When people ask me I much rather say it has a 8 then a 6. 99% Of people would respect a v8 no matter what year over a v6 regardless of how much power the v6 has. + I need v8 sound. I cant stand the sound of a 6. I will prob just get the stang gear it and tune it and shoot for high 12s and be done.

break out the flame suit buddy.......

I'm just shocked there is so much hate on the mustangs on here. I also use mustang forums and there is no talk bashing a camaro for no reason. Sure the 4.6 stangs are under powered at 300hp. But thats why people gear them.

Number 1: It's a Camaro forum.

Number 2: Bashing the V6 is going to get you run off this site very quickly.

I love the mustang.....regardless of what people say about the new 5.0s I would buy one if I could.....i was just pointing out the v6 comments; everyone starts getting defensive when you bring up SIZE!

Well I don't see the new v6 camaro as a true performance car. The SS yes but no not v6 camaro. It's a cruiser to me nothing more... So why get mad

Your v6 smokes 05+ GT's sorry I find that hard to believe. My sisters boyfriend has a stock 2001 GT and smokes his friends 2010 v6 all day. Torque = ET Not horsepower. And this is a 2001 265Hp 01. More torque then the new v6 and much lighter = win win

Your 305hp v6 that weighs almost 500pounds more with less TQ will kill a 05+ GT?

You guys started this by the way. No one can ever just post normal comments when it comes to talking about other cars.

uhm.. you're aware you are on a camaro site right?

and the v6 camaro is an engineering marvel.. 312hp out of a v6.. that 05-08 mustang with a full liter over the v6 puts down the same amount of power.

kinda sad don't you think?

And no, there is respect to owning a new camaro regardless.. There is a user on here.. poormanscamaro that has a v6 llt camaro pushing roughly 400 wheel horsepower.

As for the respect.. you'd get respect either way.. a 5th gen is a BEAUTIFUL car..

However, if you're going to go Ford.. i'd recommend NOT to post it here and bash on the v6.. not wise.. gonna get flamed.

Hell, you could buy a WS6 Trans-Am.. That'd be better.

I don't say much on here.. but i think this is something that set me off, hopefully the mods will let me go this time.

Why do people go by horsepower? Mustang = more TQ And lighter which = faster. tq = ET. Not 305 horse power on a car that weighs alot. I never see them cars brake outta the 15s....

i'm sure there are plenty of members with timeslips on here to prove this...

suspension, traction and a WHOLE lot more plays into this..

I've been building/racing since i was 13.. Hell i've even built a fox body with a 351w...

More torque and lighter doesn't necessarily mean much... so many other factors.

i put 480 down to the ground.. doesn't mean i can beat a stock ss if i can't get traction..

It don't matter. You guys should learn to be mature when it comes to talking about other american performance cars.
