have fun driving that 2007 model! I just got back from two days at the track in the Vette, whose wasting time? |

C'mon now, the Mustang is just too common vehicle. The Mustang doesn't compare with the Vette in terms of prestige and elite status......the Corvette will always turn heads whenever you see one......Mustang doesn't generate the type of response as I mentioned earlier, too common of a vehicle. So the Corvette easily wins hand down for me, performance wise and its terrific styling.

Replying to: m1miata (May 20, 2005 11:24 am) You write "The Mustangs seem to have a gas fuelling problem in the '05". Please be so kind as to outline the nature of this. We have shipped a unit overseas and now the trade/client is reporting: fuel injection system has malfunctioned and caused the engine to seize - too much fuel has been pumped into number 6 cylinder. If there are any known problems it would be very helpful for me to know. Thanks and regards DRT

Replying to: gtvehicles (Jun 30, 2005 3:36 am) Your clients description of excess fuel in the cylinder causing engine seizure sounds very suspect. You might want to dig a little deeper to find out what really happened. |

Replying to: gtvehicles (Jun 30, 2005 3:30 am) nothing related to the engine, but only in getting fuel into the tank. And by now, Ford I am sure has it solved. Turning the hose upside down is said to work, though I don't know about that. You hear strange things on the Web. The gripe about fuel not going in was pretty common on threads on the Mustang forum. Which is better, a Stang or a Vette? Well they both have their selling points. Both would be fun to own. If getting in and out of a C5 Vette is not too hard on the back at the time, I may buy one in a few years. I liked the C5 series, and found the entry and exit easier than the C4 by far. Still, it does sit low, so it may be hard on the back. I have found, when I owned the Miata, that in town it is harder to drive do to low seat position, and that other cars do not notice you down there. So advantage to Mustang vs, Corvette in seeing over things and being seen. Other than that, Corvettes look awesome, and I am sure out handle the Stang. I do like'em both. For now, I am just cruisin' for a few years - as in PT Cruiser. Gone is the Miata. If I had a garage, a Miata or a Corvette would have a home. As it is now, the car stays outside. Will also consider an 'o4 or maybe an o6 Stang some day, unless I can no longer stand the high fuel costs. In CA it is now $3 for gas ! Loren |
