Yeah I know. Just felt like posting it. They practically give the things away.

Since when is a Mustang really a true sports car? They handle almost as badly as J-Lo handles her relationships.

Yea Stangs blow, nothing really to offer but power, and not that much unless you pay out the anus. overall the whole packages is weak. My bro at work drives a GT and he was ******* my Z till we went to the airport to get maps. now he wishes he diddent blow me off in iraq when I told his dumbass that the Z was the shiznizzle

Nice find, even with the Stang being on top. If anything, I think they are the number one selling "sports car" in the US, so I guess that would lend credence to popularity...

ford musta paid for that spot. all the other sports cars on there are legit. if the average voter is smart enough to vote for viper, enzo, and corvette, there is no way the mustang would be #1!

Don't mean to flame on my first post...but all that article is claiming is that most people visited Ford Mustang websites over any other car. Don't see wut's so crazy about that.

We are in America...it is an American sports car icon...so why wouldn't it be. Plus for the money you can't beat it.

03/04 Mustang Cobra coupe can be had for $35K...and that will get you 390rwhp BONE STOCK. With mods as simple as upgrade pullies you will be in the 400rwhp range.

Now compare that to the top of the line 350z track which only comes with 280+hp stock...and well...I don't care how well it handles it'll never catch up to the Cobra.

Besides a stock 8 cyliner engine has much more potential than a 6 cylinder engine does. Take an 8 cylinder engine and a 6 cylinder...put the same amont of money ino both...the V8 will always come out on top.

You can't compare the two cars. They are two completely different beasts.

Just my 2 cents though

You drive a Trans Am and you wanna know how the Mustang is a true sports car...are you kidding???

What other car has the same heritage and has lasted as long as the Mustang.......Surely not the Firebird and Camaro...they got the boot cuz they weren't selling.

And how can you talk about handling when...again...you drive a Trans Am...what kind of handling do you get in urs????

ur right my mistake on that.

but all my other comments are pretyt much right on.

also i read in a few posts commenting on how people "voted." Re-read the article...nobody voted on anything...it was based on the number of times the respective car's website was accessed.

ah, i thought it was a poll. probably should have looked more closely. well in that case, maybe all those web users browsing mustang pages were searching for mustang repair info.
