    Ford says they will have incentives on the 2005's...

    Amazing that they feel they need to do this right from the start. You'd think they would wait at least 6 months to a year. Click here Mark

    How many miles you have?

    If you like your GT, why only enjoy it on the weekend? Does driving an ill handling truck during the week make the GT feel better on the weekend? Mark

    Be the First to Own 2005 Seats...

    These seats look like unsupportive pieces of garbage like the ones in my 2003 GT. I drove my mom's SVT Focus this weekend and I got reminded how much better those seats are than my GT's. Mark

    Flame Thrower Kit... Need help!

    You "doubt" you will blow up the tank? :nonono: Sounds like it's worth trying! :D If you blow up your car or burn someone up with your flamethrower, please let everyone know so no one else tries it! This has all the earmarks of a potential Darwin Award. Mark

    Ward's article on 05 Mustang Platform Development

    Ward's article on 05 Mustang Platform Development

    I don't see first year production being above 200,000 units. Ford's job 1 on the Mustang is September 7 (according to BON) and that means they won't hit the dealers in volume until November. That's a late start. Also, production on new model Fords has been pretty slow at start up to maintain...

    4.6 3v cutaway

    The engine looks tall and heavy. I would be interesting to see if next to a LS1 or old 5.0 OHV motor. Mark

    Trading in for 05: The ugly topic of resale value

    I tend to agree with Ron on this one. You can buy a brand new 2004 Mustang GT/Mach 1 for $8000 of MSRP all over where I live. When I bought mine last year, the going rate was $5,000 off MSRP for GTs only. Needless to say, I timed it wrong and if I waited about 6-8 months, I could have gotten...

    The $20K V8 thread

    It simply makes no sense for Ford to bring out a V8 Mustang for under $20K in 2005. They do not need to do something like this for years. Demand in 2005 will be high for the new Mustang. Demand in 2006 will be high as well and the new Cobra and convertible will come out to add excitement and...

    GOT TO SIT IN IT... and TAKE PICS!

    Did you try the back seats? Are they any better? I have three rapidly growing kids who barely fit in the back of my 2003 now. I'm hoping the new Mustang will be better for them. Mark

    Nice BIG scan. Thanks. I like it. I like it a lot! I look forward to the SVT version. Independent rear suspension and hopefully stability control will be included in that version. Mark

    2005 interior pic...

    Saw this on BON. Here's a link the thread with it. http://warnerrobert.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=002011 Too much chrome and brush aluminum for me. I understand there will be two trim levels, I'm guessing this is the upscale one. I love the exterior, but I will need to...

    I like it. :nice: The new GT looks clean and beefy looking. No fake hood or side scoops are good news in my book! :nice: The specs look promising. The rear end even looks good to me. The earlier pictures/photoshops really helped me get used to the shape. I think Ford hit a home run...

    Here It Is: Uncamouflaged!

    These renderings from people are great. Keep them coming please! I hope Ford makes the fake hood and side scoops optional. There are a lot of people, including myself, turned off by non-functional plastic scoops. I know there are a lot of people that think tacking on large spoilers and...

    2005 Mustang on display

    Uhh do you really think Ford would unveil the 2005 Mustang at some dealership? Mark

    The new picture all cleaned up...

    IMO, if the hood and side scoops are not functional, I don't want them. The one thing about my 2003 GT I don't like are the fake and completely non-functional scoops. Now if they add them and they do something - anything - for cooling/whatever, I'm fine with it. There may be a long...
