Default Desperate Housewives Mustang - OUCH!

I'm not a fan of the show, but my wife said that Carl's red 2005 GT Mustang met with an unfortuneate fate on last nights show. I went online, and found video at ABC website for Desperate Housewive clip. You have to endure a Nissan video-mercial before the clip starts. It's not for the faint of heart, and major speculation should ensue as to whether or not it was his GT or a substitute V6.

I think they substituted a MoPar; thus the starting problems.

seriously though I was wondering the same thing. I think those were the v6 wheels....and I didn't see the GT badge on the split second view of the fender.

grrrr...... video had to load every 2 seconds........ everything else streams just fine. I guess god hates desperate housewives. the only thing that was really hard to watch was him trying to get a brand new car to start .... I swear, antarctic deisels start faster than that thing did.

In a previous episode it was a GT. On last nights episode it was a v6 with GT badges on the sides. I guess they thought no one would notice. I imagine it was cheaper for them to wreck a v6 than their GT =)

Agreed. But notice that the rocker panel was painted red, not black. And it definitely had GT badging behind the front tire (the result of some Hollywood magic, no doubt). A fairly good attempt to pass it off as a GT. I've seen worse on the road!

If you get past the destruction, it's a pretty funny clip.

They really did screw up the front of that stang. Hopefully it was a previously damaged stang like one totaled from the hurricanes in the south and not a brand new one. That would just be stupid!
