Base SS has everything, coolers, brembos, tires, etc.. I have driven a GT with PP and owned a 14.. The GT's brakes bite is better though. The SS will need a fluid change for better bite. |

Also, isn't the Mustang heavier with a more front heavy weight distribution? I think one of the terms that I remember reading in one of the comparisons (the one where they tackled The Tail of the Dragon) was: "Plow and wallow through the corners."

I have found that a good burnishing dramatically improves initial bite on the 5th gens...I imagine it'd be the same on gen 6. |

They may not bite like big ceramic carbon upgrade would be but I would imagine it will be good improvement. Those are racing fluids so it will help on the course. Burnishing? hmm.. may have to give that a try.. I know people have mainly used that technique to prevent brake fade. http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...urnishing.html |

Haha sorry, I really like the 1SS! On the VW forums we use the term "poverty spec" in reference to a base model. It's actually considered desirable; no sunroof, lighter weight, cloth seats, etc.

No I'm not gonna chill out, as a matter of fact I'm reporting WhyUMad1le to the moderators.
Hahaha All good, I knew he didn't mean it. The SS base or not is a performance bargain and is a hell of a car. |
