. :handball:

A 310 HP Z pulling 12's stock? doubt it.
