Here's the New Mustang Lineup Ford should build!

[XtorT'r]

I don't think that would go over well in today's market. The people that are enamored with turboed 4s now days are the people that look down on Mustangs in general.
I mean who would buy it? The sports compact crowd i.e. the realm of the turboed 4 banger wouldn't give it another look as they ran off and bought a hoped up econobox(which would likely be cheaper) and the traditionalists likely wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole when several very capable v8 variants exist.

True.. true....

I want to see the feature less options for the 05 gt and or optional t56 and IRS.

Ford could make some extra money real fast by having optional 6 speed trannys and IRS. Why the hell should that be a cobra specific feature?

How about this, with an aluminum V10, the Mustang could take sales and repect away from the Viper. Unfortunately, it would need to cost as much as one. I really think Mustangs should have V8's. That's just the way it should be.

Besides the mega bump, this thread is interesting. It's a pretty clever linup, but all of the Boss Models being produced at the same time is just pointless.

I thought this thread had a deja-vu feel to it. It's THREE YEARS OLD!!!

That's because every once and a while we achieve time travel. But only backwards

OMG, here's my MSRP $28,950 <plunk> please hand over the keys to my new Mach 1!!!!

What? Ford will only give me a "Premium" Gt with a shaker 1000 for that price? BAH!

You didn't read the 1st paragraph.

I said that the different models would only be built for 2 years at a time and they would be rotated in production so not all of them would be built during the same model years.
