I have a retarded classmate who is convinced that the Mustang GT is faster than the McLaren F1..

for the record:

McLaren F1:
Fastest productioncar when it came out, only beaten by the Bugatti Veyron and the Koenigsegg SSX

Ford Mustang GT:
Posh american muscle car with 0 aerodynamic considerations, twice as heavy as the Mclaren


EDIT: We are talking stock cars.. that means stock Mclaren vs. stock Ford (i will even allow Shelby to be in the comparison, because the mustang will never be as fast as the mclaren)

This is a very vague poll. You forgot to mention that the Mclaren is embedded within a cinder block wall while the Mustang was thrown off the Millennium Falcon at .5 past light speed.

To help clarify:

Mustang:

I think the answer is clear.

Then, AND ONLY THEN will the mustang go faster...




When he said that the mustang was faster than the Mclaren, i just answered:
Yes, in a free fall...

ShawN you are right that the Mustang will not touch the F1, but the car above will run with it.

P.S. Let me choose the track and I will eat the F1 for breakfast with the Mustang.

With those aerodynamics? I don't think so.

No, you won't. The Mustang isn't as good as the Maclaren in any respect.

There's no point getting all upset that Americans can't make proper supercars (in fact despite being the pioneers of the automobile production line, the US are falling behind in all aspects of car manufacture these days - not even close to the European and Japanese industries). The S7 is shocking in that it is a proper American supercar and is actually pretty good. So is the new Corvette, though not in the same league it is much better than the Corvettes of old, which looked nice and went fast in a straight line.

The Maclaren F1 is a proper supercar, with proper F1 pedigree. The Mustang is quite cool, but it's not even in the same league. The Saleen, while it would trounce the Mustang, isn't very likely to beat the F1. Whilst the performance figures from Saleen show the S7 as being faster than the F1, 3rd party figures, which tend to be more reliable, rate the F1 as the faster and better handler.

I'd be interested to see the F1 up against the S7. I'm pretty sure the F1 would have the edge, but it'd be interesting to see.

the F1 beats the mustang in speed and handling, but the Mustang defiantly wins in the looks and karisma category, after my opinion that is. Mustang is simply the best looking car on earth at the moment, but the 1967 Mustang GT beats the new model
