    the competition

    well i agree, they are more expensive but its still in the same area performance wise so its going to be compared Of course take into consideration also that an srt-4 isnt too far behind the mustang in performance but cost less but i wouldnt take the sti, evo or srt-4 just cause they dont look...

    Who owns an 05 as their first Ford/Mustang?

    I havent got the 05 yet but im just waiting to save a bit more before i do buy it, probably by may. Anyways, I have always thought muscle cars were cool but never was really interested in owning one until the 05 gt came out. I actually saw some concept photos a while ago but didn't really look...

    the competition

    sorry, I'm still new to the boards and I didn't realize there was a seperate section for this. I thought we could talk about anything that has to do with the 05 mustang. Anyways, ya i agree the mustang may not be on par with the sti or evo performance wise but they look a whole lot better...

    Sorry for the new thread but besides the gto, mach 1 and previous gt model how do you guys think the mustang will compare to its japanese and euro counterparts. Like the rx-8, 350z, golf r32, evo 8, subura sti? I got suckered into buying sport compact magazine (cant say know to little kids...

    04 GT vs 05 GT

    now magazines are the ultimate authority on how fast a car is? :rolleyes: Just read what people have been getting after they had some time to get used to the car. From what I'm reading, the best stock time was 13.35 and the average time for most people is mid to high 13 second range How...

    Interesting '05 Mustang Project Car

    Thats going to be one fast car when they are done with it. If the engine already puts out 520 and they are going to mod it even more I can only imagine :drool:

    My Engine is Out of My Car...All of the threads

    Well I'm glad your happy. However, whoever said it is too expensive to replace a car is crazy. For one, the car does not cost even close to 25k to make. I don't know exactly but it's probably closer to 10k or less (keep in mind its massed produced, i dont want to hear the engine alone cost 4k...

    My Engine is Out of My Car...All of the threads

    Badsnke, You sound like your an employee of fords. Just because he has no legal recourse at this point does not make it right for ford to treat this situation so lax. They should have someone high up notify him of whats going on with his car, not just the dealer. If ford wants to find out...

    300HP? Thats It...Whats wrong with Ford

    oh ok cobraguy, thanks for telling me your reasoning. I can't really understand why people need more than 300 hp out of a base car. I understand the option thing but is it even feaseable to do it now a days? I mean i don't see why it's so hard to wait for a cobra or special edition mustang...

    300HP? Thats It...Whats wrong with Ford

    Correct me if I'm wrong (as I'm not trying to flame anyone) but didn't the 4.6L ford uses in the mustang have some bad problems too? Maybe not recently but like from the 90's? I'm not very ford savvy (yet) but i just want to know why you would make that comment about ls1's when i heard mustang...

    +30 HP with just a computer tune

    Well the argument i saw against that was that they can tell from the computer if there have been changes made to it since it was made or something along those lines. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

    Ya this a terrible situation for you. Sure you can wait for 30 days and see about using the lemon law but 1 month is a long time to be waiting on this type of bs. He did not buy a ford explorer, he bought a ford mustang and he should at least be driving one as the loaner. For one, as was...

    Really? I thought there was a thread about this and they said a tune would most likely void the warranty If its not true than that's even better!
