Description: First up is the Audi R8 V10 with Stage 2 tuning. Cranking out 600hp from its 5.2-liter V10, the California definitely has its hands full. The second challenger, a 520hp Ford Mustang GT, provides ample...

I never said THIS mustang was stock. The mustang in the video is a tuned 4.6L year 2005-2009. I said put the Ferrari up against a stock 2012 mustang @ 512hp 1/4 mile mid 12s
it clearly says the mustang is not stock...520 HP....never seen that one on my local lot
Stock mustang gt? Not too sure about that one. But they put the stock Ferrari against a modded 800 hp r8 v10? Doesn't make to much sense
Even with elevation differences I'd think that the r8 would still have better numbers, and the only reason why the mustang loss is because it's less aerodynamic thus reducing its top end speed
That's just a 4.6 mustang. Put a stock 2012 5.0 GT up against it. Mid 12's 1/4 mile, 412hp stock. $40,000 Mustang vs. $400,000 Ferrari. I'll take one Mustang please. Plus My dads stock normally aspirated 2012 Boss 302 will do an 11.7 on slicks.
Why are they advertising this as R8 vs Ferrari vs Ford when the R8 was a Stage 2 tune? Due to this, I have to give bigger props to the GT! Not only was it not tuned but it was composed throughout the race. Not bad for a 35K car!
sorry but that Ferrari looks terrible going down the track...so soft. I'd take the Audi for sure.
But seriously--if a guy wants a ferrari, but doesn't want a California, he's going to have to have more dough... And most people can't even afford a new Cali! As stated below, there's a reason why it's "softer"--it's cheaper and it's a GT car.
Some car reviewers called it the "girl" Ferrari--too bad stats prove that more men buy it. I think it looks gorgeous--but to some, curvy and voluptuous means feminine. Ok--more reason for a dude to buy it. Lol!
Colby you got to think of elevation too high areas can add about 1 second to the quarter mile time
My stock 02 Corvette only has 350hp, and I run the 1/4 mile faster than that Ferrari. My last run was 12.9 seconds. It was running 13.4 with 420hp.
haha the stang lost to the girl ferrari guess its not completely useless after all
I don't believe the numbers they say for anything, honestly, a 600hp 500+ftlbs of torque AWD R8 does a 12.8 second 1/4 mile. I call complete bull on that, it should be doing 10s
Say what you want but the Stang cost less then half the money of the other two cars & with a little tuning it was able to beat it in the quarter mile
The mustang had the Ferrari in the 1/4. The Ferrari has more top end. Cost comparison, the mustang fits the budget and kept up with the Ferrari. Which can you REALLY afford?
And the Cali beats both other cars, even though they were tuned! I really like the California, it certainly fills its purpose as a GT car. As much as I like the r8, I'd take the Ferrari without a doubt,
ing, I'd take it over the California in a heart beat, let alone the mustang
Good point, Read. It's their most pedestrian offering. Still have to root for the Mustang. It's also true that the Ferrari was bone stock while the others were tuned cars.
Who's sole goal is to increase sales and compete with higher end Mercedes and BMW's for a spot in the garages of businessmen who may not be performance crazy.
Ehh I'm not sure about that. I'm a 'stang owner and lover so naturally I was pulling for the 'stang. But anyone who knows Ferrari, knows that the California is not exactly Ferrari's flagship of performance. It's a super soft GT from Marenello
I love the GT500, and it would be a close race, but the aerodynamics and weight of the 458 gives it a slight advantage on this one, would still be a wicked race tho
Not the new GT500 I don't think. Would be an interesting race for sure. Can't argue with 660hp.
@Tom: this gen mustang uses a unibody frame, the 79' still used a body on frame, get your facts straight before posting...
I really love that mustangs still use a solid rear end.... its the most "muscley" muscle car because of that IMO, and if ya know how to drive a live rear axle its actually pretty fast
Tom you must of heard that on a Chevy forum. It's a brand new platform that was made for the 5th gen Stang and has only been used for it
well thats very lazy of them like aston and porsche is with their designs
That guy in the background holding his hands on his head is all like please don't win mustang hahahahhahah xD
Simple question:why not an audi v8?
