Anything happening this weekend? I'm bored and my folks are out of town.
EDIT: Forgot to mention. It sure is nice to find a thread full of old people. All those Tampa threads were making me feel old, but now I feel better. Thanks.

Live hard and die young. Sounds good.
Plus a midlife crisis at 20 sure would be fun.

Yeah, true that. I'm in my mid-life crisis right now. Couldn't afford a red vette with an automatic, so I got a mustang instead.

For those who are interested, the '05 Mustang is going to be debuted Jan 5th. So we don't have to wait too long into Jan to find out how ugly it's gonna be. 
I've already seen pictures of it in Automotive News and it doesn't look all that bad. It uses the DEW90 platforn, same as the T-Bird, and will be a much better riding and handling car than the ancient Fox based platform Ford currently uses. I haven't had an opportunity to get under the hood or chassis on a new T-Bird yet so I don't know how much room there will be for a V-8. Good chance it will be even tighter than it is now.

There have been sooooo many rumors surrounding the platform change, I'll just be glad when it's over. I knew they were switching to the DEW chassis, which as Glenn stated, should be great for handling!!!! Isn't that the same chassis as the Lincoln LS and Jaguar S-type, in addition to the T-bird? Are all of them going to be IRS? Now does anyone know for sure what powerplant is going to be in it? I originally heard they'd be using the 3.9L V8 from the T-bird/LS(the Jag uses a 4.2L DOHC). Then I've heard they were using the 4.6L? One would assume that from a cost stand point, the 3.9 is a drop in.
BTW, has anyone ever SEEN the 3.9L v8? I've had a brief glimpse under the hood of a new T-bird but the engine had this big plastic cover, hiding nearly the entire thing!

The way I look at it is like this. SVT set a precident this year with 390hp. Whatever engine is in the next Cobra wont have less. Short of a twin turbo, that pretty much means a bigger engine than 4.6
