GT500 Owners

What is is with the GT500 people on this site? I have a Mustang and I love it. But I also like and respect the Camaro, as well as the Challenger. There seems to be a ton of GT500 people here defending it against the Z-28 and Corvette. Why? Don't they have their own site? They are all nice cars and go fast. I wish they would get over theirselves.

i dont see the problem. There isnt a Z28 and this isnt a Corvette forum. I think the GT500 owners add a lil more variety and spice to this board IMO

I agree. I don't mind some of the remarks but most of those guys are quick to respond if any Camaro member says anything about the Camaro being better in any area or the Camaro beat a Mustang and they get on their high horse and say the Camaro guy doesn't know what he is talking about and making excuses for the Ford guy. It is really very annoying!!!

Because there are alot of people on this site comparing it to the Z28 and Corvette. Its part of the game.

Dont start anything, there wont BE anything.

The Z28 board is filled with "LOLZ GT500=dead, Z28 is king!" posts and "The GT500 is no match for the ZR1!"..

Dont act like its all the dirty rotten scoundrel GT500 owners are picking fights against the innocent, driven snow Z28 and Corvette fans.

I think discussing other cars is great. It's when someone takes a potshot at the SS, or the GT500 and then it gets ugly and brings out the worst in everyone including myself.

It's all in good fun for the most part. It's a well known fact that the SS is an awesome piece of machinery. Some do tend to go a little overboard sometimes, myself included. I've been a lot better about it though. I am a member of Austin Area Stangs, the website is austinareastangs.com. I know the folks over there would like to shoot the breeze with some Camaro owners.

I wish more people would see it that way. Some are downright religious zealots about it, on both sides. Regardless of which side you're on, according to "the other side" owners, they don't have any facts and so on and so forth. That gets so tiring.

Rivalry is good as long as it's done above board without cheap shots. It is a GREAT time to own either a Mustang/Challenger/Camaro because fans of any or all are getting more of what they want. If you can't agree on that, then you have a crayon in your brain.

If this is new to you, you must not be on many car forums.

I am pretty sure as a GT500 owner and a member here I do not fall into this "bucket".
