I was already wnating one before the Motor Trand article. Now I'm pissed. I bought my 03 brand new in January (I did get a good deal. $6500 under sticker). If I waited I could have picked one of these up. Now autos are gonna be able to smoke me. Man, I need some mods fast!

I wonder how many of those 2005 Mustangs on that carrier will go into warranty service for the cylinder head defect?

Shadows don't match

hate to bring up a CBS moment, but the shadows are wrong in the picture?

Note the red car in the center, the shadow is twice as wide as the car carrier frame. Remember that the sun is 93 million miles away, the only way a shadow can be twice as wide and still be in focus is if the unfocused light source is closer to the intermediate object (in case the trailers upper frame) as the frame is away from the car. Try with with a flashlight at home: Place a pen in front of a flashlight and aim at a wall. Vary the distances and see for yourself.

The shadows in the mountains appear to be at a different angle as well.


Maybe too many years looking at this in the military, but I smell a rat.

Those shadows look consistant with the curvature of the cars to me... the sun in that picture is in the top left, the same angle that it's leaving shadows on the mountains. You can't accurately tell the direction the mountain ridge is going in relation to the sun because of the shadows, which leads me to believe the shadows in the background and foreground are consistant, as are the ones on the carrier.

Besides, that kind of work would take hours to get it to look right, I don't see a pixel shift off-key on any one of those cars.

Yeah, I agree with that assessment. If that's a photochop, then whoever did it is one helluva digital artist.

Naaaa...they're big inflatable mock-ups of Mustangs like the Allies used during WWII to fool the Germans into thinking we had an army in England across from Calais. Ford just wants us to think they've started producing Mustangs.

How's that for a conspiracy theory?

That's not even funny. Take that comment back. If there is a conspiracy, I'll get a rice burner 350Z
