Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords ran the 99 V-6 5spd at the track, and they came back and said it was easier to get that V-6 into the 14's than it was for them to get the first 96GT into the 14's that they tested.

With 3.73's and the exhuast, that 99 should be in the low 15's. I hate to say it, but the new V-6's can give the first gen 4.6's a run for their money with some kick *** driving.

I havent been too impressed with the stock auto V6 I beat them all the time in my truck that runs a 16.4@3000ft

A 00' 4.8L 270hp 4200lbs truck........I raced one at the track in my CRX I smoked him 15.94 to a 16.6 @3000ft, but that might have been cause he had 4 inch wide spoke rims.

Like any mustang I am sure that they have potential if you put some cash into them
