the 5.0 is only 3/10 of a second quicker to 60 than the Camaro...that's not bad, really. I don't consider is getting my butt kicked...I consider it a good thing...the competition is back on and it's going to push both manufacturers to start making the cars better and better.
Really, all I'd have to do is add 20-50 horsepower and I'd probably catch up to him. It's not as big a travesty as everybody thinks. Especially since most of the trash-talkers don't know how to drive, anyway. I've been challenged to races by guys at work that have older mustangs and they think they'll beat me because of all the stuff they put in it. I just smile and say "no thanks, I have nothing to prove." and then walk away. Besides...the other guys at work have told me that the ones that are challenging me don't know how to drive, anyway.
In my opinion, a true driver will appreciate another man's performance machine no matter what...the trash-talkers are just kids with too much horsepower and no idea what to do with it. That's what I think, anyway.
