yeah guys I really know what ur trying to tell me..but my brother always says that we little kids....(mustang's,gto's,american muscles ) are no match for them..(tiny body froggy eyes **** ) <-- porsches ...


but there must be some way to prove to him that our cars do have power... i mean somewhere online i read that the auto mustang hit's 5.something and the manual hit's 4.9 but im not sure if it's from 0~120 mph or something like that.

Tell him to give you the amount of money that covers the differance. For the used one it would around &30,000. Tell him you will modify the car to get up to the same cost as his and then see if he thinks the same way. I am sure with 30K you could get the 2005 Mustang GT up to some unbelievable housepower and slolum performance. If he spends 30K on his Porsche he might get a nice seat cover or two.

Who cares about a porshe your car is cheaper and easier to mod... and i agree tell him to give you the difference from his car and your mustang will run circles around that porshe.

Yeah porches cost more but you get what you pay for. What the mustang lacks in the luxury department the porchse has. My stepmom has a boxster here in the garage... i already took her for a ride in the mustang and at half throttle she was already saying it is faster. I'll see if i can drive it tonight

you can talk abuot how much you saved on a mustang but it still isn't a porsche ( i think i finally spelled it right)

Even though the porsche is more luxury it is a totally different world from the mustang, a mustang is supposed to be more of an american muscle car while the porsche is thought of as alittle roadster

"Mouth-talking???!!!" Ok, that's it, nobody, and I mean NOBODY accuses me of talking from my mouth. It's ON!

Seriously though, when it comes to performance, you have to respect a Porsche. They are amazing cars. Once you drive a Porsche then you become very hard to impress, I understand this. Our mustangs can't hang with them, sad to say. But then again, the Mustang is under $30k, and you'd be hard-pressed to find anything at the same price that's going to beat it.

All that being said, there are ways to beat the Porsche. A supercharger under your hood will give that Porsche a good run for it's money at the least. If you've got the money to do it, then a custom twin-turbo set-up in your GT will leave that Porsche in a cloud of expensive Italian smoke.

If all else fails, tell him you don't need a Porsche because you're remarkably well hung.

I personally don't like the Porsche, performance it's great. I don't like the look and the crowd that generally drives them; not my type of people and wouldn't want to be associated with them.

That doesn't apply to them all just most that talk to much. I just personally think that the look is, just, so what. Yeah it looks like a porsche.

Slap your brother in the face to get his attention. Then point out that the 2006 Z06 or the Ford GT are 2 of the best cars on the planet... both American. If he still mouths off, set his car on fire.

Seriously, trying to compare a stock Mustang, Camaro, or GTO to a Douche, I mean a Porsche... he loses all credibility.
