ur funny.. corvette owners are some of the most close minded car people i have ever ment.. if its not a vette, its no good.. and comparing a bolt on c5 to a bolt on c6 is a little silly, there not even close. a five-o will take down a ls1 c5 mod for mod hands down.. what ford has done with the new five-o is absolutly amaizing.. i have two bolt on five o's around me that trap 120, bolt ons only.. have u driven a new mustang yet? didnt think so.. mustangs vs vettes is a age old internet battle, but really its apples to oranges..

Everyone is loyal to their own car brand, but for an apparent mustang lover to call a vette lover closed minded is just a LITTLE funny
For me persoanlly, I would gladly take a slightly slower (still fast AND georgous) C5 over any mustang. (It's just cool that I don't have to
)BTW,I didn't had any trouble at all with the five O I met

Love these stories !!! Typically stangs boast big HP numbers-- but it's all upstairs-AND the make horrible TQ at low-mid RPM's--A C5 is much lighter and has a pretty straight TQ curve all the way down to around 2800--and it'smuch higher too !!!
If you took a C5 and a mustang regaurdless of mods that have basically the same RWHP--the C5 would win every time---TQ is the secret !!!

Sounds like you need to head back over to the ruststang forum so they will back up these wild claims

You need to race my wife's Focus... It will destroy my s/c C5
Not really,,, but it sounded nice...
You might be surprised at what Roush and Shelby are doing with the new Mustangs... 800 hp is not uncommon.
We still love our C5's even if they are not the fastest cars at the track.

Of course apples to apples would be the GT vs. the Camaro SS.

I've owned 4 Mustang V8s and still have my 2nd Camaro Z28 alongside of my C6, I love any/all domestic nameplate performance cars.
But you do know that bolt ons only C5 LS1s have gone 11.2/11.3 with C5 Z06s having been in the high 10.8 to 11.1 range, right?And yes, I know one gutted 2011 Mustang GT 5.0 has gone 10.9s with bolt ons as well.

P.S. I'm a traitor, I own a '65 mustang that I hope to restore.
