RE: 2008 Mustang
Hey PT Loser is going into it's eigth year with no significant changes: http://money.cnn.com/2006/06/20/Autos/pt_cruiser/
I can't really imagine what they could do to make this car any better, I think they've got lightning in a jar and any attempts to mess with the styling will only make it worse. The only excuse I can think of is to get a buzz going to compete with the Camaro/Challenger crowd. I just hope the "modern classic musclecar" thing doesn't get too overblown. Gas costs too much $$$ as it is and I don't want to replace the Hummer as the new poster boy for wastefulness.

I hpoe they don't go too far. I really don't feel like trading in my current stang. If we lose a little milage to performance then so be it. This is a performance car not a prius. If they would throw in a T-56 or something with six gears and the current motor I'd bet we could see close to 30-32 mpg on the hwy if its geared properly.

honestly. they can change the body style tommorow for all i care. That just makes our cars a little more desired.

I hope they dont change anything because the 05+ is still new on the streets and if they are changing anything they should change the engine first because living almost 9 or 10 years with a 3v v8 is not good... at least make it a 4v and add power for the next mustangs there should be 100 more HP because dont forget there is a muscle war going on which just started...
camaro is coming
challenger is coming
( heard trans am is coming)
let them add power for us to beat porsches like caymens and carerra's..
lets beat those m3 beemers ....
this is what should be done... power,looks,muscle <----- this is what i call mustang
