I am not the enemy!

Joined a while back. I just like cool cars and have been lurking for a while. Though I would saw hi. I have always been a Mustang guy, but appreciate all thing quick and good looking.

I have been in the car business for 10 years and have driven all kinds of ****, but its always fun to look at a different genre of car and see whats hot and whats not.

So ummm HI!

Hola.

Ionno about not being the enemy i'd say theres a huge culture class there but, I can respect a mustang if they can respect me.

I wish they'd get that damn tarus sho engine into a mustang. I'd love some AWD V6 Twin turbo action going on but you mustang guys seem to hate turbos, v6's and AWD so thats 3 strikes aganist that idea lol.

Ha ha, as I said I am in the car biz and I have been driving a SHO for my demo for over a month now and I love it. I will keep my V8 in my Mustangs though. I have an 07 Shelby GT Supercharged, 2003 Mach1, and a 88 LX 5.0. THe 03 and 88 more mostly stock.

mustang is a great car...and probably the best bang for buck sold today...400+hp 30,000$...evos are great stock but no where near as fast in straight line stock...are you the type that likes to modify your car?...beacause it will respond great...a few thousand will make it a different car...evos can make drag cars...but the mustang will be better suited for this application...but for a track car...a modified evo has few peers...and even fewer considering cost...it can perform well in almost any type of motorsport...drag,rally,track...and be daily driven...room for 5...hardly any cars can claim this...and few if any for the price...

Mustang guy here too.

89 5.0 - procharged
02 GT - Cammed/nitrous
02 Saleen Supercharged
06 Saleen Supercharged


But since my first experience behind the wheel on an evo, sold the 06 Saleen little over a year ago I haven't looked back. Except I miss my Saleen's due to looks.

Extremely clean cars bro. I'm coming from a Mustang background also. I've owned 4 Mustangs and I still have an 85 GT. As soon as I finish building the Evo in a couple weeks I'll start tearing the GT apart and get back to my roots. There's nothing like spinning the tires in first, second, and third gear in Mustang.
