2013 Mustang GT

40TH4ME · 04-21-2013, 02:09 AM

Well, I finally had to do it. I have always had 2 vehicles but recently I was semi-forced into consolidating down to 1 car. For many reasons, I chose the Mustang GT. It is such a different animal compared to the 370, I just can't get over how much torque and power she has!!!!!

Thought I'd share a few shots tonight, I almost slept in her!

Thanks to everyone here on the boards, this is quite a remarkable community and we should all be very proud of ourselves for keeping the Z torch lit for so long. I'm sure I'll be popping back in from time to time but so long for now...

Not a fan, hate the seats and seating position, Recaro's make it somewhat tolerable to drive. but torque is good on it. But i think GM does a better job on torque delivery.

Congrats though. If a stang is what floats your boat? Enjoy.

You only live once...

The best exhaust note I've heard is from the stang Shelby.
Don't forget to rev up once you see a Z on the road just one way of saying Hi!!!

Congrats! I had an 11 for a little over 2 years and really loved it. Its an impressive car that draws alot of ire from this community... don't let that keep you from enjoying it, though!

Its an absolute beast with simple bolt ons and a damper upgrade.

Pics from the front? Does this MY have a refresh on the headlights or am I imagining things?

Nice. Dang I forgot the pony shines on the ground.
Yeah sometimes having 2 seats only is tough. Congrats in the new ride 5.0 is a beast!

Congrats. Have to admit I do like it. Probably the vehicle i would get if i got rid of my Z.

Congrats! I traded my 09 370Z for a 2010 GT500...which is a fun monster.

As far as the GT, they are far more capable than people realize:

Super Coupes Track Attack! - 2011 Ford Mustang GT vs 2011 BMW M3 Coupe - YouTube

M3 beat it by .09 of a second...GT is better on the brakes and of course 0-60/1/4 mile. And is 25K less than the M3. Of course, I still give the thumbs up if I come across a 370!
