    The $20K V8 thread

    You are right, my mistake, it is J. Mays. And in that movie he says, "...200 or 300 horsepower both starting under 20 grand..." about 50 seconds into that movie Dasgooch posted. He said it without trying to correct himself or stuttering, and I think he would know what he is talking about. By no...

    The $20K V8 thread

    Ummm, Bill Ford Jr. said it, it might be a mistake, but why wasn't there a correction? I'm sure somebody besides us, esp somebody from Ford would notice a mistake like that a make some sort of press release correcting that. :shrug: I'm not saying it's true, but who knows? And people will...

    Hahahaha, how true. Very sad, but true.

    05 Stang on TV last night

    I think it's that people can't figure out the meaning of a concept, maybe they get concept and production confused, like a sort of dyslexia?!? :rlaugh: You are telling me that custom hand built Mustang with a glass roof and a 2 seater with handmade gauges aren't cheap, and not very safe, or...

    I can understand if you don't like something, I mean, if we loved it like it was, there wouldn't be much of an aftermarket. But having several threads about not liking it, sheesh, it's pointless. And I could maybe understand if they were kinda relevant, but getting upset because the muffler is...

    SHELBY COBRA CONCEPT thread

    I LOVE it, arggg, and I thought the Mustang and Bronco would be enough, but now I've got to have it if they make one.

    Where did everyone learn this stuff??

    My grandfather, 2 uncles, great grandfather, and my stepdad are/used to be mechanics. They know a lot about engines, my stepdad and one of my uncles taught me about newer electronically controlled engines, and my grandfather taught me about carburated engines. A great plus is that they all...

    Concept vs. Production photos

    Awesome, thanks for correcting me, I hadn't seen that press release. *puts foot in mouth*

    Concept vs. Production photos

    I don't think they said it was going to be 3.55s, but more likely 3.27s.

    Why a dissapointment - I say the new Mustang is a winner!

    Exactly, and if you don't like the fog lamps, remove them, I'm sure the aftermarket or maybe even the dealer will remove them as an option, or just fabricate something.

    We understand that other cars have problems, but since this is a Mustang website, most of us are really familiar with our cars and their problems. And your metal to fiberglass problem, our Mustangs aren't made out of fiberglass, but a light weight steel, but there is a plastic compound on the...

    05 PRESS PICS AND MORE!!!!!!!!!

    How long has the battery been in the back of the engine bay? I don't think they were on the 99+ Mustangs? :shrug:

    Concept vs. Production photos

    You really can't expect the production to be just like the concept, there are things like cost, practicality, and safety requirements. If you expected the concept, I think you pretty much deserve to be let down. I loved the concept, and I love the production, from what I see, I'm going to very...

    I don't understand how enviromentalists are ruining anything for the "good" people? What does enviromentalists have to do with not having a rear fuel, it's about not catching on fire when you get hit from behind. I mean, sure, there have been many new legislations and stuff for emissions and...

    Concept vs. Production photos

    HA!, Yes, thank you for posting that, I was looking for that, I keep hearing how much overhang and how different the production is from the concept. That proves just how close the production was to the concept. I think this is the first time that a production model was so close to the concept...

    My trunk is friggin small too, luckily I got a steel reinforcement so I have a better chance incase of a rear end collision. I can only fit like 4 or 5 grocery bags along with my spare tire (hey, I get groceries in it too :nice:). Not much room.

    Will we see a 2005 Mach 1?

    I don't think it is the price thats the problem, but it's the emissions and such. Auto makers are under great pressure to make their cars faster for the consumer, but also get better gas mileage and don't mess up the enviroment for the government. I dunno, maybe if they had a contract with...

    what kinda engines are in normal cop cars.

    Yeah, that happened to me, all the cops know me, my aunt and uncle are sheriff deputies, and I was speeding about 90 in a 55, and a cop passed going the other way, but didn't turn around or anything, I thought I was off the hook when my aunt called and told me I was probably gonna get a ticket...

    Here's the New Mustang Lineup Ford should build!

    By regular models you mean what? The V6, GT, and maybe a GTS? And the rest are special orders? And I'm not sure if there will be a GT350 or GT500, it hasn't been confirmed, but maybe a Boss and/or a Mach 1 might be thrown in as special models. And I know I doubt there will be many different...

    Hmmm, I didn't know mine was vented, I'll have to check it out. And yeah, the gas tank really is the floor, man, I feel better about getting hit from behind all the time. :nonono: That rear fill really sucks, I once washed and waxed my car (right after a nice new coat of paint had been...
