04 srt-4 runs 0-60 5.3 sec/ 1/4 13.9. How long is the mustang been out?? It took until now to get it to run 5.5 0-60 14.0 sec1/4.

Typical bench racer. As I clearly stated before:
We all know that stock vs. stock it's practically a heads-up race. Best driver wins. It's so close either way that.......who gives a $hit.

Your figures prove that it's a heads-up race. Magazines repeatedly state that when test results are that close, it's basically a tie because 1 tenth one way or the other can easily be swapped on any given day/car/driver. Your obsession with thinking the SRT4 is a faster car is like saying "my yard stick works better than your tape measure". When Mustangers talk about "competition", we're talking about cars that would seriously compete for market share against the Mustang. The SRT4 does not "compete" against Mustang market share, even if the damn thing ran 8's and ran on water, because nobody who's a fan of what the Mustang represents AS AN ENTIRE PACKAGE, THE WHOLE CAR, has the slightest sliver of interest in toodling around in a econo-box-derivative toy car with a steroided 4-pot bee hive. The new '05 Porsche Carrera is faster than the Mustang GT, but it's not "competition", it's in a different class for a different group of people. Likewise on the other side of the spectrum (major understatement), You're driving a Neon...... A NEON.... As I said, it could run 8's, have a hibachi and mini-fridge in the trunk, leap over small buildings and be blessed by the Pope, and nobody here would be excited about a Neon, of any tune or trapping. You're fighting a lost cause here. You can put a hot motor into a Neon, you can make that Neon run 11's, maybe even cheap, but why... I could go to the local homeless shelter, grab a skanky weatherbeaten cheap crack whore, and teach her to cook like Emeril and screw like Ginger Lynn.....but.......YUCK, WHY WOULD I DO THAT????

You drive a NEON. You get no RESPECT HERE!!!!!!It doesn't get respect anywhere, only in your little world. Man You Drive a neon. Keep repeating that to yourself " I drive a NEON" I DRIVE A NEON Doesn't that sound stupid. I bet this is your first sort of sports car! It has to be! you slap a turbo on a mini van and it will turn some good times. That doesn't mean I'm gonna get one.Besides your 230 hp engine your so proud of . what else on that srt is impressive??? The big wing? The ties & wheels? The neon tag on the back?the 4 door? It's a neon with a turbo!!!! WAKE UP AND SMELL THE MUZZY!!!

2nd gen were some of the ugliest, but i guess everyone has their own opinion, i've never been much of a fan of any of them except for the 1st gen, but those renderrings for the 2007 look bad a**. It will be interesting to see the actual specs

And Im the one puffing my chest,Ok your the one going on about your 11 sec car. Im stating facts on what both our cars run stock. For your info i have raced gts and yes i did win, and about your 11 sec theres srt4 running 11s and lower, and im sure they spent half of what you did do get your 11 sec car.

BWA HA HA HA HA ... yea it's stock, but comes supercharged... psst hey buddy wanna run against my "STOCK" Saleen? That's what you should be preachin! Let's run apples to apples your "stock super neon" vs my "stock S-281 SC Saleen" Every argument you try makes you sound more stupid.

The Neon is God awful ugliness. If they cost 10k brand new and ran 12.9 stock I still couldn't be seen driving one without a bag on my head. I rate the Evo the same way.

You must be stupid! apples to apples? you retarded?? 05 gt has 300hp just a little over 300bls of torque. srt-4 230hp 250lbs of torque. Ok then let me get a viper and piss all over your Factory Ordered Road Disaster. The one thing you are right about is that you have to look at your higer end cars to take out the srt-4. Dont be hating because the rest of the car world is moving up and ford is left behind.BITCH

Hey maybe you can shed a little light. Is it true that the 04 srt-4 is going to come in 3 colors name unfried white, Pork fried, and Chicken fried?

I was simply saying that you guys have trouble beating a srt-4, and your looking for competition, PLEASE! Whats with the name calling?, and im the child? For everyones info. Any gt until now would get beat by a srt-4. The 05 would be its closes race. 04 srt-4 runs 0-60 5.3 sec/ 1/4 13.9. How long is the mustang been out?? It took until now to get it to run 5.5 0-60 14.0 sec1/4. So dont tell me that dodge didnt do a great job with the srt-4. Someone asked how much it would cost to get the car to run 11s alot cheaper then yours. with only 1500 dollars you can get an srt-4 to run mid 12s. Thats amazing!!! Not like the most of you guys i respect everyone, and there cars. So stop with name calling.

Uhh maybe we should review your first post.

Whats not out there that cant hang with ford. Be realist and stop with this bull ****!! My little SRT-4 will spank the **** out of any of your Stock Mustangs. They ask for competion please!!!!!!!! "

Uh yeah you didn't come here to start anything. Maybe you should go reread all your posts. Gosh I bet you hate it when people use facts.

To put an end to this argument, the most outrageous street car ever produced happens to be the 427 SC Cobra. FORD POWER. 0-100-0 in 14 seconds. You can't beat cubic inches.

lets ALL ignore this guy and when a 2005 muzzy pulls up next to his NEON He can see a real car. No offense neon4life,but you own a neon with a turbo. That's all it is. The mustang is an icon and will grab the attention from all cars on the road when it comes out.Only a few weeks away and no one will even glance at your neon.Not that they do now anyway. So Sorry that you feel the way you do. You have that ricer mantality and RICERS are garbage.Oh, I know the neon is not a ricer. Look at the thing. Go out to your car and take a hard look.It's a Neon MAN!! A friggin Neon!!!! I have no clue what your thinkin!!! take a real good look at this pic and try not to laugh to hard.Love the 4 door look, volks beetle front and rear window. a windsheild bigger that the roof, I got better wheels and tires on my bike, bent popsicle stick wing. I can go on for days tearing this piece of crap apart.Anyone driving this thing looks like a dumb dork.
Introducing the NEON srt 4 . The so called sports car for DORKS!!!!

you have any idea what a newer GT with 4.10 gears and some sticky tires will do?

the little turbo cars have always been easy to tweak, look at the 1st gen DSM's. fast and fun for awhile, until something breaks. how many 11 sec passes do you really expect to make on that motor?

blah blah blah about twice the cylinders, but hey buddy you must be forgetting about the f-ing hairdryer hanging off your motor, let me throw a turbo on my stang and see who wins. thats what i thought. they are different animals, so run your handful of 11 sec ET's, spend 10k to do a performance rebuild on your motor when it blows, and have fun being spanked by a 2000 GT with gears, exhaust and a blower...all stock internals, mind you.

Well...... Actually, Ford hasn't owned that "fastest street car" moniker with that 14 second 0-100-0 for awhile now. The new Viper, Porsche GT2, that new AMG 600SL and the new Mclaren-built Mercedes supercar and a host of more exotic but nonetheless "street cars" obliterate that 14 second time. Even a Z06 can match that 14 second figure. The Cobra held the crown for a long long time, but there's some simply STUPID fast cars that you can buy and drive as a daily driver today if your pockets are deep enough. As far as FORD power goes, the new Ford GT is WAY WAY WAY faster than the 427 Cobra was. They recorded an honest and certified 205 mph in high-speed testing in Italy recently!!!!

Hey Ricks your right about the modern cars. But when you consider the technology in the 60's, the cost of the car then, (about 7K, you can still buy a new CSX for about 130K) the SC was & will always be the bench mark for the ultimate street car.

Anyone who has driven one will agree, it is a brut, none of that cushy a/c, roll up windows, etc.

Be fair now. I think it was actually over $8K, and in 1965 you could buy a nice 3,000 sq ft HOUSE for $20K. You've got to adjust for inflation. Even still, it was a bargain back then, no argument here.

If the Maro has a 375-400hp motor you could throw some slicks on and maybe a few bolt ons and have a 11 sec daily driver with little investment besides the cost of the car. The best part would be its all motor 11's.
