To the 05 redisgn haters:

So it won some award. Is that suppose to make me like it all of a sudden? And as sixstringthing said, every car has won some sort of award. Its like every restraunt you go into have those little plaques that say, "Best Whatever of 2003." Just because they have those doesn't mean I am going to continue to eat there if I think their food sucks.

I have a question for you, and for everyone that shares your disdain for the '05 Stang: Why the hell do you continue to lurk around this forum?

I mean, it made sense back in the day when everything surrounding the new car was just speculation. Back then, detractors like yourself could hold out hope that the car would be different than what the "leaked" information indicated. But now, we basically know as fact everything there is to know about the car that can be known without actually driving it.

Why lurk and mope around forums for cars you don't like? I despise Grand Ams, but then again, I don't hang out on their forums and whine to deaf ears. It's a waste of everyone's time. Either you like the car or you don't. Those who like it are here to talk about it and learn about it. I think I speak on behalf of all '05 enthusiasts when I say that I don't give a **** if you don't like the car. You're not going to change my opinion and I'm not going to change yours.

So what gives? Why lurk around if you have nothing positive to contribute? Nothing better to do? The car's design is a done deal. Millions love it. Your complaining will achieve absolutely nothing. I'm not trying to be a smart ass, I'm genuinely curious about what '05 haters hope to achieve in this forum.

As for your question, check my review of the car that I posted a couple of weeks back. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=499157&highlight=mustang+roundup I said I gave the car a B-, that's pretty far form being a "hater" as you said. My previous post was the make a point about how the award ment nothing to someone who didn't like the car. Maybe I should have worded it so it sounded more from a 3rd party point of view but I thought people would be smart enough to realize that what I was saying was a general fact and not something that was solely limited to myself. Why should lurkers bother you anyway? The definition of a lurker is someone who reads the forums but does not contribute. Obviously I do not fit that description since I post quite frequently. I rarely say anything bad about the '05. I bashed the Roush some when it's pictures came out but then again so did almost everyone else!

As for the reason I've been stopping in often right now is because Saleen is suppose to be releasing their version of it in the next couple of days and a few posters here have a talent for getting ahold of the pictures before they are offically released.

If that's how you feel then why do you come here?

Not a single production 2005 Mustang has shown up at a dealer, yet Ford already has over 50,000 orders for 2005 Mustangs.

Someone must like the '05 design.

Yeah and there are 2 million riced out Honda Civics out there so someone must like them.

Mattdee1 actually said it best, "You're not going to change my opinion and I'm not going to change yours." So quit trying to convert '05 Haters. Nothing you can say can chang their opinion.
