Well with the 4.6 4V i have in my car right at this time,i dont have it supercharged just better exhaust and i was walking all over camaros. Weird,i thought they were so much faster? My engine at a smaller size and hardly been touched up for added power out runs the big almighty 5.7? Gettin mad? no i never got mad in that last writting ive gotten more looks and comments from my cobra than i ever had when i had my camaro. How it looks better sounds better,and for the people ive raced including SS and WS6's and have beaten them who have also said how nice my car is...hmmm pityful as for the focus...it was designed for econo rice burningand it seems to have no problem beating the honda civics or what ever else you wanna throw against it in its class. SVT focus 17,000 les than that of a civic Si and beats and focus comes with a 6 speed..pityful suuure..whatever you say..

Prob because they had slush boxes, without the high-stall torque converters dragsters use. So there goes a half second. So you would win.

OK, to see who is faster over these great distances, put up a scanned time slip, that will be good enough proof.

If you have beat SS' and WS6's your either lying or they are bad drivers. The difference in higher speed is where it is at for these cars,
and thats where the GM cars are even faster. Yea, your car may sound better, but look better?, not, its anyones opionion on that, but here
I get more comments on my camaro than I ever did on my slow 95 GT.


As for the Focus, its almost 300 more dollars than the Civic Si but it is faster, but it isnt as fast as the Nissan Sentra SER Spec V. and that is
mainlywhat I was comparing it too. Ford dosent have anything else
besides a truck that is fast but that is why Ford sucks cause they have nothing to compete with Nissan and others ect.

But Please guys this is getting old now, we know which car,Camaro or
Mustang which is faster, so why do you want to try and prove they are not?

Well call my car a freak from the factory or something but Ive put it to 160 as said on my speedometer, stock chip mind you..so you tell me, I have a 99 Cobra, the supposed messed up year of the cobra. But wait its a cobra!!! its not supposed to go 160. My sisters boyfriend who owns a 98 z28 ls1 saw for his very own eyes and checked to make sure it was a stock chip after we were done. Kodak momment peoples when i saw his face after he looked.

Just another cobra huh?

Goodies for you and your Mustang. But still the 2003 is supercharged.
2003 may be faster, but then it will have to start competing with the
Corvette if the Mustang price goes up any more. It doesnt matter anyway Mustangs sucked from 1994 to 1998 when the Camaro didnt.

I have to say that as much as I like supercharging, I don't like Ford's route here for making more power. It feels like a cheat in a race where the other guy (GM) is making leaps and bounds in the horsepower race by slaving away at the LS1/LS6 engines to find more power. And this is a fair comparison, because in some senses, Ford does intend the Mustang to compete with the Corvette, not just the Camaro.

Ummmmm.......I've got a 1998 Mustang, and I hardly think it sucks. Opinions are like as...... aw, screw it, everybody knows that cliche.

Either car is better than an 84 hon-duh with a 5-inch pipe. I think we can all agree on that
