The same crap was being posted about the 11 GT500 being a 11:20 car and also the Camaro being a 12:50 car. Along the same lines that the Terminator was capable of 12:40s stock.
I see by your signature you are a Terminator owner or were at somepoint. I was also sold it to buy the SS. Now that car was a true mid to low 12-second car (lightly modded) and it would absolutely destroy a stock SS, and 5.0.
I hope you would agree with me that neither the Camaro or 5.0 is a mid 12-second car for 99% of the cars out there.
BTW post some pics of your Terminator, it always has been my favorite Mustang.

ill see if i can dig up pics of my car.
as far as the mustang being a mid 12 car. its certainly capable of it, but people also consider 12.7 to be "mid 12's" so maybe its just a difference in paradygms. a 5.0 should be considered a high 12 car IMO (12.7-12.8) and the camaro a low low 13 car (13.0-13.1) with pretty good drivers in average conditions.
