    I did it I sat behind the wheel of an 05

    No, seriously. Ford had a meeting with dealers in San Diego, CA today to sample and show the new 2005 Fords and I got to go with a friend who works at the dealer I lease my cars from. I wont waste time with much details because I am sure everyone will call :bs: on me anyways. Its fast, it sounds...

    Max power potential of the 05 GT?

    Good news. In the new 5.0 Mustang magazine, they said that the new GT engine should be fairly easy to mod and should respond very well to them. The only thing they could compare the old 2 valve GT engine to was the 3 valve engine out of the F-150. It is a pretty cool article.

    2005 Mustang or Subaru WRX STi

    I would stay away from the RX-8, have you driven one yet? I just test drove one latley and they are so damn slow. 0-60 in 6.4 and the 1/4 mile in the low 14's :notnice: No power at all in 1st and little in 2nd gear, its almost like it has turbo lag but there is no turbo, very weak car.

    Rebates on the 2005 Mustang?

    Rebate? Forget it, just pray they don't mark up the price. You will be doing VERY good to get one for MSRP.

    2005 Mustang or Subaru WRX STi

    As mentioned, you need to compare the STi with a Cobra, not a GT. Then you go get the Cobra. Stock, it is about .4 seconds quicker 0-60 and 1/4 mile and with some simple and relativley cheap bolt ons, you can get the Cobra up to 500 hp at the rear wheels and destroy just about anything in your...

    Max power potential of the 05 GT?

    Ok, lets see here. If the estimated times hold and it does 0-60 in 5.2 and the 1/4 mile in the high 13's, any chance of shaving a half second off those times without using a supercharger? I am not sure because the 03 Cobra runs 4.5 and 12.9 WITH a supercharger, but it may be possible to get the...

    Max power potential of the 05 GT?

    How many mods do you think we would be able to throw on these new engines? Could we get it up to 400 hp without having to drop a supercharger in it? I wonder if there will be some inexpensive "cams and headers" sets for it? Any guesses?

    Any ideas on doubling HP output of V6 or V8 yet?

    Double the hp? Can the engine handle 600 hp? Well, some bolt ons, a cams and header kit and a supercharger should pretty close to double the hp I would think.

    wtf is car and driver smoking

    Sounds about right to me, every estimate I have seen has it running 0-60 in 5.2-5.5 and the quarter in 13.9-14.2 GREAT!! Ford has finally got the Mustang to be just as quick as the Camaro Z28 was 11 years ago...they should be ashamed of the weak cars they come out with :notnice:

    Delivery dates?

    Correct me if I am wrong but I think dealers that have the largest inventory and sell more cars will get more 05's and probably get them faster, thats what I was told at my dealer and I have known this guy for years. They are the #1 selling Ford dealer in 3 counties out here in SoCal so Its...

    Please help..."04 Mach 1 Vs "05 GT

    Hmm? 5 hp difference is nothing. The best performance time I have seen on the Mach 1 is 0-60 in 5.2 and the quarter in 13.8 @ 102 mph. That is almost identical to the initial tests of the 05 GT so I dont get how you say the GT will not be able to take the Mach 1. My problem with the Mach is that...

    05 GT performance times

    Saw this on a automotive website. 0-60 in 5.2 and the quarter in 13.9 @ 105 mph sounds pretty good. After doing some checking it seems the GT's times are not too bad at all compared to its closest competition in price and performance, the 350Z and the G35. The average 0-60 times for the G35 was...

    Pre-Ordering....

    I was just told by my dealer today there is no sense in putting a deposit down and ordering one until the prices and options are released. Out here they are putting peoples names on a list and then calling them when the prices and options lists are released and then you can order one when you...
