    My second 05 encounter: Saw the Cow (05 GT test mule)

    Ford's not trying that hard. Just look at the rear suspension. :p

    Anybody else's car this loud?!

    At least you have a muffler. My car sounds like a whistling tractor.

    Pace Car Ebay

    You're comparing a beautiful pace car to beat up SVOs. :stick: A similar SVO would sell for over $10k. A "zero mile" SVO will sell for $15,000+.

    i want a SVO

    Be patient, and willing to travel. I looked for mine for 18 months, and was lucky enough that it was only 4 hours away.

    svo rear spoiler

    That price is insane. First of all, it's used, and second, it will only work with the SVO lower wing. I suppose you could hack it together with an LX wing, but it would look stupid. I've actually thought about writing to a few companies to make repro wings. I think they would sell pretty...

    My second 05 encounter: Saw the Cow (05 GT test mule)

    I'm starting to wonder if Ford is making the preproduction model more visible to the public on purpose to add to the hype and anticipation. Obviously, cars need to be tested before their release, but I've never heard of any other American car with this many sightings before the release.

    If I do NOT cut and roatate the Intake

    I can't think of a situation where you'd *have* to rotate the intake, it's just better for some setups.

    saw a Bullitt yesterday

    Problem is, there's not many of us Mustang guys who prefer clean styling. Thankfully, the '05 doesn't have any tacky scoops/ducts/etc except the wing (that can be deleted), but I bet they are coming soon...

    So What happens on Feb. 28th?

    Sounds like it will just be Ford telling the general public something about the new Mustang that all of us here already know.

    Love the new design but..........

    I haven't read this entire thread, but apparently I haven't said it enough: it is difficult, if not impossible, to judge a vehicle's aerodynamics based on pictures of the car. Some of the most aerodynamic vehicles on the road are boxy looking sedans.

    Buying a mustang

    It depends on what you value the most. The overall performance of the STi is greater than that of the Cobra, and it also costs less. But if you care more about the hp number, the Cobra is a better value for you.

    Buying a mustang

    The person you are responding to owns a Mustang. He simply stated that he would get something better if he had the money (yes, there are better cars out there!).

    Funniest Thread Evar

    Yeah, I actually appreciate it being in this forum, since it's always a scavenger hunt to find one when I'm at a public computer.

    Rumor Mill 2006 Cobra

    No offense, but the last time I talked to a car dealership where anyone had a clue about ANYTHING was...uh.....um....well, I'll have to get back to you if I remember any such instance.

    2005 Mustang Seat Comfort

    No, everything else stays green. Having a rainbow-brite-mobile is pretty tacky IMO.

    Our motor only weights 10lbs lighter than the 5.0??

    Good call, but I could probably step inside the front of the engine compartment with my 2.3L, and I've never seen a 5.0 with that much room up front...

    Our motor only weights 10lbs lighter than the 5.0??

    I've heard that a carbed 302 with aluminum heads is lighter than a stock 2.3T. That's not really important since it's not a stock vs. stock comparison, and who wants to run a carb? But I thought it was interesting. Even if it's true, all the extra space in the front of my engine compartment...

    So what about the next cobras?

    The Cobra name isn't all that important to me, especially since it used to be little more than a sticker package. The name with real importance is SVT.

    The 05 is the best new car of the year

    The C6 also has a longer wheelbase than the C5, but is smaller overall. :nice:
