Won't make the same 0-60, but Lebanon Ford has been selling supercharged Mustangs with full warranties that will run 10s for about a decade now. Back in 2016, it was 727hp for $40k which would run the same 10.95 quarter mile as in that video. Nowadays, it's 810hp for $50k, which runs 10.7.

I'd say a little faster for a little more money is "close"

Is that MSRP? No dealership markup's?

Those are the prices they sell them for, actually below MSRP. Has been their thing for a long time. You can choose to pay more for a particular configuration, but their prices are totally fair. One of the things that was on my list a few years ago was a Whipple'd S550 (I think 775hp or so at the time) GT Premium convertible Performance Pack with pretty much every factory option and a few additional upgrades from the dealer (2000hp axles, billet oil pump gears, etc), which I think was looking to cost around $73k.

Wow, I didn't know you could buy them that cheap.....

Taking state incentives out of the mix for now you would only get it for 43K before tax and fees if you qualify for the Federal credit and you factor in the Tesla's estimated gas savings, but even at 55k it's an absolutely stellar deal IMO.

I'm already seeing new Model 3 Performance on the road, saw one today with a temp license plate, so looks like they are getting into the hands of owners

It's not street legal, though.

AMIRZA786

There's always a catch with 11s and below ICE 🤣. Plus needs 93 octane for optimal performance.

Model 3 Performance:

0-60 in 2.9 seconds
No need for specific fuels
No need for add-ons (Supercharger etc)
No need for special tires
No need for launch control
Street legal in all 50 states.... God willing 🤣

maybe not in California plus where only 91 is available.

Curious to see how fast it is from 60-130.

AMIRZA786

Are you talking about the Model 3 Performance or the Mustang? I would never know as the most I've ever gone is a little over a 100 while passing. The Mustang would win hands down in a 60 to 130 pull due to it's HP

Mike728

Not legal in IL, either.

AMIRZA786

It's probably not going to be street legal in any of the Western States, which follow strict emissions standards same as California. Here are others that have the same standards as California:

Depends on gearing.

BayeauxLex

Sorry. I was referring to the M3P 60-130 time.

Nothing wrong with driving at whatever speed you’re comfortable driving.

Well that blows.

I've got $20 that says it will pass IL emissions testing.
