is that really the best you can come up with? Look Im a Z fan.. more so then most, as I own many Z's and plan on owning many more..

however, to act as ignorant to facts as such that the 5.OH is a surprisingly awesome car, is well, stupid

No need to get upset just a bit of friendly banter. Mustangs have come a long way, loads of power. Here in So Cal there are TONS of them and very few Z's they all want to run us on the street, they have the edge,, in the mountains they won't follow, so we each have our area of success I also have several Z's from 240 up to 81 turbo,, now with the 370,, still love my old cars..

So relax and enjoy...

I'd follow, Lenny! I've always been a handling over power kind of guy, so the mountain runs are what I prefer to do!

He is just playing around. Anyone that isn't a fanboy knows that the Brembo 5.0s are pretty nifty in the twisties.

Power makes handling a lot more fun.

I mean, Miatas are great and all, but most of us obviously want that extra punch.
