From Road & Track (Dec 2008): Although the R/T's engine makes good power and the gearbox and clutch work with a well-oiled smoothness, the R/T hits 60 in an unimpressive 6.2 sec.

As if it couldn't get much worse - 14.5 sec @ 99.0 mph.

I'll bet she looks cute in the rearview mirror of my 2005 Mustang GT...(The Original, uninterupted Pony car). I just don't think that R/T has earned it's ($200 hood-to fender) stripes it so proudly sports just yet.
