+Jackie Chan no way Mr. Chan, that would be Mr. Harris

+Jackie Chan Dutchman Wouter Karssen remains one of my favorite tho.

Oops.. The car I'm referring to was the 2011 Gt track pack. I ran 12.7 in the quarter with a tuned ecu on all season tires. Quite a nice car for 30 grand. The 350z costs about the same new and the ride was so low and harsh it was scarier to drive over bumpy roads than any other car I've been in, I ran 14.2 in the quarter mile with it and I'm sure my Mustang could pass it on outside through a corner even with it's IRS, sickeningly stiff suspension and all.

I agree with you, a lot of people hail the AE86 as one of the best handling cars around and it has a solid rear axle.

I do, 18 minute commute (google says 35 ^.^ ) to work on back roads, in WA

XavierJ61 it's not a good example as this car weight nothing so you can't compare, and I'll even say that it's useless to compare any cars to justify the efficacity of the solid axle as there's too much parameters rigidity of the chassi ,tyre dimension,softness ;set up.... the AE86 would be even more awesome with independant suspension, but the price will be awesome too, it's called compromise ; )

Nah, they're all pretty cool. I dig that supercharger Rousch slapped on there. 14lbs of boost?! "How much horsepower do you need?" "All of it." 🤣

I got a question for you, what is the exhaust set up like? Like does it have the resonator, cats, an x or h pipe on it?

Factory, just with Roush axle-backs.

fordboy85 Oh shit so you can make it even louder?

, Yea from what I've heard an off-road x makes it too loud.

fordboy85 Lol too loud? Really? But Damn youre lucky I wish I had the money to go out and get me a 2014 stage 3. But im too young and dont have a career yet, so im gonna have to wait a few years

My first thoughts too.

It's almost as if he said, "in case someone strips this thing and sells it for parts, I better sign every panel."

Maybe you can get some money knocked off for every one you don't get on the car. That could be a lot of money.

Could probably save about 100 lbs of ink...

I got mine on my Roush tool box in trunk too

I like the interviews, but I imagine seeing him do the same thing off-camera all the time.

Hey come on man!

ZL1 cant compete

No its not?

You want to dig back to the roots and see who's right? Throw a 350z, S2000, MX-5, really any other sports car on a curvy road and then throw a Mustang with them and tell me which handles better. These things were built to be heavy, obnoxiously loud, powerful and fucking fast in a straight line. So it pisses me off when I see people comparing a luxurious sports car to these monsters.

And yes now a days you have the Z/28 and 350R which are more track focused and are meant to handle and drive much better, but note that you lose more power with those.

Not everyone has the time, money, and skill to build a Mustang. It's worth more stock from the factory

karl jacobson yes, and then when you blow your motor from something being done not quite right... ford probably isn't going to honor your warranty when they see a big honkin blower strapped to the block. it is a lot of money though. cool car, but bad performance per dollar.

spookypunky okay, a stock mustang is nice and fast, holds it's value for a decade or so, then the value starts to be balanced by the new changes in the market, demand for that model, trends at the time. Remember the SVO mustang with the four banger turbo? It fell out of favor with the times, dropping the value. Is that car still worth more than the eight cylinder brother? With no improvements, no appeal to today's driver. Is less more?

kingcrimson234 I understand what you mean, some of the things you do to a new car can void the warranty, I am not talking about a new car. Like I said, buy a stock older car cash, and rebuild it. As far as warranties go, the manufacturer has a limited warranty, the shop you decided to go to better back their freck'in work! The size of blower you use, that could be interesting, as you probably know, size does matter. The idea here, is to keep your car up with technologies of today. Instead of the stock car with all original parts, sitting in your garage, afraid to take it over sixty thousand miles, or whatever. Who wants to push an old stock car to it's limits, nobody. Take that car and put today's brakes, and tight tolerance block, built for boost, and overdrive transmission, and a new set of wheels, bam! Fun! In my opinion, that is fun. But, if you like stock statues....go for it! :-)

all sick cars, but we are talking contemporary mustangs

eleanor isn't real, imo best mustang is the 69 boss 429

steven earnshaw Eleanor is real, actually.

so is the batmobile if we're talking about movie cars

steven earnshaw Jeez, does it fucking matter, a Mustang is a Mustang.

website?

+IDoNotApproveOfThat What is that dealership please?

Len Stoler Ford. It's still there.

+IDoNotApproveOfThat I called them. The car is a 2014. The price is $63K. They can't sell it till March because of a recall, and the part is not available till March.

+IDoNotApproveOfThat There was a roush mustang at my local dealer that they claimed was pushing 900hp but they tuned it down to 700hp to sell. Sounds pretty awesome but i dont know if i trust there numbers. Sounded great though.

The guy driving in this video hates on the GT500 Hard, He says the Boss 302 is better than the GT500. This mustang is like the good of the boss 302 with the speed of the gt500 without the other shitty parts of the gt500.

Jyan Lan Oh wait.. Hes talking shit about this mustang to.

Jyan Lan What shitty parts are on the GT500? The engine is still reliable and solid at 800+ rwhp (900+ crank hp), the driveshaft is engineered for WELL in excess of 200 mph, as is the entire front fascia and underbody/rear aero effects and the stock tremec has been in the 8's @ 160mph under a load of a Kenne Bell 3.6L cranking out 1,150rwhp and almost 1,100 rear wheel ft-lbs. If you're going to talk about brakes, shove it. Nobody hits the road courses on stock brake pads & fluid unless they're running factory carbon ceramics. Regular stock brakes are supposed to bite well with little to no heat build up, as in a panic brake situation for safety reasons. Race brake pad compounds aren't expensive, but really only work well once they're hot. When you go to the track, you set your car up. Not to mention that the GT500 has more brake fade than the ZL1 (for example) because the Shelby is so much faster coming into the braking zones, as i've explained to numerous people before.

Who drives 200mph? Lol no one. Most good cars come with BRAKES U DONT HAVE TO UPGRADE >>> LMFAO

That would cost much more than the $68k this car costs... not exactly an "alternative"

Yah bro! Buy a VIPER TA! I mean they only make 30 a year Im sure u will get one!

so spend over a hundred grand to get 1200 hp... better solution thats more cost effective... get a late model c5 vette or 4th gen camaro or Trans am and drop twin turbos on it... it'll be just as fast at a fraction of the cost...

YOU MISSIN THE POINT BRO. ITS ABOUT STYLE WHO CARES ABOUT FUCKING SPEED UNLESS U ARE A U TUBE WARRIOR. ANYONE WHO CAN AFFORD A EXOTIC CAR CAN >IF THEY WANTED TO< AFFORD MORE THAN U COULD TO PUT IN ANYTHING U WANT.

You have a good point there... obviously if money were not an issue then yeah... you could buy a LaFerrari and twin turbo charge it... but the point still remains that for the same money you could put it into a car that cost less and get more for your money... Too it would be a little harder to tune the viper than an ls powered car... heck they probably weigh the same... also viper owners have the unsavory image of being douche bags with small penises... besides there's a certain joy to be had with blowing away some snob in a over priced under powered exotic... For what Ferrari and Lamborghini charge you can make a much better car that would have far more usable power... again a late model ls power car could stomp the hell out of most if not all of the hyper exotic cars... and again they're light, cheap and incredibly easy to tune... and for much less... Hate to say it... but with the exotics you're buying the name and ripped off on the performance front... 600 hp doesn't require 400k... try a couple thousand dollars on top of the 10-15k for an F-body... a 2002 Ws6 can be tuned to in excess of 1000hp... and then there's the plug and play drop-in crate motors from GM... you're choice of Ls2-3-6-7-9-X-Q power plants... that doesn't even factor in all of the after market support... Ford Mustangs are also another good starting platform for raw power... case in point these exotic cars as handsome as they are really a rip off and boast power and handing that can be matched and massively exceeded in most of the performance paradigms that their manufacturers proclaim dominance. Of course I have the mind of a hot rodder and I certainly do not represent the majority...

they had the made problem back in 73.. so they made a PINTO mustang.... this time in 2015.. they pretty much make a Nissan.....

jwdundon They didn't have a weight problem in 1973. There was an oil crisis and people didn't want gas guzzling cars, weight wasn't just the problem/ever was.

When I was a teenager in the late '70's, my first Mustang weighed 3026 lbs on the registration (351C with a 3 on the floor). Later on, my '87 Mustang may have weighed LESS then 3K. My current 2000 Mustang GT reads 3295 lbs on the reg. Now they're 4000 lbs? Where are they putting the weight?

Actually ***** I'm quite away that weight isnt always a limiting factor. Just most of the time. But yes nowadays everything except the brz is too heavy. My genesis I'm selling is 3250, and the 2014 c300 im getting is about 3700 lbs. My dads 2014 cls 550 is 4300lbs. its just crazy

Andrew Fallon Thats why you just save all that money from a new car and build your own car.

Mcbear 291 that’s why you never buy new you can buy this car with no miles for 27 used

Low

Mike Samra All Mustangs save for the GT500 get the Chinese M82.

William Stewart Everyone follow my mustang page @mustangsaddiction

+William Stewart Unless the "Aluminator" engine option is ordered, Roush just installs the blower, and re-tunes the engine.

tazaxx21 Isn't the "Aluminator" option hugely expensive?

+William Stewart True. I think it's quite a bit more. Maybe $6K? However the 5.0 easily handles the extra 150 or so HP on the standard RS3 Roush. The Aluminator will handle way more than that.

Jake Richardson god bless your soul child

ftffighter​ Sure they are in my safe full of gold, I'll give you the combination

William Chemini And no one asked you to respond :)

Aa is for you

I'm pretty sure this idea comes from Top Gear's review of the GT500 some several years ago and this is absolutely not true. The suspensions between the base, GT, Boss, and GT500 are all different. There's a few parts that are shared but not many. The panhard rod is shared. The rear lower control arms in the back are shared between the GT with the Brembo Brake and Track Package ONLY, the Boss, and GT500. The spring rates are all different. The shocks and dampers are all different. The strut mounts are also not shared between the GT500 and all the other models. So yes, there is a difference. Is it enough? No. But it is most certainly "changed."

Well when you give a car an extra 200 bhp (or 150 bhp in certain cases) suspension should be completely revised.

pbfloyd13 What is your idea of a "completely revised suspension" then? Because as he just said....the GT500's shocks/dampers/spring rates are unique to the GT500; not to mention that on said suspension, it went 7:39 around the nordschleife, quicker than many over-priced and hyped-up IRS cars, even quicker than the Ford GT supercar did ten years ago, quicker than the first year or two of C6 Z06's as well.

2013FiveOh should have been more clear in my comments I'm referring to the 2005 gt500 that used a solid rear axle.

pbfloyd13 All GT500's use live axles.

YoBryce Kim Everyone follow my mustang page on instagram @mustangsaddiction

Dude i follow u and ur good af now

Thats a valid argument......

Corey Alfredson what? Audi's are better cars, they turn better they ride better they have more luxury, and they all haul ass hence AUDI Accelerates under Demonic Influence. The $70k 2014 Audi RS5 does 0-60 in 3.9 secs opposed to the Stage 3's 4.0 secs.. the stage 3 has 575HP/570 ft lbs the RS5 has 450/317... think of that, it's quicker with less power and less displacement and no supercharger... 4.2L vs 5.0L blown...

Corey Alfredson like I said you can do so much more with so much less. the Audi will get better mileage, last longer because the engine isn't being stressed by the boost and it still sounds good with that audi v8.. I'm not saying either is better I just think you get a better built car and more car for your money with the Audi, that's my opinion like it or not I have the right to it.

J.A.Ratt85 I agree you can have your opinion, I just think that you should attach reasoning to it, which after I provoked a response you did. You have a 100% valid argument.

Corey Alfredson I think the biggest argument you can throw is that the Audi out performs it stock and the mustang is highly tuned.. now what would the audi be like with a twin turbo kit, exhaust and intake thrown at it? tho I'm honestly not a big fan of turbos, they tend to make every engine sound the same.

you mean the 4.6 DOHC.... I loved the Terminators

DevasionX No, but those sounded great, too.

+odessaboy both can sound good, 4v are more beasty tho.

sparkymike83 the original eleanor was just a normal 73 mustang lol en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_%28automobile%29

Boss 429

They've had some pretty good cars over the last 20 yrs... Syclone, 90-95 Zr1, 4th gen Camaro and Firebird and the C4, C6 and C7 corvette. Their Ls series of small blocks are pretty awesome as well. Tons of modification support and theres alot to be said for keeping the cam in the block... I do agree with you on the 5th gen Camaro. The car is hideous and it has incredibly terrible visibility. Also the interior is ridiculous... I personally do not care for the whole retro thing and to be honest its running a bit long in the tooth...

I love the retro thing, it's just that I think GM completely missed the mark, and made the Camaro look a hell of a lot faster than it actually is. It's like a body builder who's muscles are huge, but he can't lift as much as the oil rig worker next door. You know?

2013FiveOh The real problem with the Camao today is found in it's massive weight. The styling is subjective. I don't like it either. But "Looks faster than it is"? Hey, I own a '14 GT and LOVE the Coyote motor.......and the car, to my eye, is just far better looking than the Camaro today. That said though......next year's Mustang is going to be IRS and that's an overdue change the Camaro got in '09. I like my new Mustang but even at "just" 420HP the car is very clearly showing the limitations of a live axl set up. Not sure I go so far as to call the Camaro "not fast"........ the new Z28 posted a CRAZY FAST Nuremberg ring track lap. The potential is in the car even if the stock SS comes up a little short. Since 2009 for Camaro and 2010 for Mustang.... 400HP + is the new "base line" for V8 Pony cars........platforms like the Camaro and soon to come Mustang with IRS are pretty much a MUST HAVE for a street car. The live axl is dangerous in inexperienced hands at these new higher power levels.

Having a Stang, and calling the Camaro heavy is kinda like the pot calling the kettle black. The Camaro is maybe 100 lbs heavier. 3600 vs 3700.

Also, I've had two Z06 Corvettes, and driven both of them an aggregate of 40,000 miles, and I've done nothing but oil changes, and tires, and more tires. I am amazed at how reliable they are.

Your funny "American Cars suck" and what do you drive?

the guy dissing

here come all the muscle heads -_-

You got a problem with Muscle?

Marcus Andre you get so butthurt over one statement, give americans a good name and shut your mouth.
