LOL, his car is faster than yours and has a better chance of beating the C7 than you do.

I don't care about having the fastest car. Never did, never will. Just not my thing.

LOL @ comparing a modded car to a stock car.

Why remove it. He will have holes there now, so he might as well leave it.

Meh, I'd rather have the two holes there that you can barely see versus that big ugly plate. That's how I'd rocking my turd.

Check your math.

http://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/cor...ub=convertible

http://www.edmunds.com/ford/mustang/...tyle=200465246

That's a 373lb difference. Also including a much lower COG, far better aero, better cornering ability, IRS, better tires, the list goes on.

Guessing you haven't driven a Corvette. A stock Corvette is far more a nimble car than a Mustang with all the BMR goodies possible.

From what ive seen the vette weighs around 3400 -3450 lbs per Motortrend test and the mustang weighs consistent 3600-3650.

C7s are pretty customizable. MT, R&T etc are not going to use the bare bones cars(keeping in mind a bare bones care is still far more advanced and loaded than most fully loaded cars), in test comparisons.

"GM lists the base Stingray at 3,298 pounds, 90 pounds more than last years model." Automobile magazine September 2013.

Also keep in mind that his Garner's car is still on stock suspension IIRC. Going from a stock Corvette to a stock Mustang absolutely feels like you're in captaining a boat. My C5 was planted at all times. Getting in the Mustang with stock tires, etc was definitely a sketchy experience especially over broken pavement. It's definitely much better now though .

Plate is gonna stay, he doesn't wanna get in trouble with the cops. Convincing him otherwise didn't work lol

As far as boat, chevy says a 2lt non z51 weighs 3298, ford says mine weighs 3675. But my boat comment was mainly the appearance of them. Our cars are a foot longer, and about 7 inches taller; although in my pic my car looks even taller than that.
