As a Mustang owner, I would like to say this:

I am glad to see that overweight, nose-heavy pile of crap put in its rightful place.

I still can't get over the fact that that porker is TWICE as heavy as my car... it's insane.

If carmakers like Ford would focus on keeping their cars LIGHT, do you realize what performance potential their cars would have THEN?!

I'm impressed that, with the combination of gearing and weight, they managed to only wrangle a high 12 out of a 500 bhp car. Good job Ford, go team.

I'd still choose the Mustang for myself, absurd weight and all.

I think I'll either stick with stupid-modified SN95s, or buy a real car. :p

edit: That said, I still hate Corvettes. As something to drive to work every day, I'd rather have a moped. :p

i like how they gave points to the mustang for having a back seat. if you have feet you cant use the back seat anyways.

I'd rather have the '68 Corvette 427 they profiled in the same issue.

The '68 Shelby GT500KR would be nice, too, but I wouldn't really want a KR. Too soft.

heh, poor foord.. 100 more horsepower than the vette but still loses nearly every performance test.. my question is how did it do better in the lane change test? it's quite a mystery

#11, It could have marginally more responsive steering. I would think that steering response is the biggest factor in lane changes.

#11, 800 lbs will do that.
