So I've owned my 95 for around 2 years so far. Its my first car, and I love the fact that I have a V8. To me, there's no better sound than a V8 especially with some exhaust. Now with that said, I think V6's can sound good if the right exhaust is chosen. But to those of you who own a V6, what was the reasoning behind getting it and got a GT? I was told by my Dad that if I was getting a Mustang, Charger, Camaro etc.. only get a V8 or you'll never be happy no matter how good it looks or how fast it is, the sound will kill it for you. I have a prime example of this. Someone that I'm pretty close to bought a 2006 V6 about 5 years ago. Car came with ford racing dual axlebacks and some appearance mods. Over the years, full bolt ons, posi rear, 4.10 gears, hood, wing, wheels, grille, everything outside of a supercharger/turbo/procharger has been done to this car. He's changed his exhaust more times than probably the average 10 people do in their lifetime. Longtubes, going from y pipe to X, to H, to X, to h and back to X.. Electric exhaust cutouts.. Now it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out he's not happy with the way it sounds.. So I've suggested, SUGGESTED, saving up for a GT for the future. I got the response, anyone can buy a GT and it be fast blah blah. Than i replied, thats true but for the most part you'll love the car everytime you start it up and hear those eight cylinders fire. I've tried helping him, but you can only talk to the wall so much before going insane. He made it look phenominal, but the sound kills it. Driving around with open longtubes via electric cutouts or closed and driving around straight piped with longtubes and no cats seems idiotic to me. It honestly doesn't sound good at all, when he had the H pipe it sounded good. To me a V6 Mustang is a Mustang, same goes for a GT, or a Cobra. I know the V6's can be made to be very fast cars, and most sound good modded, but for myself I just can't ever own one. Nothing against them, just doesn't do anything for me. I have a lot of respect for V6's, there are a lot out there pushing a lot of power and are definitely some badass rides. OJ, monkey, Lilroush, have some sick six banger's. I don't hate on V6's at all, i have friends and other people that say why buy a six its pointless, why mod it. To me i could care less, you're driving a Mustang and i don't really care what you have under the hood. So to some V6 owners, do some of you have the same I bought a V6, anyone can buy a GT attitude? Again this isn't an arguement, bashing contest, or blank measuring contest. I want to hear people's views and opinions on the topic.
