Base GT test drive not impressive. What am I missing

[bluebeastsrt]

Has there been polls showing how many on this forum regularly live their life 1/4 mile at a time and those who have forced induction?

I can produce drag videos. Can you produce road course videos?

Exactly! To each their own. But let's be honest. How many PP owners ever see a twistie road?

<-- I absolutely love taking mine out on the curvy backroads in the upper state.

I seen a curvy highway ramp once too!

I was wanting a PP from the get go, drove a premium GT non-PP and knew right away that the PP was it for me. Beyond that the GT/PP needs some rear end mods to get it there.

Im not totally surprised that someone would be underwhelmed with a base auto GT.

I loved the test drive in the base GT 6 speed. LOTS of power.

I'm perplexed at the OP's experience so if possible maybe he can go to another dealer and try a different GT - in Sport + mode at least

I can produce plenty on motorcycles and will when I get my Mustang.
Not into the drag scene. (car or bike)

Did they even offer a PP on a V6????

Oh sorry I thought you owned a Mustang. I'm having a conversation with real Mustang owners. And to answer the origional question. No you don't have video of your PP Mustang on a road course.:doh:

I don't own a V6...That was sold. That's my bad. Never updated my profile.

Finally put a pair of big boy pants on. You need to change your details.

Snub your nose to technology and you will get passed by it. For racing which I did for 15 years, this is very important. For having fun on the street just get what you emotionally want. Same way the Harley and sport bikes feud all the time. Unfortunately for me the gt didn't come close to the "holy crap" factor I got when I test drove my audi the first time. But make no doubt about it, if that technology goes bad it is a heap of money.

All the time. Every on/off ramp is Eau Rouge, when traffic is clear. Driving to work is a complete joy, even in this God-awful, shitty traffic. Then I take her up on Sky Line and have some real fun some Sundays.

Then there's the brakes. Good God Almighty, there's the brakes. Not just safety, but huge fun. Coupled with the revised suspension and grippy tires, they're amazing.

Then of course there's pulling away from light.

I have one section of my drive home, where I blast away from a light, and then take a sweeping right-hander, then a short blast to my exit, and a steep down-hill braking zone before a tight, slow right hander.

Huge fun.
