The engine of the type R is a 1.8l which develops 195 HP! Does any one of you "rice haters" realize that???

Your shitty mustang GT produces only 260 HP for a 4.6l.

If honda was to build a 4.6l engine, they could get 500HP out of it!!!

And even if your mustang is a bit faster, you loose your advantage at the first turn anyways..

And driving a mustang is so boring...
ok, 1st off, i am also a full blown honda enthusiast, but com'n now, don't bring out the "well my motor makes 110hp per liter" arguement.

honestly, it doesn't mean jack shit in the long run. yes, its a great achievement to make that much power with so little to work with, but it really doesn't matter in the end. line it up against the "shitty" gt an the gt will run side by side with it at the end of a 1/4 mile, even tho it isn't as "effiencient" as the s2k.

if u want to go farther into the hp/liter arguement and import dominance in the corners how bout the Z06? it only puts down 405hp from a 5.7 liter motor (only 71hp per liter), but it'll absolutley destroy the ITR or the S2K in both the straight line and the corners...

as for boring...i guess thats all ur opinion. personally i love the neck snapping torque of the V8's...but thas jus my

Driving a FWD car is boring at least the rustang has RWD. Which would you prefer 300hp FWD Civic or 300HP RWD Civic? I would choose RWD, anyone who would choose FWD is smokin' some shit they need to share.

Most V8's including the Ford 4.6L sounds better than most 4-bangers. I dont know if you ever heard a stock viper with exhaust, that sounds shittier than a 4-banger.

KrNxRaCer00,

The S-2000 beats the GT. My ITR with 225HP beats them also.

The Z06 is indeed much better than the ITR and S-2000. I've driven a C-5 and it is impressive. But the Z06 costs 50000$.

Now put a turbo on an ITR with 18'' wheels, and you will be able to beat a C-5, but not a Z06 I agree.

2000 gt vs 2000 s2k=s2k getting beaten. the gt runs a 14.0 compared to 14.2 for the s2k. yes, the 2003's run into the 13's, but with the new stangs, the gt's will also be in the 13's.

as for the the ITR w/ a turbo and 18's rims, no it will not touch the C5, UNLESS u build the internals. on the stock motor, u'll be lucky to push 5-6 psi SAFELY and u'd be looking at mid-low 13's w/ around 240/150 (to the FRONT wheels) compared to the 325/350 (to the REAR wheels) for the vette which would hit mid 12's EASILY if not lower.

and i do agree w/ jackassi, the V8's sound beefy, not like a sewing machine...
