I noticed this trend and was wondering if you guys might know what's going on. In 99 when the new style mustang came out, magazine times for the 5 speed GT were 0-60 in 5.5 and 1/4 mile in 14.0 at 99. However, if you look in the later magazine issues where they test the later ones, the times are like 0-60 in 6.0, even saw one was 6.2, and the 1/4 mile is also slower and down in speed by quite a bit.
So I'm just wondering what's going on that would cause the discrepancy in time over the years. Are the test drivers just not driving it as hard? Or did the change to the 3650 tranny change the ratios enough to slow the car down quite a bit?
