    Nice Engine......!

    Forgive me for being older and niave but whats "drifting"? I dont have my son here to enlighten me. I dont quite get what the warped book shelf on the back of that car is for but it's a poor excuse for a wing IMO!! I like the tire tread racing stipes, they look kind of cool.

    A/X/Z plans...

    All I know is I ordered my 05 on Xplan. I get xplan from my company because they buy their fleet vehicles from Ford so all our employees get xplan. My 05 prices are MSRP 26k and my xplan price is 24k, which amounts to a little over invoice!! Thats whats on the paperwork I got with all the numbers.

    04 Cobra or 05 GT

    HA HA HA HA A good post!! Thats a good joke, you'd have to be brain dead to pay that much right now!!
