[Shotimes] (OT) British perspective on the new Mustang

[Mark Nunnally]

>Agreed mark, I was complaining to my dad, there was an advert for the new
vette.  It was touting it as "lightweight" at 3152 lbs.
>Light on which planet (cause there might be less gravity)?  definitely not
earth.

It9s better than a 3700 lb 03 Cobra, a 3600 lb 05 Mustang GT, a 3400 lb
Ford GT, and so on!

Even the latest civic test article I saw puts that at 2900 lb.

I take my hat off to GM for addressing weight on the C5 and C6 Z06.  For a
7.0L V8 and very stiff body structure, big brakes, etc...the weight is
pretty darn good.  It9s a 3600+ lb 2 door mustang that9s absurb to me...
