It's the 99-04 Mustangs...

 

U. S. 131 Dragway scale says 3875 lbs for my vert w/me in it. That makes it weight in at 3680 w/ 1/2 tank gas.

 

good kill. i though it would have been closer.

 

I moved most of the E85 discussion to a new thread

https://mustangforums.com/forum/stre...v6-thread.html

Please continue that discussion there /\

 

I was wondering when that would happen, haha.


Anyway, both the new 3.7L and 5.0 are quite impressive engines from a performance standpoint. V6's have always been the bulk of Mustang sales, and now the average Mustang buyer is actually getting a heckuva powerplant. 3.7L making ~300hp bone stock with a strong torque curve, and getting over 30mpg, and it doesn't break the bank.

And let's be honest, the 2011 V6 Mustang is faster than the vast majority of vehicles on the road....most people don't drive performance cars.

 

Yep the new V6 is finally not a damn joke anymore. Should even be enought car to take the fight to alot of performance cars out there like a Speed 3, Genesis, GTi etc. Cars the 4.0 would have gotta pulled by. Sorry 4.0 guys.

 

Geez Blue, does that mean we can't call them Torque Monsters anymore?

 

I agree. I don't see why it would have any trouble pulling any on of those cars you listed. I'd say the Genesis would be its closest competition.

 

No we gotta call em that, it's part of the SS section rules I think.
Stone they're getting the same trap speed as a stock SRT-4 or cobalt SS. pretty cool video below.

Poor Challenger. Dodge needs to get with the program, especially since its the most expensive one in that group.
