I always wanted a Mustang, and while I'm still a fan of the 'Stang, I'm so happy I got my car instead.

The mustang is cool but alot of mustang drivers are sleeping on the Grand Prix that is why I like it so much. And after seeing what can been done with enough money and time a grand prix could probably keep up and even beat a mustang.

dont forget the Monte's! My Z is great! my friend was shocked when i took him in his Fox body. a built 302 full exhaust, cam, IM and carb.
the best thing is all the suspension too. once the road gets twisty it still got what it takes. and no body suspects it!

As an owner of both a 03 Grand Prix and a Mustang 5.0, I will tell you the 5.0 will smoke the GP any day, anytime. Give your buddy some time to learn how to drive it, and go for it again. I bet he spun the crap out of the tires in first gear. Hopefully he has done smart mods to it, and not mods that counter each other. My 92 Convertible 5.0 with 130K, stock motor, cat back exhaust and slight gear change ran a 14.0 at 98.
Dude, I'm not dogging your car, as I own one, all I'm saying is, 99% of V-8 cars will eat your lunch.
