RoFL, that's too much. BRO, it's a VIDEO GAME, not REALITY! Speaking of GT 500's though, I just saw I AM LEGEND with Will Smith, bad aSS GT 500 scene in the beginning! [:D]

[:D] Yeah that car is bad ass. When I graduate college in 2 years I'm going to treat myself to that car or a original bronco [8D]

How do you choose between a New GT500 or an Original Bronco? Is their a personal story to that one or just something you always wanted? OP- So you were racing a 1960 Shelby GT500?[8\|]

OP- So you were racing a 1960 Shelby GT500?[8\|] Hmm. A 1960, huh? Must have been one of those super special ultra mondo rediculous rare 1960 models that came out before the concept for the original Mustang did. I heard they had 14,000,000 rwhp, too.

indisposible_teens -> RE: shelby gt-500 new vs old (4/11/2008 11:03:02 AM)
It had to be, It was probably number 5 out of the -10 that were made. I hear that 5 was the fastest and most special of them all.[;)][:D]

Are you really comparing a video game cars performance to a real cars performance???

jthorn9 -> RE: shelby gt-500 new vs old (4/12/2008 3:30:25 PM)
Well the only two racing game generas that have close to real world driving are Forza and Grand Turismo. The new GT-500 is light years above the old 66-70 models. The 68 GT-500 with the 429 Cobra Jet engine was the fastest, however, the new GT-500 is still a leap in technology and performance away. If memory serves me right, the 68 GT-500 was capable of low 13s, high 12s and the new GT-500 runs low to mid 12s all day, not to mention that it wouldn't wreck when trying to make a tight turn. Go play Forza and race the two, the new GT-500, out the box, is a much, much, much better car.

NYstang -> RE: shelby gt-500 new vs old (4/12/2008 5:06:40 PM)
i agree with Jthorn for the most part. except i think the 67 with a 427 side oiler would do better- yes, you could get them. but the 65 was most kick ass of the 65-69 shelbys.

jthorn9 -> RE: shelby gt-500 new vs old (4/12/2008 6:12:43 PM)

Those cars are just so much fun, especially when you take the doors and top off. Since he died I always wanted one of those [&o]

I wasn't bashing, just wondering what made you decide between a Bronco or a GT500. lol I am thinking about buying an 87 Mercedes 190e 16v. They are still one of the funnest Mercedes I have ever driven and they are now over 20 years old. So I can definitely see where you are coming from. Jthorn and Nystang, Does it really matter which is the faster of the two?[:D] I would gladly take any of the models and years.[;)]
