No offense taken man, I was just kidding as well. I just dont usually correct people for minor grammar mistakes. I have Progressive insurance on my car and my wifes car and my insurance card in my wallet lists my wifes Nissan Pathfinder as a Util. Truck, and my Mustang as Sports Coupe. Thats what I was going by, and im sure youll say "well they are wrong as well, they are just dope head insurance agents", but its all good man. Either way it doesnt really matter.

I think all he was saying is that by the strict definition of a "sports car", the Mustang doesn't fall into the catagory.

Yeah I know, its just it seemed kinda wierd to me is all, its like someone saying "NASA Rockets sure are one big aircraft" and me saying
"Actually, they arent aircraft at all, they dont even need air to take off, it is a projectory vehicle made to defy gravity and carry a crew to space."

Just wierd is all.
But its all good.

sorry guys,I imagine I took it too far, where I work at the jail you have to verbally be able to hold your ground,and whenever someone does something annoying to me verbally at work i.e. inmate.... I usually verbally overcome them and put them in their place, its like a baaaaad habit...lol I justneed a swift kick in the nuts and ill be ok.....

owwww

GOTTA06!

Actually, having owned a manual '98 GT prior to this one and raced the two heads-up (both stone stock manuals), I'd say you actually beat his GT's transmission and linkage. the engine IS more powerful.
Prior to selling my GT, my wife and I raced from a stoplight (she was in the '06) and she got a great headstart due to FORD's horrible choice of gearing and miserable cheapa-- shifter. The '06 was nearly a car length ahead before I could get 2nd gear notched. I know how to drive, FORD didn't know how to engineer, or didn't care. Any car with a good engine is junk if you can't control it. Have your buddy replace his factory shifter and half his problem is solved. You will still get a decent jump on him though and will stay ahead up to about 50 mph, then its allllllll oooovverrrrrrrrrrrrrr........

I can attest...I was about 2 cars on a gt guy was all reving at me then I left him at the light. He had a nice sounding exhaust "side exit". His car looked good too. Our 4.0's have a perty good amount of power.
