Man was this one slow or what!! It was loud, but ****, it couldn't even hang! I know it was a auto, it was that fox body GT style. First time we both hit it, and I pulled easy. I was like well maybe he wasnt racing, so he looked at me and said do it again. I was like okay, So I let him hit it first (I didn't plan it that way just I was not paying attention), and he hit it. I was like crap, down shifted to 2nd, and nailed it, I got up to his speed in no time, and passed him with ease.. I even let off next to him and hit it again just to play. lol!!! That was bad.

The 5.0 has 210 hp? It dynos 170s to the wheels and I dyno 184 stock. Big difference. Sorry there just TQ monsters thats all they are. And I have beaten many Stangs already. It defintely was not a fake 5.0 when it was loud as hell, sounded like a mustang V8 not a v6...

Very true, if I wanted straightline performance I'd go with one of the domestics, but for everyday living you can't beat the Japanese makes..

What about a Rolls-Royce
For the price, I must say the Maxima has a nice looking and feeling interior for the price but I wouldn't go as far as comparing all Japanese makes to Domestics.Can't expect a new Mustang, which dates back to the 60's or 70's, I can't remember which, to have fit/finish and build quality of a relatively new Maxima. If my spelling sucks, Its because Its 5a.m. and I'm on MSN chatting

Compare the Maxima's interior to a Buick Regal GS or Grand Prix GTP, they look like dog cr@p lol! Their leather feels like rubbery vinyl or something...
I'd think that over 90% of Mustang GTs, Firebird Trans Ams and Camaro Z28s could beat a Maxima anyday..I still say that's most..
