Ok then.....might as well throw in the T/A then too

Stock ls1 camaros and firebirds just can't compete with the 03+ Cobras... Sorry GM guys but it's just the truth. And don't take my comments wrong, I am a fan of both. In my opinion, were entering a great age for horsepower, with the mighty GT500 and 500 horsepower ZO6 on the horizon. It's going to be fun times when those two bump heads on the street...

Well since the T/A is in there, might as well as add the Cougar and 'Cuda, since they were pony cars too.

Way too give no opinion....lol
Which do you like better then, Mustang/ Camaro,
You have to have a favorite, even if you like both

Challenger wasn't the competition for the camaro/mustang battle. Challenger was the bigger actual "muscle car" not the "pony car" crowd...However i like the Challenger the most of all the old performance cars (ie stangs,camaro,cuda,etc..etc...). I was kidding with the 6.0 GTO comment, i know you meant the looks of the car, in traditional pontiac styling to make the car "different" from the previous year or older model they cut some holes and called it good.

What is the transam being thrown into? The 04 cobra v. SS camaro battle? Transam is essentially the same as the SS with near identical performance.

Now it really is no longer the camaro v. mustang battle...Not until GM gets it head out of it's ass and does something right for a change...

No.....now were going Mustang vs. Bmw 2002

will69camaro · 06-03-2005, 02:10 AM

straight line or in the corners...i think the Cobra would hand it to just about every BMW i can think of...And if price is still an issue, look at the price difference between the cost of a BMW that could come close, and the cobra...

I meant the old 2002 models, not year 2002
But since your going the direction, the new M series, whether 3, 5 will kick the crap out of that mustang or any other

will69camaro · 06-03-2005, 02:41 AM

in a straight line 03-04 cobra will own a M3...However i'd rather own an M3 even though they're way overpriced...

well i dont know about u guys but i dont see many cobras 03 and newer on the streets, and from what i saw they are a bit pricy as well. i dont think compairing a special edition mustang to a z or an ss is fair playing field. i would say v6 to v6, gt to z, ss to roush, and the cobra has nothing to compete with...some will say they went after the vet on that one but others will argue that down, but if u wanted to go the next camaro up then u will be looking at those 427 special editions and that rich mans zl1. they own cobras all day. is it fair to comair those cars to it? i think ford played the game a bit better than gm because they really made more specialty cars than gm did that a adverage guy could afford. so now were stuck with fighting off cobras with a ss or a z (same car). add a few mods of your own and u would own that cobra, but this goes back to last months statement...its all about which driver has the deepest pockets!

broddie50 · 06-03-2005, 09:06 AM

My opinion is that the Cobra is a faster car period. We can go on and on about, "what about sprayed and cammed ls1 or kenne bell or whipple charged Cobras" all day long, really its a matter of who has the most money to spend on moding their cars. Out of the two, ls1 vs Cobra, I'd take the snake...

philly rs · 06-03-2005, 09:19 AM

pretty much short and sweet of what i said, i dont think its comairable but we do it anyway, but the bottom line will remain as this... a regular gt mustang till this day still hasnt peaked at 300hp it is what it is. they are the slower car, but in the bonus round they do have a few special mustangs that can get-r done! this time next year i wont care much what the hell the other guys driving, if i have to put 10 grand into my motor to get what i want i will but when its all said and done im trying to be damn near close to the top of the food chain, damn a vet, or a 4th gen z, and any mustang on the street, and do i need to say damn imports...rs will stand for respect. i got nothing else to spend my money on so im going for the gusto.

You think so? I was reading around and muscle car club said that the Challenger was the last one to get in on the pony wars at 1970. Also about the new Mustang GT, I was surprised that it only went up to 300 HP, pitiful if you ask me since Chevy already ran and laid down the road in the late 90s.

It's like ford is behind, but at the same time ahead.
