Default supercharged mustang

So when i got to work yesterday my boss asked me to drive his nissan to the shop to get a tune up, so i did. Then on the way back to work i rode with him in his 05 supercharged mustang. Dear baby jesus i have never been in a car that fast. I believe its pumping out a little over 500 horses. He gunned it turning right onto a highway and we slid a little before the front end straightened out, bobbed up and thats the point where i about crapped myself. My head was against its will when it slammed into the headrest. I was always a believer in forced induction but now i am a devout follower.

heh heh....thats about right. My dads got a GT500 SS 725 (Super Snake). Things got 613 rwhp! Holly crp does it fly! 2nd gear at 2k rpm, he floors it and your head is smashed against the seat and going 67 mph before he even reaches 4k rpm. Car as an est. 4.2 sec 0-60 but Shelby says it would be a lot quicker if there wasnt so much wheel spin in 1st. With slicks and a wider wheel like an 11" it shopuld stick and get to 60 in 3.3 sec. on street tires it should be around 3.6-3.7 sec.

Okay, compared to what that you've seen on these boards? Sounds pretty quick to me.
