Ford never should have gone away from the Terminator style (03/04) Cobra. It was powerful, still fairly light, and had great potential for handling. Now the car is just another product of more power, but more weight.
STI ftw
This is a discussion on Shelby GT vs 08 STI within the Comparison: WRX vs World forums, part of the Community - Meet other Enthusiasts category; My Evo does fine on the drag strip, but the awd and better weight distribution just doesn't compare to rwd ...

As I said earlier, I miss the S/C Cobra - I drove an '03 one a buddy owned, and it was quite quick and a blast to do donuts in haha

It was never a fair test for the Mustang, the Mustang was doomed from the word go. If I wanted to buy a good drag car with relatively cheap modding, well I wouldn't by a Mustang anyways, but someone would. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who has been noticing the recent trend of the Big 3 to put non-functioning crap on their cars. They're getting to be as bad as your average vinyll happy ricer.
