    Shelby GT500 vs. '06 Vette Z06?? A decent comparison?

    Why do people write about the Z06 and $40k in the same thread? The Z06 will list for over $65k. So the bang for the buck equation will favor the price of the Shelby. We don't know about the performance yet but the vette will certainly have a 500 lb weight advantage. We should all be soooo...

    Brits Review Mustang GT

    You should read his review on fishing!! I'd love to take him out in a Triton with a 250 Yammie on the back. I'd make him cry like a baby.

    Sorrily sold my Mustang

    A huge market for large front-drive coupes? You're kidding, right? I'm really glad you like your car but don't make yourself look silly.

    Sorrily sold my Mustang

    You certainly don't have to worry about seeing too many ETC's. They didn't sell worth crap when they were new and there aren't many still running 7 years later!!!

    Fusion POWER!

    The Lincoln version of the Fusion (Zephyr) will have an optional 3.5 liter V6 of approx. 250 hp in 2007. That motor might be a replacement candidate for the 4.0 in the Mustang but there are always considerations we don't think about. If the Explorer is still using the 4.0 we will probably see...

    Fusion POWER!

    The 4-banger comes with a stick. I don't know why the 6 doesn't, maybe they think the zoom zoom folks will go to Mazda.

    Fusion POWER!

    The Fusion is estimated at 3300 lbs. The Fusion is not meant to compete with the Mustang but with the Camry, Accord and Altima.

    Fusion POWER!

    The SHO was a great motor. I had two of 'em and loved them both. The one advantage of the newer motor in the Fusion is that it will run on 87 octane versus 91 in the SHO. In the Fusion vs. V6 Mustang comparison it is worth noting that the Fusion will have a 6-speed auto vs. the 5 speed in...

    $5/gallon

    Sorry dude, but the U.S. consumes 20.7 million barrels of oil per day, not per month. http://www.eia.doe.gov/neic/quickfacts/quickoil.html

    $5/gallon

    Caracas is in Venezuela. The reason their gas is so cheap is because it is subsidized by their government. I doubt that you want to replace your standard of living with their's just to get 16 cent gas.

    2nd month of soft Mustang sales

    Monthly sales numbers are the number of vehicles purchased by dealers and do not reflect retail sales unless they go directly to fleet customers such as Hertz.

    How fast are you???

    The answer is easy. Ford doesn't need to worry about whether the Mustang can outrun a car that hasn't been in production for several years because GM couldn't even sell 100,000 annually. There is a lot more involved in designing a car people will want then how fast it goes 0-60 or 0-100. And...

    So, how does the Charger compare...

    Just got my August Car and Driver. They tested a Charger and it was a bit faster than any of the 300's they had tested. 0-60 in 5.6 and the 1/4 in 14.2 at 101 mph. Good brakes, decent price, awfully cheap interior pieces and just bad styling. Bottom line? If your spouse says a Mustang in...

    SRT-4 can wax a '05 Mustang GT?

    Unfortunately for the SRT-4 owner, its still a Neon and the Neon not only has poor build quality its one of the most dangerous cars to be driving in the event of an accident. Drive 'em with care.

    Retro Styling or is it just American Styling?

    Heritage styling would be more accurate.

    Mustang sales up 47% from last May

    The Mustang alone can't make up the lack of interest in the Explorer, Expedition, Mountaineer, etc., etc.
