    Spoiler to be or not to be?

    Agreed - that's a nice looking duck tail. Flyingmachine - what kind of wheels are those? They look much better than the ones Ford is using. IMO 5 spoke just doesn't look good on the '05, but a 6 spoke (even with the space in the middle) look good.

    18's or 20's?

    Bonspeed, a wheel manufacturer, had an '05 at SEMA, so you should check their website as well as maybe americanracing.com, although I don't know for sure if they'll have exactly what you're looking for. For that matter, if anyone has seen a plain 18" or 17" six spoke wheel (bland, no extra...

    Should the Mustang have won Motor Trend's "Car of the Year"?

    Saw a 300 HEMI C with burgundy aftermarket paint, aftermarket chrome grille, bling bling chrome wheels and a swing-up door kit (keep in mind this is a 4 door sedan so that looked a little odd) a few weeks ago. The stock 300 HEMIs look nice but... a few years from now people won't even recall...

    what is the width of stock wheels

    Yeah, but we'd all be in a compact car forum if we cared much about that :D

    Mach 1 vs. '05 Mustang GT (from an owner's perspective)

    "Running numbers" is a car salesman's game. They try to get you to sit down with them so they can pull your credit and try to dig you towards buying right then and there. If you refuse, then they know you aren't a serious buyer at the moment and are therefore a possible future lead or, as...

    Hoods, Scoops, and Body Kits

    This site http://crossroadzdirect.com/ was posted a couple of days ago. It's a nice low-key body kit without too many holes and lights. I think they have hoods there, too. I've never heard of the company, though.

    Can

    Well, if you already have wheels that you like on your current car, unless I'm missing something then I don't see why you couldn't just swap them out when you trade in the old stang... doubt the dealership would care much about having an '03 with '05 wheels on it in the lot.

    More aftermarket parts

    Finally, a decent looking body kit. That and a duck tail would look nice.

    2005 FORD GT WHITE BLUE STRIPES

    Hmm too bad he probably set a $250,000 reserve. So much for supply and demand - jicki got greedy. Other dealerships around Dallas might get $250k or more but it won't happen on E-bay and it will come from a higher profile dealership than North Central Ford. 24 years in car sales. I...

    How much more supply will there be in the Spring?

    A Ford dealership near me will already go $500 below MSRP on the '05, so I don't think discounts will be an issue, especially because those '04s are going to be around for a LONG time... most dealerships that I know of are stuck with at the very least 10 each.

    06/07 Mustang SVT

    If that's the prototype, it's the only attractive body kit that I've seen for the '05. Pray they stick with it and don't add 50 random holes and foglamps.

    Engine and Trans MADE IN Germany and France?

    Ford Motor Company is Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Volvo, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Land Rover, and Mazda. Is this a surprise? One of the RX8 guys from Mazda apparently had a big hand in the '05 Mustang, too.

    Pics of 2005 convertable

    At least they didn't totally screw up the convertible version like Nissan did with the 350Z, which looks like a woman's sex toy with wheels.

    2005 Saleen Photochop

    Shortened rear end with duck tail looks great... If only the aftermarket companies (Roush, Saleen, Steeda, etc... pretty much everything at SEMA) had come closer to something like this. For that matter, if only Ford had said to h*ll with trunk space and designed the rear like this... I...

    new Roush pic....

    I read rumors on a Roush page I can't find anymore that Roush was offering 3 options where the 2nd set of fog lamps are on the front body kit - 1) fog lamps 2) extra air intakes 3) air intakes to cool down your brakes IMO when the fog lamps are intakes instead of fog lamps they look way...

    want to beat up the new car mgr

    All most dealerships care about is getting you to sign on the dotted line - most don't care at all about return customers. If I were you (assuming its possible) I would retract the deal and do the VIN assigning deal at another dealership and come back or call back the original dealership...

    Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

    If that's the price range you're working with you might as well replace the Accord with its sports luxury cousin, an Acura RSX type S. If you want to go a little higher than $25k, then you can throw in one of the lower-end versions of the Audi A4, a 325i BMW, a base or Enthusiast trim level...

    Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

    '05 GT Mustang is the obvious answer. Here are some pluses and minuses of some of the other vehicles though... The Titan looks nice, if you like absurdly huge pickups. If you want to go the pickup route, though, I would go with a single cab HEMI Dodge Ram - about the same price range as the...
