To this in a couple of days.... thats pretty good



His response:
Are you really that big of a moron? Please tell me you are not. GM makes the Charger, Challenger, Camaro and 300. They are all based off the Zeta platform which is why they all feel the same or VERY similar to drive. Is the Evo based off the Acura's platform? Is the Lexus based off the Infiniti platform? Didnt think so. Yea, those cars dont feel anywhere near the same to drive.

after that he post the GM money article and everyone pretty much clowned him and it went downhill, until he got pissed called us all fanboys and told us he didn't need us or our stupid forums.


Ah Man I missed all the fun

As the car neared it's release date it still did not have a name. Among those considered were "GM", "Panther", "Chaparral", "Wildcat" and even "Nova". Buick ended up making use of the Wildcat name while Nova went on to become another muscle-car of note. The GM idea was ditched because the corporate powers did not want the letters associated with the car in case it was a market failure (you can bet they're kicking themselves for that decision). Finally they came up with a word that they thought had no meaning and sounded sporty… Camaro. When asked what it meant, Chevrolet product managers told the press that it was, "a small vicious animal that eats Mustangs."

Not to be outdone, the nice people at Ford found a different meaning in an old Spanish dictionary that defined the Camaro as "a small, shrimp-like creature". Taking the joke even further, some journalist found another alternate definition that meant "loose bowels." In response the folks at Chevrolet found an old French dictionary showing that the word meant "Friend" or "Companion


Amazes me that GM and Ford used to be that competitive.

No way. Two mustang owners dont like what Im saying about a mustang on a chevy board.


I would of never guessed that.


But feel free to let me know when you post anything useful yourselves...with all your infinite wisdom.



BTW speaking of babble......1/3 of your 238 posts do nothing but babble on about mustangs. Not counting the ones where you dont even mention the word mustang or gt500. That would probably take up another 1/3. Leaving you 1/3 to post about your challenger and a few random topics and you telling people your more important than them. Dont believe me search it.


But your the one who calls people "fanbois".LOL

To be honest I would have a Camaro if they would have delivered what I EXPECTED. The design look's to Korean for my taste, not to mention it's fat ass. This Mustang is my first non GM vehicle ever and I am very happy with my purchase. Who know's maybe in the future they will design one I want.

I heard this car had a meltdown last month in the CA desert while doing a shoot for Motor Trend... Hasn't made the magazine yet...

Unless Ford paid them a load of $$$$$

Ok it was an over statement but I can certainly see the asian influence that came from the designer wich is Korean. And before other's get upset it is just what I see when I look at it.

I was very disappointed when they did'nt stick with the concept.

LOL really? Please tell me why that is. Because I honestly dont know why I should feel proud that you come here. Im proud of many things in my life. But none of them pertain to anything to do with a message board.

I didnt really bash it that much. I never doubt its performance or potential. I just think the Super Snake looks like it belongs in Fast and The Furious.




In fact the Super Snake is just
