    04 Cobra or 04 GTO?

    Wow, Was reading the July Issue of Road and Track ... thought about this old topic. Strange the difference of opinions between Cobra Owners and GTO owners. Thought R&T may be the deciding vote. They gave the Cobra the slight nod on performance, then gave the GTO the nod on other's (like Driving...

    Those of you who pre ordered

    May have to wait a few months to get below MSRP. If you want to be first in line ...the dealers will be looking for some cash. Few months from now when the volume picks up, expect same dealers will be happy to get MSRP. Its all supply and demand, and right not the supply is zero.

    Just saw a fleet of 10 2005 GT's

    OK, I put SARCASM in the title of the post for a reason. SHould have probably defined the word also .. and used small words to do it. Anyway, Point I was going for was that just because someone doesn't have a picture of something, doesnt mean it didn't happen. Did the guy see 10 05's at a donut...

    Alligators in Florida? (Warning - Sarcasm Ahead) I think people from the state of Florida lie about driving around and seeing alligators near the side of the road. I've never seen an alligator in Michigan .... so I dont believe they see them down there either. And if I saw one in Michigan ...

    Anyone pre-order an 05 V6?

    Dealer order info said more like 32% V8's. Expect the pre-orders and early cars to run higher V8's, but long term they're saying 2/3 of 05 stangs will be the lobotimized V6's.

    My brother used to work for Auto supplier ... not uncommon to have 4 to 10 vehicles go out on an engineering evaluation drive ... sometimes with competitive vehicles, sometimes by themselves. And oh yeah, they do use public roads and stop at fast food locations for driver changes and coffee...

    Wow... Saw a 2005 Mustang Burn to the ground today.....

    If a false post .... really not cool. If a true post ... not buying the "this is what you build pre-production vehicles for" stuff. Nobody builds pre-production units to fail, not in this manner. Build pre-production units to not fail, to find any weak links (which should be nearly 0). An...

    Poll: Age of the mustang buyer

    No problem .. and is generating some responces ... Just seen in the real world people taking liberties with "polls". Kinda like going standing outside a bowling alley and asking what percentage of people like to Bowl .... no suprise, over 98%. Or the less subtle, what percentage of those...

    Poll: Age of the mustang buyer

    Hmmm interseting question .... However .... Since your sampling on an enthusiasts web site, expect your getting a non-random subset sample of the true purchasers which will probably biase your findings. Older, younger, more divient ... I dont know, but it ain't the random sampling method they...

    Come on every one!!!!!! E-MAIL FORD

    Couple of points: First ... As a stock holder in major corporations, I hope they always take the customer's opinion into mind when making decisions. I just hope they do it up front, in the planning process, and do not change their position / strategy based on a few (or even hundreds) of emails...

    Predictions for sepcial editions.

    Performance Editions Coming?? Not sure, but they got to do something in late 05 / early 06. They got to. You could build nothing but V6 edition for a few years, and the brand will sell out because, well, cause its a mustang with droves of loyal followers and a fair number of mindless hand...

    Insurance rates?

    Insurance Rates ... Hate it when people post "My insurance rate for the new car is $####". Without knowing other variables, the information is basically useless. Large factors in insurance are type of coverage, levels of deductable/coverage, DRIVING RECORD, LOCATION, and then type of car...

    Who sets the timing?? Oh yeah, Ford Execs who spent months on a launch strategy, including figuring the best time to feed dealers info, take orders, release pricing .... and probably spending millions with "agency partners" to determine the strategy ..... but they will walk away from that plan...
