2005-2009 V6 Mustangs - LETS SEE EM!!!

[Synyster06Gates]

The same MO of almost every v6 mustang owners is..
1- Buy 6 cylinder mustang
2- spend thousands to make faster.
3- still slower and more expensive then buying a v8 mustang.

why

Wrong. I had an 00 V6 that could outrun lightly modded GTs (up to 04) all day long.

Cam, full intake, full exhaust, UDPs, 4.10s, and probably some other small stuff I missed.

Made about 240 rwhp and had a factory weight of 3050 lbs. Grand total I had into that car including all new paint and front/rear bumper covers was around $6000. This was back in 2008 when New Edge GTs still cost $10-11k easy. Not to mention I had a unique car that seemed to get more attention than most GTs when I lifted the hood.

exactly. Who want s to see secretary's cars?

Im all seriousness, why would anyone buy a 6 cylinder mustang? Serious question.

Because I wanted a mustang because I prefer the look and feel over anything else. I also couldn't afford a GT being a college student. It also should noted that iv driven auto V8's and I'd take my car over them.

Mommy and daddy didn't buy my car.

That's okay, just wait until next year when a modded ecoboost 4 cylinders hurt the feelings of some bolt on 3v V8's.

Because my stock V6 is as fast as a 05+10 GT..and its my daily driver. And when I want to drive a real mustang I just pull the 600 Hp saleen out of the other garage.

Unless you have some pretty substantial mods... no, it's not. Especially when you get into bolt ons and other mods. My mom thought her 2011 V6 was "as fast" too.

Here are some pics of my lil ol sixxer. I will probably be selling it soon for a F-150

The first day I picked it up

 

[Slowstang305]

My first stang was also a V6. I loved it! It went through some changes.

Mine is just a fun good looking cruiser.

Still did not answer my question. Why not a GT and have a MORE fun cruiser?

3000 lbs? LOL.. More like 3500 + driver and 240 rwhp. Thats not a recipe for as fast car.

Stock curb weight for the 2000 V6 was 3064 lbs.

Would you like to argue some more?

Im not dreaming, I own a 2011 V6...rated at 308HP and run high 13's. My V6 has as much balls and is as fast as your so called scarey GT. LOL

I still wonder, why not GT500? or Boss 302?

A few bolts ons and you would run 12s. Pretty sure American Muscle has one in the 11s.

 

[OneQwkStang]

It is just my DD..I still have my Saleen if I want 11 seconds.

I chose both

Still, 11 second daily? What could go wrong?

My mistake. I was thinking S197 since we ARE on the S197 forum. Did not realice it was a 2000. I still don't think a 2000 mustang is that light tho in real life

308 hp is about 40 hp short of my car + I have a boatload more torque. You do know what that means don't you?
