I'm pretty sure theres Terminators (03/04 Cobras) running around Jersey with 500,600,700rwhp that would beat on all the local imports.
yes there are but i think they are show cars mostly. My buddy with his 720whp civic isnt going to be beaten any time soon i think. There are a lot of 10 second mustangs around but they'll have to do better than that to beat a 2000 pound car with that much hp and a good driver.

my other friend just picked up a 1964 1/2 mustang but its going to need a lot of tlc

this is all that needs to be said... a 720 WHP civic running on the street is next to impossible as it is..... with street tires..... do you even know what a FWD 700+ WHP car does at the strip with street tires?

next time you go, call me.... I'll come out and get a few airplane tickets, maybe have little layover, catch a bite to eat, come out the following week for test and tune and he will still be spinning at the line

A 700whp Civic only running 11's isnt that impressive. Hell Code, a member on here is hitting 11's with 330rwhp.

Ok...I'd rather have oversteer then understeer. AT least you can control the rearend whipping out on ya some amount. As in fwd with understeer you push in corners...

wow haha. Yea we are smarter because we didnt buy a damn ford lmao.

#1: the engines are named after the series followed by how many liters it is and followed by the version(jdm or usdm)

b=series,16=1.6 liter, a2= usdm a=jdm

#2: You ahve a 94 mustang gt. If you like your muscle cars so much then go get a real one. Something before 1980 please.... or maybe buy a better brand...something not made by ford. it's a shame that my 4 cyl can crush your overated v8's.

Hey jackass I was joking and where in my post does it say I love muscle cars... I used to own a damn eagle talon and a ford probe turbo.... and I would like to see your 4cylinder beat my overrated v8 with your amazing mid 14's wow

I just wanted to state that, if civics were really made for handling, theyd be wither AWD or RWD, not FWD, and no, they are not a made as "tuner cars", they are made to be economy cars. Im not saying there arent fast civics out there that can handle a turn, im just saying that thier not a car made for performance.
