n00b Question - Performance Specs
Hi guys, I am looking at trading my Honda Prelude for a new V6 Mustang since Ford has 0% APR right now. I cannot seem to find too much about the V6 Mustang online (most of the info is on the V8). As much as I would like the V8, the insurance and added cost to MSRP are out of my reach right now. I was wondering if anyone knew the quarter mile time for a 2006 V6 5MT. Also, anyone know what the car pulls on the skidpad off the top of their head? Thanks!

lol welcome to the mustang club! and good choice on the mustang over the lude 
so the 1/4 with the MT seems to be like mid-low 15s with skill? (fazm right?)
i have no idea about the skid pad, mustang in general are not really the type of car for that kinda thing

v6 is 15.3 roughly in the quarter mile.
not sure on the skidpad thing, but i think its like .79 or so (due to the horrible tires)
i took my car 100% stock to a 15.26 (about a 15.04 at sealevel) in my car.

i think the gt pulls the mid .8s on the skidpad with the pneros, the bfg's are in the mid to high 7s on the skidpad.
im not an expert lol, id consider myself above average in driving the 1/4, but not an expert.
