Are you used to fast cars?
Expecting too much?
Wasnt a GT?

haha well my dads 98 auto vette only has 350hp stock and it didnt even compare with the GT and my 98 GT 5spd is only rated for 225HP and it throws u back in your seat more than the 07?

I had to test drive 4 different GT's before I bought mine because they all felt slow to me too. In fact I drove a few V6's while I was shopping, and they didn't feel too much slower. I finally just reset the trip odometer to 0 and punched one of them on the highway (it was a fresh fish kid salesman, I gave him his first sale ) when the trip od hit .2 I checked the speedo and it was a hair over 100. I don't think the torque comes on until way up high in the powerband. Around 3000 rpm you can feel it kick in (VTEC !!!) then it starts feeling like a real car. Felt a lot better after CAI and tune.

Gears & Cai+Tune will solve your problems my man.

First time I've heard a mustang compared to vtech lol. When your in your powerband you really feel the torque and power, I'd say anything over 3500rpm its much better. Plus having a stick really makes a diff in my opinion. It felt way faster then my 2001 V6, so i'm happy.

Only 350hp and a lighter car to boot. I guess 50 more horsepower and a few hundred pounds lighter doesn't mean **** in your comparison.
