That's super snake power. Must be a fun drive..lol

Neck snapping torque even on the highway.

Must be running a different set up to get it to the ground, I'd imagine...street tires would just boil...

ET streets and you can still roast them.

With 680 hp in my firebird formula I could roast anything(tires) hard a hard time hooking up even with fully adjustable spherical link suspension.... Including on the interstate.. Just floor it..so I can imagine..I think that mustang is probably 600lbs lighter..but I've never owned a Shelby.. So..now its in my hunt..I've had several opportunities.. But haven't squeezed the trigger..

 

[Mustang02]

Two totally different cars. You're going with old school and new school suspension. The faster this car goes the tighter it gets.

I wouldn't think a 2000 and a 2008 should be that far from each other. But idk..like I said..I'm not a ford guy..wouldn't take much to learn them though..

Just looked...it looks like a arms in the back for the mustang...and for the f body, a torque arm, and lower control arms, with coils and shocks.. Nothing revolutionary about either one .

All this talk of 600+ HP...I'm just sitting here enjoying the 220 HP I get on my little GTI [emoji23]

220 is enough for some people.. Usually in smaller lighter cars..my Silverado is pushing about 400 and 450 lbs ft of torque..but in a 4500 lbs vehicle..it leaves something to be desired..6-700 hp in a mustang or a 4th gen f body is a lot to put down(and stay streetable and so almost anyone can handle the car)..these new 5th gen camaros feel like a low truck except tighter suspension.. To me but handle lots of hp well because of the weight...

My 270HP Altima gives me decent power while keeping me off the cops radar. I do however look forward to getting another vette someday.
