#2388 of 2847 Won't Handle like a GT? by mschmal Sep 24, 2006 (3:49 am)
Um, thats what the Pony package is for.   BTW. there was some question as to whether the Pony package does include the rear sway bar.   I assure you it does. (checked under one myself).   Incidently, the V6 has prolly about 150 to 200 less pounds hanging out ahead of the front axle; accordingly, it may handle even better as the weight distribution is closer to 50/50.   Someone with lots of racing trophies on his shelves once told me "Its more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow."   I live in NJ. We have twice as many state troopers than PA which like twice the size and i think like 3 times the population. Fast is good but 2 fast is not good.   Mark.

Replying to: mschmal (Sep 24, 2006 3:49 am) Is that the package with the cheesy door stripe? Replies to this message: akirby (Sep 24, 2006 7:25 am)

Replying to: gzgtp (Sep 24, 2006 4:19 am) Look at the ad to the left (if it's still there). It's really the grille and suspension mods. The tape stripe is on the bottom just like the others and it can be deleted.

Replying to: mschmal (Sep 24, 2006 3:49 am) Doesn't that Pony Package V6 cost nearly as much as a base GT?

Replying to: lmm (Sep 25, 2006 10:14 am) So about 3 grand shy of a base GT. Add in the performance package that someone mentioned and it is within spitting distance of a base GT, pricewise. And you'd still be lacking a more stout transmission, better brakes, more HP, more torque and, arguably, more "prestige."

Replying to: mschmal (Sep 25, 2006 9:51 am) How long have you owned your V-6 w/pony package? I test drove both the GT and the V-6. I'm pretty sure the V-6 I test drove had the pony package because I remember not liking the door stripe. From my test drive, I can tell you there was no comparison and I ended up with the GT. Not saying the V-6 is not a good car, just didn't delight me enough. Hope you are enjoying yours.
