Its 2012 and the Mustang still has a solid rear axle...

Ford has always done more with less. GM boys act like monkeys when they get an accidental win. Ford...5.0 liter... and former 4.6...small cubes... and still kicks GM 6.2 liter ass. Deny is all you want... facts are facts. :D

Shove it, we all know the true “king” of muscle cars is the car that wins in a 1/4 mile, we all know torque is what you need when you leap off the line, then all you need is to get a large enough gap between you and the mustang. Then, the mustang can floor it all he wants, he won't be able to catch up in the short 1/4 mile. the dyno is mustang 340 lb-ft, Camaro 360 lb-ft. The true king is the car who wins a 1/4 mile. Camaro wins -period.-

chevy has a better look and the mustang needs to lose the attenna

But I'll still take a 392 Hemi in a SRT-8 challenger,you can do more with it...like I said,no replacement for displacement.what you can do with a smaller engine,you can do with a large

[BigHairyFatGuy]

Why a 2010? The new 5.0 will smoke the 2011 Super Slow too... Come on chevy,you should know that there's no replacement for displacement,you gotta bigger engine,do something with it

@Bongwater123: Not every car needs it. But its obviously fine for this generation of stangs considering they are on top of their competitors. I'm still amazed that the 5.0 GT was only 1 tenth of a second slower going around a track vs. a BMW M3.

[Bongwater123]

@V8Supercar1 i wish all cars had a solid rear axle, it would make the car more predictable and give the driver more confidence in fast driving.

@kmk408ci: As for as ride quality. I've never heard any reviewers compliment the ride quality in the SS. But I have heard them say that its stiff. The mustang GT has never been on the Nurburgring. But it has at least been on the Willow springs, and the Virgina International Raceway where it posted slightly quicker lap times vs. the SS.

[kmk408ci]

@V8Supercar1 I do. Not just in track times, but in ride quality. The Camaro SS is quicker around tracks such as the Nurburgring, where the limits on your track times are related to how much you care about your life. The Mustang, while perhaps physically capable of achieving faster times on flat and predictable tracks due to its light weight, is more unpredictable and easily upset at the limit, especially over bumps and potholes.

@kmk408ci: For what ever reason. I always see people talking about the solid rear axle in the mustang. But as for as this generation, I fail to see how its hurting the mustangs right now. The mustang GT, is faster than both the Camaro ss and the Challenger SRT8 around a track, and its even equaled a BMW M3. The boss 302 mustang is quicker around a track vs. a M3 and even a Audi R8. As for as this generation of mustangs. I don't see how the solid rear axle hurts them.
