I call bullshit on that statement.  Try this American made car.

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.

Im guessing you drive a pickup truck rofl.

In a straight line the F1 will win
On a bend the F1 will win

Dont know any tracks that dont both of those included.

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.

I think you misunderstood my post.  I wasn't trying to compare the mustang to the F1 for the simple fact they are not, like you said, in the same league.  I posted without knowing any specs on either car. All I did was call Bullshit on a previous post and I posted a car that I said would run with the F1.  I also said that if you let me choose the track or course that I would eat the F1 for breakfast with that mustang.

Bugatty Veron or however u spell it.

even in free fall, the mclaren would fall faster because of its aerodynamic efficiency.

Does the Mustang have stripes?  Everyone knows a car with stripes goes faster than one without.  After all, they don't call them "go faster stripes" for nothing.

It beat the Pagini Zonda, Lamborghini Murcielago, Porsche 996 GT3, and Ferrari F430 to name a few, so let’s have some respect.

but not the BMW M3 CSL

Are you referring to the invention of the assembly line or the automobile? I was under the impression that Benz had a working automobile before Ford.

Ill give you another hint, no the American car market wouldnt be suffering if it met those points.

Debatable. Remember, when Dalmer-Benz bought Chrysler, it was a good thing for Chrysler. It virtually saved Chrysler. Now it's actually Chrysler that's helping to support Dalmer, and Chrysler now wants out and to be back on its own. In another year or so, Dalmer might be in pretty bad shape. The Euro market isn't as strong as you think.

Highly Debatable. The Japanese may disagree with you and they'd probably have good reason to. Toyota consistently makes some of the best all around vehicles in the world. In Europe, don't forget that some of those Euro brands are owned by Ford and GM.

Well, his quote may have been insensitive, but if YOU actually cracked open a history book, you might find how much the Allies depended on American parts, labor, machinery, troops, technology, etc.. It's very true that the United States could not have fought the war by themselves, they needed ALL of the Allies (even the French), but on the flip side, the Allies had no hope (including the USSR) without the Americans getting involved.

EDIT: Sorry. Fixed a typo

The F1.

It's a seriously mega easy question, and your friend should know what is faster, even if he knows nothing about cars looking at the two you can tell which is faster.

I guess calling me a cock gives a good indication of your over all command of the English language. They have the spell check button there for a reason, use it.

Back to the topic at hand. I agree that the American car industry is in the toilet, thats not the issue though. Of course you were so eager to look like a big man on the internetso you blew past the original point and on to some incoherent ramblings about how great the European car industry is.

America still builds great cars, unfortunately we don't have the cheap labor force that Asia does so guess who pays the price for increased cost, the consumer.

Unless I am mistaken the majority of the parts that go into your European luxury sedans are manufactured in Asia. Anyways thats all I got, eat a dick you arrogant prick.

This is going nowhere and I dont mind another useless discussion!
@Chris: ya your fault, but dont worry
