Driven correctly even a auto V6 stang will take any bolt on civic ex. So the answer to your question it no

 

joke topic? mustangs are/were torque beasts...

 

Your kidding right?? The fugly spaceshuttle Si's were only low 16 second cars at best. Ive had the displeasure of being beaten by a V6 mustangthat had a half-assed cobra body kit and some bolt ons. 15.00. He was running the same times as some tool in his brand new S2gay

 

WTF is with these topics? ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

wait wait... what?

 

I can answer this with honor ... I have a 86, 90 and a 92 GT all V8 the only thing done to them is exhaust but every thing else is not touched.I took on a new civic si like 3 weeks ago with my 86 and blew his doors. He was all like shooting off his mouth on how the si was built to take on muscle cars and stuff but later he lost, he now wants to sell his wip..I tell you somthing the si is a beautiful car. He had a body kit and stuff but not enough motor

 

wait, what? So what cars do you not consider to be fugly, half-assed, or gay?

 

well for one, cobras. That particular mustang had a really half assed kit. No fogs, V6 rear bumper, V6 side skirts.

Those two hondas are just prime examples of garbage IMO

 

These two cars (v6 v8) and the civic are two very different cars.....so the ony way to compare them is when you count on turbos and upgrades in the equation.
And then you will come to the question which car is lighter (2300 lb-2738lb VS. 3400lb)and which car will LAST longer? The price second handtells it all.

 

i just read an article in the september issue of motor trend that could help with some facts

they state the the new mustangs, including the upcoming shelby gt convertible, 319hp v8, to the lowest trim automatic has a 0-60 time of 4.5-7.6 seconds

and then the civic from all the trims has 6.7-11.3 seconds

so if you take the new civic si coupe and take it against the new mustang v-6 automatic, then the civic with a time of 6.7 will beat the 7.6 for the mustang, but i'm concluding that generally the mustang will win with different trims seeing the time ranges

but like gogom said, price is always a factor where the base price for the civics are 15600-23500 while the mustangs are 19995-48800

so if you look at the price, you can use the extra money with buying a civic to mod it faster than a stock mustang, but here you're asking for stock vs stock so ignore me if you want
