thinking of a change
playing with the idea of swapping the jdm scoob for a mustang gt v8.anyone got one or driven one.opinions please
|
man why are there so many stupid people on this forum thinking about getting a ****ty mustang GT.
Wakeup and smell the coffee. Mustang = american car american car = **** car I dont see why anyone would contemplate buying one of those slow, crappy built, crappy handling fuel eating POS. |
guess ya not a fan of 'em then.any reasons??
|
American made, and idolised by yanks who dismiss anything thats not a V8...or american. They can keep their cheap ****. Plus to get one over here will cost you double of what it would in the US. Not value for money in my eyes. Go jap or german :D

Thats funny it seems to be ok with the EVO staff as a long term car. ok not as great a handling as a scoob but 300 bhp and a 0-60 time of 5.6 seconds is not to be sniffed at and the latest Shelby - come on 0-100 in 8.6 thats 911 Turbo performance. just because its american does not mean its a sh*t car. people coudl slate Audi's for being overweight, dull, boring and sh*t handling. a bit like an american car. Also stop calling people stupid on here, maybe he wants a different sort of car. something with a bit of character. stop being so feckin' abusive:nono: |
lol americas best saloon a cadillac CTS-V cannot touch a audi for handling never mind a lowly mustang. Complete and utter different leagues and agendas. Infact show me a new audi thats **** handling. The other things you mentioned are arguably true for some models.
Your right on me being offensive. Ive been a norty boy :o :nono: |
gone jap already.yep it's fast and handles but it's a bit boring now.fancy somthing differant.300hp v8 is tempting or maybe push to a shelby gt500.
anyone got somthing good to say? |

Ive been a norty boy :o :nono: The only decent Audi IMO is the RS4 And yes i've owned Audi's had a lovely A6 2.8 Quattro that was quick and a great bahn stormer but even though 4 wheel drive it handled (and braked) crap due to the weight. I sold it for a Scoob and never looked back. I was impressed with the S3 that i drove once, but compared to a Subaru it felt dull and steering lacked feedback. i would still consider one even though it did not set my world alight. I woudl imagine a Shelby Mustang would set your world alight at every trip to the shops. http://www.svaconversions.com/Shelby%202005.htm |

gt500 came out quite well in evo.would be sretching the budget but will defo look into it.only thing is the lhd not sure if the missus could deal with it

As everyday cars the eveeryday audis are up there with mercedes and BMW. Audi sell more A6's than BMW do 5ers and Merc do e-class' in germany :D |

mum had a old mustang. said it was a heap of ****. she also had a cadillac. said that was a heap of ****, and whenever an american car comes on TV she says theyre all ****. Shes half american BTW and lived in america for a gd part of her life.
Americans cars are generally **** and dont hold their value. Avoid at all cost. The novelty of having a **** car will wear off quickly. |
treehack, you may well be aware, but worth mentioning that Litchfield does Mustangs and JDM Scoobs of course. Might give a smooth transaction/trade in/test etc.
|
Treehack, I may be looking for an 03/04 JDM STi.
What JDM have you got and how much do you want for it? |
audi lover,
**** off.i'm quite capable of doing my own research as to want i want to buy.i was askin if anyone had any experiance of the new(ish) mustang not an old model so if you have nothing constructive to say butt out.also audi's arn't that great,my elder bro' had a fair bit to do with the design of them and he wouldn't buy one in his own words |

What JDM have you got and how much do you want for it? standard apart from zero sports exhaust 4 new tyre's make me an offer via pm http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h1...various066.jpg |
I look forward to the day Audilover comes out with a reasoned argument, instead of unjustified bull**** he keeps spouting (I can live in hope) he's getting worse than PS Lewis, at least he is quite entertaining at times
|
Lovely looking car treehack, it may be too new for me, (budget wise), so I won't make an offer yet. I'll wait till you put it up for sale and see how much you're selling it for, its mileage, history, etc, and then take it from there, depending on the price! It's the first JDM in silver i've seen!

Oh and were you guys getting your mustang and shelby figures from? Cause if they are american you wont have a chance of replicating those figures due to the way the yanks do their testing. :D |

The ironic thing is Audilover drives a Volvo :lol1:
There is something appealing about the Mustang I have to agree, however I would take it for a decent length test drive on UK roads and see how it copes. I cant imagine MPG, and possibly ride and handling might be unacceptable for the UK. Also whats resale like on them? I cant imagine in being that good. You can pick up those Camero things pretty cheap now, and theyre 5.7 V8's doing 60 in 5.5ish. On the other hand if you go for the Mustang, then thumbs up for daring to be different!! :thumb: |
