are those 0-60 and 1/4 mile respectively?potownrob wrote:nah. but they do have the 95 V6 numbers:
1995 Ford Mustang 3.8 9.9 17.3
I know the 98 has a few more horses than the earlier ones. I think I read that if you drive it right, the stick can get to 60 in just under 9 seconds. I want to get a stop watch and time myself one time. it wont be real accurate, but should be pretty close. The mustangforusm said there was one guy who got like an 8.3 0-60 time, but he was a proffesional racer, probably power shifting and stuff like that.

Re: 1/4 mile times good or bad?
Heres how I personally break it down,I guess...
15.5 and slower= slow economy car
14.5 to 15.4= quick, decently sporty cars
13 to 14.4= your starting to get fast
10 to 12.9= you are officially fast
9.9 and faster= you are officially a god of the drag strip
15.5 and slower= slow economy car
14.5 to 15.4= quick, decently sporty cars
13 to 14.4= your starting to get fast
10 to 12.9= you are officially fast
9.9 and faster= you are officially a god of the drag strip

Re: 1/4 mile times good or bad?
my car runs 15.6 stock. my best time is 15.1 at 96 which means it has low 14s in it with a good launch.
heres the commonly agreed breakdown of fastness around here
9 and faster = baller as f**k, especially if its daily driven
10-11 = fast
12-13 = quick
14+ = slow

My car does the standing mile in nine minutes. But I have a lot of red lights to contend with.
