RE: New GT-R Mustang
So this car is coming out for sure? Or is it just an idea?
I personally LOVE the idea of the 5.0 back in a car, with DOHC. 440 horses is A Lot!
But it looks way to much like a riced out little teenagers punk car.
It would look right if it said honda or something.
It's not ford's style.

RE: New GT-R Mustang
Look what happened to the PROBE?
They discontinued it. Why? Because they didn't sell enough.
The PROBE had NO chance at taking over Mustang.
CAN WE SAY JAP CRAP!
They were to SLOW!
Compare the 89' PROBE turbo to the 5.0.
NO CONTEST!!!!!!!1

RE: New GT-R Mustang
I wouldnt really dog that car until you've drivin one. I own an '89 mustang GT, & a '96 Probe GT. I could beat stock mustang GT's until around 50-60mph(thats mine, 93GT, 94GT, 96GT, 97GT). The probe ran a 9.7 in 1/8th stock. Could have also been the drivers too though. I like the probes looks & handling more than the mustang, but thats about it. The mustang has way better sound, RWD 
, & has more potential. You should go test drive one of the 93-97 5spds with a decent shape engine.

RE: New GT-R Mustang
Well what do you think is sitting next to my GT a 96 Probe GT p.o.s and NO it cannot take a GT nor has it ever had the ability to do so. And your not comparing apples to apples here either the new stangs by far manuver better than the 89s. compare a 96 stang GT to a 96 probe GT and you will know what im saying!!!

Hmmm... mabey your probe sucked. Plug wires might be crossed?. I managed to beat a '94, '97, '00 Mustang GT in my Probe, I guess you just have to know how to drive.

The '94 and '97 I can believe, but the '00 I have a hard time buying. I raced a '96 or so Probe about a month back in my Maxima and pulled about a car on him. So, if you beat the '00, they just couldn't drive.
