Angry ERRR!

I have a question! Will Ford ever make a car that can beat those stupid Dodge Vipers? They are so annoying, asking $50,000 for a used one! Why, just why, do they have to be so fast?

think of it this way, buy a new GT for around $22,000 right? that leaves you $28,000 to put into suspension, blower/NOS, heads,intake, cams, and what ever else you want, and you still would have probably atleast $10,000 left over and your car would outhandle, out-accelrate and just flat out eat a viper alive, hmm which one would i do if i had the money, gee let me think, umm the stang of course

Speedvision had a race on Memorial Day (that I watched a couple of weeks ago) and this Saleen smoked the BMWs, Audis, Porches and totally ate the Vipers for lunch!!! Saleen had a huge lead (in racing terms). So my opinion is that with a little work we can run with any of them!

Well, see, what I hate is that Dodge commercial! Dodge dodge dodge different! Duhhhhh, you don't see a Ford commercial where the announcer says " Save on almost anything" then show a pic of a Mustang and he says " I don't think so!" I mean, I'd rather have a Mustang than a Viper!
