    The 7+ year old Ford GT still hangs with them pretty good...

    Sure, GM is in the business of keeping the Bowling Green plant going cranking out Corvettes because it's a big money loser and they are spending hundreds of millions developing the C7 because it'll be a money loser too.

But it's still just a mustang, right?





    And that was in 1998.

    What about when GM challenged ford to a drag race back in the mid-late 90s? GM brought an f body with a 572 and ford brought a 94 cobra with 600ci bbf? GM lost the drag race by about a full second and the mustang still never had traction. LoL 855hp n/a. 10.3 at 135 on some drag radials from the 90s. Lol! 0-60 in 1.9 seconds. SVE was badass. This shows that GM has never had a leading edge in performance, ford just didn't produce them because there wasn't money in it, they also didn't file for bankruptcy.





    This, the ford GT, the coyote and the 13' gt500 is why ford is the greatest.

    I really had my heart set on saving up for a used C6 Z06, but this new GT500 makes me question if that is the best choice.

    hahahahaha. You compare two one-off drag cars and claim Ford is the GOAT of all time in performance against GM. That is just hilarious.

    Yes. Because that really really really really matters.
