    yeah boy!!! 13.217 @ 103.31 *Auto*

    Time will tell I'm on record and could be wrong but if I pulled a mid 13 in this car I'd be happy. There's a lot of hype now wait until the smoke clears. Mags tend to tell you what you want to hear. If Bill aka Mustang92 can only pull a high 13 on this car I think that gives us a hint. I...

    another mach 1

    I hope not for a long time. We need a Boss or another car to drive. This car with the Bullitt was part of the "Living Legends" series and never meant to be mass produced. This new body style is going to throw off some awesome LE cars IMO. The 05 needs stripes to set it apart it's kind of a...

    yeah boy!!! 13.217 @ 103.31 *Auto*

    The traction is vastly superior IMO. It handle a little better than a Mach or Bullitt but it's not an IRS class car. The 03/04 Cobra handles much better. I drove this car for an hour and had it to 110mph and near 100 from the dig at least a half a dozen times (600 miles on car). I didn't...

    yeah boy!!! 13.217 @ 103.31 *Auto*

    Well I drove a 5 speed today and it reminds me of the power of my 04 Mach auto. It really hits the wall around 5500 rpm's. It just doesn't have the pull of the 4 valves. You can chirp 2nd but not 3rd, my Mach will always chirp 3rd and sometimes 4th. I would actually power shift 1st to 2nd on...

    How big is the trunk?

    I was able to get a "Product Information Book" that's a sales staff only book on my 1 hour drive today and all it says is it's 10.9 cubic feet. It is bigger than the past models and you have quite a bit of room if you don't get the shaker 1000 system .

    Bone stock goes 13.25 @ 102.85

    From what I've seen so far the first 3 gears are tight on these 5 speed auto's but they drop off in 4th. A vast improvement over the 4 speed auto, only time wil tell in the 1/4 but the 1/8 would be hard to beat with a manual. We need to keep in mind these cars are 5 speed autos and the...

    yeah boy!!! 13.217 @ 103.31 *Auto*

    If that's the case that's awesome! Now next week bring a video cam and post it. Everyone in America has one and many on the Internet have Honda's going 11's. Not saying BS yet but you not only need to post slips but show your run for many of us, we hear this all the time on the Internet...

    04 Cobra or 05 GT

    Quality made? This is over blown IMO, The reason some cars seem to be built better is because like the little Toyotas they don't have enough power to really stress the body and are driven by a more conservative type driver. My best friend had a Toyota pickup that he used on his rural mail...

    04 Cobra or 05 GT

    Didn't read most of the trash....... IMO 03/04 Cobra hands down. It's a car that is the best Fox ever built and less than 20,000 produced vs. a car that will have a 100 thousand on the steet in less than 2 years. I know the excitement of the 05 is hot right now but everyone in their...

    2005 GT FOR SALE...

    US $26,816.00 (Reserve not met), that says it all.....save your money and buy an 04 Cobra. That's a lot of money for the first few thousand of a car that will have more on the streets than an 96-04 Cobra combined and you can throw in the 2 years of the Mach too, all in the first year...JMO

    2005 stock dyno numbers 279rwhp 300TQ

    We just need to wait and see. I've never seen a car with the kind of HP claimed only do 99-102mph, AWD cars trap those speed with less HP at the wheels. This tells me it's traction and not engine JMO. As far as mags go, it's good when a cars are just coming out but trash after it's been out...

    2005 stock dyno numbers 279rwhp 300TQ

    I guess many of the first time Mustang buyers or those so excited the new car is out and I own one are missing the points so many of us long term Mustang buyers have. I've had 7 Mustangs, 2 were in the 60's, I'm not your first time buyer and this won't be my last if Ford treats me right...

    2005 stock dyno numbers 279rwhp 300TQ

    I guess some of you think all Mach people are "haters", no not really I've seen the GT so far get beat on all 3 threads without spectatular times. A GTO (modded), A mach 3 times on Brads site (maybe driver), and a street encounter on the Registry. None of these tell me much yet, much less one...

    2005 stock dyno numbers 279rwhp 300TQ

    Yes, but he doesn't post much on the Registry. He's in bussiness and this is his new product. He'll buy a new car so he can play with it and make money on the Aftermarket. I'd say it's a good chance theses cars are part of his business and it's a right off for him. There will be tons of...

    2005 stock dyno numbers 279rwhp 300TQ

    I've never seen a 5speed Mach only put down 269 at the RWhP unless it's an auto and they are usually around 255 to low 260's. The early 03's had poor tunes but that graph would be less than 5 % of any Mach you'd ever see, 275-289 is the range these cars run and don't drop power as fast as the...

    $3500 "market value adjustment

    Well some would pay the markup but it's more having an 05 on the lot and writing up orders than selling the only one they have. Here if they are MSRP they are selling within a few hours of hitting the lots. The dealership have to have something to bring in people. Like Ford of Tulsa and their...

    05's in Oklahoma City

    They have a 05 GT in Claremore and 2 6 cyl at Ford of Tulsa on 101st and Memorial. But the real star of the show there is the Ford GT for a mear $135k that seems cheap from what I've been reading.

    has anyone run their 05 yet?

    Brads site had a guy with a 5 speed run a Mach like 3 times, but didn't fair too well. Who knows if either car had good drivers. I'm waiting for these cars to hit the dyno and the track. The rest is just hype, hope, and speculation.
