I'll go against everything I belive in and say the mustang will probably get you off the line but won't beat you by too much. Highway is another story you'll be able to keep up there.

I don't think it should even be close--the CL will win by a long shot! A 3.0's numbers are about the same as the Mustang GT...

The older 3.8L Mustangs had a sorry 140hp, but the new ones are up to 200hp and even more torque, so it should be pretty close. I'd say that the Mustang would win off the line (especially with RWD!), but the CL would start to catch up later on because of its better breathing up top.

from stats the cl should win...2001 STICK runs a 7.1 0-60 and a 15.6 quarter and the CL runs a 7.3 0-60 and 15.7 quarter...i cant find times for an auto but im guessing about a second difference so yay i win...hopefully. ill post results when im done with him

i raced a 2000 mustang... not a gt and i have a 97 3.0 and i hung with him and i wasnt even gasing all that much... i think the mustang gt will beat us in the regualr street racing cuz of the stop lights and crap but in the freeway i think we would win cuz once the vtec kicks in its over...
vtec= fake turbo or wannabe turbo hahaha

Yea...I'm gonna have to agree on this. Unless its the GT/Cobra/Saleen...The CL will win. Those V6 stangs blow. Damn it though...Why couldn't they have had a CL GT, V8 option .

Hell no a v-6 mustang wont hang with a CL. First off its only 190HP, and secondly its a piece of shit. Gt's are lucky if they can beat us. POS's

I raced a new white gt a couple of months ago. We both took off at a light and I took him right off the start. He spun the tires a little bit, but not much. I had him by about a car length until I let off at like 75mph. I dont know, maybe the dude just couldnt drive.

sorry man but that wasnt a GT then ... i doubt a cl is gunna take a GT stang from launch ... even the auto stangs are hella fast .. thats what most of are geared for quick acceleration... thats why we can hang on the highways cuase we got better gearing for that ...

I've beat v6 mustangs before and by alot off the line and everything. I've also beat stock 3.0 CL by atleast 5 cars(have the video of that one)

GT mustangs and Cobras are a totally different story.

My friend had a 99 v6 auto stang. He put 17" cobraR chrome wheels on it and it was slow as slug shit. I could toy with and embarrass him all day long. I think the heavy wheels had something to do with it, but v6 stangs are kinda like a prude prostitute.

Guess we'll have to change the name of the forum now.

I've never gone looking at mustang forums. Not sure why a "stangdriver" would end up here.

Hey mustang, your a moran. If your gonna get a mustang and hook it up why not opt for the GT. You put so much money into a V6 to make it just a little bit faster than a GT. Your a smart one.

Let's review the rules of the first gen forum real quick.

I have nothing against you staying here, if you contribute useful knowledge to the forum.

You are new to the forum, have respect for other members. If you want to ramble on about "eating shit," as you so eloquently put it, you can post in Ramblings.

I will not have trolling and personal attacks on the first gen forum, that is grounds for banning. People come here to post up questions and exchange knowledge in a friendly manner. If you don't like that, you can leave on the 6cyl horse you rode in on.

Be respectful, and you are welcome to stay. Flame, and you will be banned.

That is all.

96-98 GT's are the slowest of the breed... if they have the standard 2.73 rear axle ratio, 0-60 times of 7.5 are not uncommon.
