yeah sorry guys! after that fella wrote about the mclaren i realised.... what a dumb question

what i was really asking was which realistically affordable ($20'000 or less used) cars would romp a gt?
Sorry if I came off as a dick. Under 20K that will murder a stang.... Ummm... lol How about a Mach 1, or even a 99-02 modded Cobra. You could pick up an STi and mod it. An LS1 can be had for under 20k as well. But for stock cars, there isn't a long list that will kill a stang for under 20k.

I say you buy a Trans Am!

Its ok man, im new but have seen some stupid stuff on these forums. i deserved it! it must get frustrating when people constantly talk ****!

funny that u suggested trans am, i was looking at a few, i felt like i had to drive laid down! i prefered the mustangs more upright driving position. an the interiors seemed cheep

and brittle. they are sooo damn quick tho! would some 3.73 or 4.10s make a gt feel like it pulls alot harder?

Most definitely. Best bang for the buck mod you can do. 4.10's or nothing less.

I wanted a Trans Am Originally, but I couldn't find one in my price range. They are definitely quick. And it'll take nitrous/supercharger/turbo on a GT to catch one unfortunately[&o]

really depends on suspension setup, engine modifications, tires, etc. Simple answer: it might be a tad too much gear with a sc

There is one small issue with Trans Ams. Before you can purchase one, you have to grow a mullet. While growing you mullet, you have time to work on a new attitude and way of live. Most Trans Am owners have a "mine is bigger than yours" cocky attitude. You will also need to forget your manors, begin picking up cheap women, and start to chew tobacco. [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

If I missed anything, someone please add to the list.

My buddy got an '87 IROC-Z camaro and just because he got a camaro, he literally grew out a mullet and has been going on since this past x-mas with a mullet...in highschool.

I think that a 9 psi centri s/c MIGHT work with 4.10's granted you had some radials...and i dont mean 275's get big ones.
