The only surprise is.. Toyota Tundra 0-60: 5.1 sec?!!

 

Finally, the ralliart made it on to somebody's "good" list.

 

We ARE NOT slower than a mustang v6...

 

A stock Ralliart with 237hp/253tq and 34XXlbs would get annihilated by a 305hp/280tq 34XXlb 2010+ Mustang V6

 

^^This.

Don't feel bad; Ford improved their Mustang V6's to the point of past Mustang GT (V8) owners regretting their purchasing decision in 2010 and before...

To stick to the subject... FINALLY, the Ralliart made to a "good" list.

 

This makes me like my car just that much more. Thanks for sharing!!!!!!

5.1s to 60mph and no need for a transmission-breaking tappity-tap-tap on the gas while on the brakes launch like the RA needs.

Also, 2s faster to 100mph than the RA.

 

The new V6s are a beast on the stang.

 

Thats the 2011-2012..

RA will rape 2005-2010

 

Unfortunately, the new Mustang v-6's are also governed to 114-mph from the factory...

they're quick, no doubt about it, but it seems Ford wacked them in the knee with a baseball bat to keep them from being so enticing that people would prefer them to the new 5.0 V-8s

 

Good to see a Ralliart on a list that's actually positive.

I've driven many Mustangs, both V6 and V8 models, and while I haven't driven a GT with the new 5.0 I did ride in a 2011 V6 and it blows the doors off of my buddy's 2003 4.6L GT. And getting 31 MPG? Impressive.

 

114 mph....whats that all about.

 

Ya that's pretty lame actually...but it still rips through the 1/4 at a faster time and trap than a stock RA...but still WTH?

 

It allows them to put S or T rated tires on the car, which saves them some money. They probably put lower-rated suspension components on to lower cost as well, and saved a considerable amount of money on engineering and testing.

 

^This. Easy enough to disable those pesky speed limiters anyways
