More manure from Mustang...
No sir, you are correct.

I am just quoting what M/T said that is all. Yes the time was the same, the avg Gs were better for the 15, and it stopped a a foot shorter than the 2012 Boss MT tested. The Boss accelerated faster and had better lateral acceleration.

All I was saying was after 1 magazine review, you are ready to say it can't/won't beat lap times by the BOSS. All I am saying is lets see some lap times. It might beat it it might not, I am just saying isn't a bit early to say that jsut based on some first drive reviews?

I will wait to see some more comparisons before I say if its a let down or not IMO. Just about every review has loved way the car drives, its straight line performance is on par with the outgoing model (which to some is a disappointment, to me not really, the car gained weight, got an IRS and is still right there with the outgoing. Some mags have it slower, some have it faster so IMO thats a wash. It is about what I expected). M/T seemed the most neutral didn't love it didn't hate but said its better than the car it replaces. R&T absolutely loved it. I am anxious to see some comparison tests now.
