amazing that I get ripped a new one for comparing a 2010 Stage 3 and 2010 GT500 but yet morons still somehow argue an 8 year old Terminator compares to a modern GT500
LMAO
There is a lot of coolaid on this site being drank
(I am not directing this at any one person as I have not read through this whole thread so don't shoot me if I stepped on your toes)
This thread was actually pretty civil up till now :nonono:
:nono: Don't be dissing on the ol Terminator. That car has a few attributes that the GT500 lacks. The Shelby is a bigger car in every dimension which comes at a price which a few GT500 owners have grudgingly admitted. For a modding platform for someone who wants a "seat-of-the-pants fun to drive" car the Cobra would be a hard act to follow (the friggen chassis has a shorter wheelbase then a Honda Civic ). Some of us prefer the compact sleeker, low-key appearance of the Terminator. The interior is almost completely void of any decorative trim and is all business (Road&Track called it "dipped in flat black primer" look). It’s not likely someone will convince me to part with mine. It has the right combination of features and I consider it to be the best performance car once the flaws have been modded out of it.
No offence. The GT500 in my opinion is the best muscle car you car buy off the showroom floor and Ford has done a great job refining it each year. There are just a few aspects of the Shelby I can't get past. My hope is it gets smaller again and an IRS soon......... A Terminator retro perhaps :coolman:
