And...why is losing a race embarrassing? Losing a chick to a guy with a bigger ******* is embarrassing. Crapping your pants in public is embarassing. Farting loudly in a crowded elevator is embarrassing.
Losing a race is BFD.

I think I may be at the wrong forum 
is this the forum for muststangs 
I don't know about everyone else here, but I drive a C3 Corvette, and it is the coolest thing that has ever rolled out of an American factory 
I can't belive that we are comparing a muststang to a Corvette, by the the vette

Last summer I sold my VERY nice 88 mustang GT 5.0 for a new AR Racing 440hp stroker motor for my 76 vette....I liked my 88 5.0 and it was real quick, but it didn't provide much thrill compared to the vette.....Even a nearly stock (230 ish hp) vette is more fun to drive than a 400 hp 5.0. You just see them everywhere, and they feel like a Taurus with a V8!!!! 
If you want a mustang, get an old one...

I just looked at the Saleen S281 Mustang today at a Ford dealer (my friend truck needed a fuel pump -his daily fix 
).
WOW is that a nice car.

14 inch rotors were huge. 325 400 or 500 horse models
If you go mustang, you should consider something like that, or a genuine 68 fastback.

P.S. are you a good mechanic? If not the vette will send you to the poor house in short order. If you are a good mechanic you will be constantly working on it taking time away from your family.

I like all types of cars owned over 20 no BS. I have a 79 vette now, weekend car. I'm car sitting a friends 97 Cobra Vert and its fun to drive w/the top down. True the vette is not a family ride but when I'm driving the Cobra no one waves or says nice car or what year is it.
The moral of my story is a mustang vert is just another little vert dring around town. But a vette is a vette.
It you decide to go w/a stang buy a new model a lease they look cool again.
Hope this helps
