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.

You should be ashamed of yourself for teasing him after you beat him.

yeah, it must have been a fake 5.0 or something, i don't think a max can keep up with a 5.0. my brother has a gt and it's pretty quick compared to my max, you can feel the torque in his car.

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...

Actually it is 225 hp @ 4200 RPM from 1987-92. So it must have been a 93 205 hp, or less than 1987. By the way, the mustang you referred to is a 1985 with the 210 hp.

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..

I raced an auto 94 GT awhile back with the 302. The guy was an *** that night but I went back the next night and we chatted. He showed me his engine and it was a 302. I'm pretty sure if I whooped on one, you did too.

If you replace the word "most" with the word "some V8", then I agree. Don't forget, though, that Japanese cars are superior even if we lose a race !!!!

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

New Stang platform dates to like 79 I think..

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..
