05-06 stang GT vs. 05-06 GTO. (STOCK for STOCK)??

[doodad]

guys, l own a stock 06 stang GT and l believe 05-06 GTOs are faster than us and they car beat us on the street and on the track. but these people say it is drivers race.. or even race.

what do you guys think? honestly!!! am l wrong or right? (assume both drivers are decent)

I would put my money on the GTO's.

Eh, it's only a drivers race if the GTO messes up. I only have times for the stock '05 models of the cars but the GTO beats it by half a second.

'05 GTO runs the 1/4 in 13.0seconds
'05 Stang GT runs the 1/4 in 13.5 seconds.

One thing you will soon learn or should soon learn Erdal, the truth hurts but also doesn't always need to be shared. Most forums are filled with people that want to pat each other on the back and praise each other for making such a smart choice of what auto to represent themselves with. Even if deep down hidden in a secret room they know what your telling them is the truth (which they do), they don't want to hear it or think about it. I know there are plenty of cars out there stock for stock that will beat our cars or even mod for mod will probably beat us. There is always going to be something bigger or better out there and thats a for certain. While GTO's and Mustangs appeal to two different markets, yes the GTO is without doubt the more powerful auto and will beat the stang with the same skill driver in my opinion but its not a slaughter by any means, so why push those guys buttons and make them dislike you by beating them over the head with facts or commen sense knowledge. Just go in there to support each other in enjoying the cars you have and not making note of what might be better in anyway. All you're do with that is making them dislike you.

Damn, thats a faster time than I seen in most publications for both cars. Most GTO's I see are around 13.2 - 13.3 and most mags claim the mustang to be 13.7 - 13.9.

l relaize that but these people are sometimes these people are making me sick. l just dont get it.. a fat 2005/06 stang GT 300hp (ok underrated, lets say 320hp) and GTO has 400hp.. kinda heavier but still faster..

did you click the link and read the web site?

damn gotta love F-body guys.. most of them are so nice! and most of the mustang guys are jerk.

Well they even quote the source. So I guess Road & Track and Car & Driver need to start taking lessons from the Motortrend boys on how to drive cause damn thats a pretty big difference right there. Wow, pretty soon we are going to be seeing stock 10 second street sedans and coupes if this pace keeps up.

, hey now. There are jerks and nice guys on each side. Hiflow and Gtstang from the mustang forum here are pretty good guys and I talk to GTstang pretty regularly (infact just today), sure we bust each other's balls about driving a stang or a f-body but there is a mutual respect but I wouldn't hold it against him for making the off comment when the Stang boys are around that F-bodys suck and Mystangs rule. Just like I don't think he would be aiming for my sack if I make the off hand comment about how mustang owners should upgrade to a F-body. It's human nature and as most people say, be happy with what god (satan in your case 666) gave you . If they want to have a circle jerk on a "mustang" forum. To praise there and your car. Let it be. There are plenty of GTO's out there to make them accept reality. Its not your job.

, l didnt say all fbody guys are good or all stang guys are jerk.. most of the stang guys that l have talked on forum web sites sounded like jer to me.. some of the were really cool.

l have been on f-body web sites almost over a year and l have seen just a few bastard fbody owner.. l almost ever argued on fbody web sites.. but stang web sites, everyday l fight with someone..

l just cant handle when anyone says bad thing about fbodies

not here, he meant on the other web sites that l argue with people about fbodies and people dislike me cuz l talk againts mustangs on mustang forums..

[97cavalier]

why is it every time doodad ask a question it some how gets to be a fight?lol. Well to answer the question i would have to say the GTO, which by the way they quit making after this year, and are SOPOSED to come back out when the camaro come out with a "new" look, like the old GTO's

[goldz28]

I thought the new GTO has like 400 hp. The new stang has what 300 or so. I put my money on the GTO, at least you can burnout...lol Sorry Erdal had to...

[FTheMan]

He overrated his Mustang by 20 hp and it has less then 300 hp at the wheels?
That is right isn't it?
The GTO has 400 hp but 350-360 hp at the wheels?

I'd have to go with the GTO on this one. It might be heavier but it looks better and has a bigger engine.
