The big question, how does it drive?
Click to expand...

OUTSTANDING... But then again my only other mustang experience is my 02. Never driven the 05-09

For the quarter panel windows... I'm about 90% sure they are the same. I parked next to an 05-09 a couple days ago and they look the same but am not positive.

The 2010 quarter windows have changed. I contacted silverhorse racing because I wanted their louvers for my GT500 when it comes in, but I was told that they are slightly different. I had them on my 05 GT and loved em.

That sucks. I wanted to run Parnelli Jones Saleen c-pillar covers on a 2010+.

Congrats on the new ride?

How many revs at 60 mph in 5th gear with the 3.73's? If I buy one of these cars I'd prefer the performance of the 3.73 but don't want a real busy engine at 70mph cruise speed.

He said they are planning on making them for the 2010's but it will probably take awhile to engineer and re-tool their equipment. I know im buying a set the minute they become available.

Hell yeah, thank god they changed it. I honestly didn't like them at all. This one is sooo much more mean looking and classy. I'm thinking 2012 Mustang for my self graduation present...

Nice. Looks very similar to mine but I got different wheels. I think most of the other options are the same. Congrats!!

Haven't paid attention at 60 but at 70mph in 5th gear I'm running right at 2K RPMS maybe 2100-2200 tops.

Sweet ride. I love the rear-end on the 2010's. That was the one thing I disliked about the 05-09's. The rounded read didn't seem to fit with the rest of the car.

You know...after looking at it a few times, I think the thing that puts me off about the rear end isn't the style of the lights themselves, but the huge amount of space between the rear light panel and the edge of the lowe bumper. It makes the rear end look kind of long and frumpy. Not 100% sure if I hate it yet, but not 100% sure that I like it either?
