Wrong forum....

Nice car though.

Impressive engine, I hope the Charger gets it too.

This HP race is going crazy, it wasn't long ago that the Viper had only 400HP and 450HP

i aint skerrred. it weighs over 4,000 lb's and needs a humungous motor and displacement to reach the 400hp mark.

hurry, someone compare this car to the 05 mustang and i won't move the thread.

05 300C SRT-8 vs. 05 Mustang GT
1. both coming to a dealer near you soon
2. both competitors in the muscle car showdown for '05
3. both have decent HP ratings.

good enough for me ... the 300C SRT-8 looks pretty sweet. wonder how the cobra will add up when it comes out next year.

Both American V8 RWD.
Both making German and Japanese cars look underpowered and overpriced.
Both making GM go back to the drawing board.

Well stated!

Mr.Ford, that's what I call... Loosing the edge!

one is half mercedes.

 

[Power4]

They both have retro styling, but the Mustang looks awesome while the 300C could use some work.

 

[CarrollShelby]

Yes, it a big familly car... But watch the new Charger R/T with the same motors! Yaouch... It's war zone in Detroit!!!

 

[Rootus]

The 300C SRT-8 probably costs half again or more than the 05 Mustang GT.

Yeah, well, the 05 Mustang is being built alongside Mazdas, so...

 

[CarrollShelby]

Mazda... Maybe a ROTARY motors is coming soon for the Stang's!

 

[Power4]

Yeah, well, the 05 Mustang is being built alongside Mazdas, so...

But it's based on the same platform used to build the T-Bird, Lincoln LS, and Jag S-Type

I just can't wait for the EPA and the gov't. to jump back on all the auto-makers asses about all the high-HP cars and trucks, we're gonna drop back to like 200 HP GT's just like the early 80's.

 

[CarrollShelby]

EPA... That's probably why? They don't talk to much about the new Cobra or Shelby... I hope not!
