Buyin a car cause it looks cool, but is slow and good on gas is something that ricers do. I didnt know we were on a honda forum here??

RE: Looks fast, or IS fast?
Im not sayin put bodykits and all that other stuff, im just saying like new rims, tint, lowering springs. Thats all i think stangs NEED are better rims, tinted windows, and a better "stance"! Isnt a GT mustang fast enough anyway?? Im loving the stock horses i have now and eventually i cant wait to put more horses into the engine but what is wrong with doing the looks of the car first! GT's are fast enough as they come, and definatley can be faster but i understand if you had a v6, and needed to mod the engine.

Vettes might make girls wet, but Stangs get you banged.

RE: Looks fast, or IS fast?
Speed please. I realize I will probably get to do neither, but my preference is to go fastER. Too much bling bling and you no longer have a Mustang. i think someone hit the nail on the head when they said balance. I tend to lean more toward the performance end, but a well done exterior mod turns my head. By the same token, nearly any Mustang on the road turns my head!!!

RE: Looks fast, or IS fast?
i like sounding good and looking good.. thats why i got a few exterior mod's done.. that i did and some the other owner did.. the only stuff to make it look better that i did was suspension... they did mach 1 stuff, light bar, and a bunch of other billet crap.
im consentration on performance..
i had someone pull up to me at a light today in a 05 stang V6... wanted to race me and he said that my stang looked really good. thought it was an 04. he asked if it was one. then someone in a toyota echo yelled at me "nice sounding stang!" when i went past them. gotta love borla's.
im more into performance than looks.. but i gotta have aftermarket looks. i cant stand it stock looking.

I started with the s/c and most of the prerformens mods I have. Power was more inported to me because I love beeting all the ricers. Then went with exterior mods and then interior. I runing out of mods to do Next brakes and that cobra motor with whipple s/c and last custom paint and new hood.
