    What does everyone want to get?

    An 04 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution :banana: hehe, just kidding...sort of. I am going to wait and drive the 05 GT before I decide if I will get one :)

    Great article regarding initial build quality for the new '05

    So they have built 400 already? I thought they didnt start building them until Sept? Good article, thanks.

    new 3.5L V6

    Really? I didnt know they were working on V6 based on the Duratec engine, that is a pretty nice engine. This would explain the $7K gap in price from the base V6 to the GT then, if the base model starts at $18K and the GT starts at $25K, then this other V6 would probably fit right in around...

    05 GT as quick as 02 Z28's?

    I really do like the LS1 engine and might have considered the GTO if it wasn't so damn ugly, heavy and expensive. I am still going to test one today though to see what I will be up against when I try to race one with my new Mustang, I'll let you know how it drives.

    new 3.5L V6

    Hmmm? Do you mean the 05 V6 Mustang? They are going to be 4.0 not 3.5 and it appears they won't be out till sometime in Oct. Here is some infro on both the V6 and V8 models I came across specs

    05 vert caught on the street!

    I agree MP67, it is pretty damn ugly. To me it looks like a 90's Mustang with an 05 body kit thrown on it, hopefully the realy things look nicer than that.

    05 vert caught on the street!

    I am one of the new Mustang fans who LOVE the 05 design. I think every Mustang design since the early 70's has been fugly as hell, especially the 5.0's in the 80's. I really love this design because it reminds me of the 65-72 design and I loved the fastbacks too, can't wait to get one.

    Why did my dealer quote me 27,000 for 05GT? Anyone?

    I also find it odd that the V8 jumps up a good 7K from the V6, I don't think there should be that much of a gap. I say 3-4 or maybe 5K at the max but 7K? I don't think Ford really cares though because the majority of Mustangs sold are V6's, they say thats what pays the bills and allows them to...

    What does Japan think?

    ugghhh. When it comes down to American vs Japaneese racing...is it really any competition. If you take any of those classic muscle cars turned into hot rods pushing 500-600HP, they will eat any Japaneese car for breakfast. That race at the end of Fast and Furious 2 was retarded, that hot rod...

    Any 05 banners to use as sigs?

    Has anyone come across or created themselves banners of the 05 to put in signatures on message forums like this? I think like a closeup of the front end of the GT with something that says "It's coming-Fall 2005" or something like that would be cool. Anyone know of any?

    05 GT as quick as 02 Z28's?

    Thanks for the info, I thought I had heard they under-estimate the HP in sports cars for that reason. If it does come with close to 320 or so, I can't wait to see if we get some nifty after market toys to bump it up to 375-400HP!!

    05 GT as quick as 02 Z28's?

    Really? I thought I heard that they will carry 300Hp, at least thats what everyone is saying but it may be even higher? that would certainly rule.

    05 release date?

    hehe, so they will be out AFTER July? I can live with that. The lease on my F-150 isn't up till Jan 05 and I can use the extra time to get more payments behind me if it doesnt come out till later in the year.

    05 GT as quick as 02 Z28's?

    When I get my 05, it will be my first Mustang. I am so glad Ford has FINALLY offered more HP than the previous Mustang models because I always leaned towards the quicker Camaro. So now that Ford has hit 300HP with the Mustang, I am VERY anxious to drive one, do you think it will be as quick as...

    05 release date?

    hmmm? Maybe it depends on where you live. I am in Palm Springs, CA and my friend at the Ford dealer I have known for years and who I trust implicitly said he will have the first few in on July 8th.

    What is a VERT car?

    Sorry, I am new here but what is a VERT car and why do all the 05's caught on the street have that God awful leopard print and they are all white? Thanks.
