raptor or gt500

[trolls56]

Damn you Trolls, why did you have to go and post that? Now I have to start saving my pop cans to get one of those beasts.

I have been really feeling the new mustang fever last couple days even drove a new gt and a camaro yesterday. Well I was looking on stangsunited.com and VaporDude aka Raptor62 posted up that link on there. I wont be buying 2012 now. I'll be saving my pop cans too.

I have both and they are different types of fun. When I feel the need to drop the hammer on a ricer all I need to do is drive the GT500 and some tool will come looking for trouble.

The Raptor just begs to be taken off road and run hard. It does however get a lot of looks on the road as it is currently my DD.

Thanks Raptizzle and do you know anywhere that has an oxford white raptor with 4 doors and fully loaded in stock around our area? I've seen plenty of other colors but I'm having trouble finding a white one and waiting about 8 weeks for one to be made would be horrible hahaha

I have a loaded Silver Crew Cab available, but NO white 4-door crews.

I do have a White Super Cab due in next week.

Hahaha yeah in my opinion white looks the best but the Ford by my house has fully loaded silver, black, and orange.

While its no GT500, I am selling my Charger SRT8 and getting a Raptor. I look at it this way, to have fun in my car I need to break the law. In the Raptor, I can head off road at a lot of areas in east county San Diego. Or, just make a day or weekend of Ocatillo Wells and Anza Borrego an hour and a half a way. Then theres the utilitarian factor of the Raptor. I didn't realize how much I use a truck until I traded my Tacoma in six months ago for my wife's car.

Well put RallyBud - to have over 400hp in a vehicle, it's mostly illegal for the street. But if you can find a place to wheel, then you can use every ounce of power when needed.
Having a Raptor hasnt stopped me from tearing up the pavement now and then - but I try to be conservative some of the time.

X2, I find myself in far less situations where I feel like I'm going to get in trouble stretchin the Raptor out. The fun times in any of my mustangs always meant taking the risk.

The Raptor is much more practical, where as my stang's always had limits.

I love the sound of an engine so how loud and beasty does the raptor sound when starting up, reving, and taking off. I've seen videos but i'd rather hear it from people with experience

Its not bad for factory. Just extra loud enough to let you know its there, but not driving down the hwy irritating-loud. But with that said, it wasn't loud enough for me. I replaced mine with a Magnaflow.
