I just dont believe the terminators are gonna go down much. I honestly don't think its the young generation that are gonna buy the GT500's. I think its gonna be the baby boomers. Its a retro style but still new and that is appealing to them. I personally dont like them... and I wouldn't buy one even if it was at sticker price. 04 Snake all the way for me... my first choice is Black, but Sonic Blue and Silver are good as well.

So you're saying you wouldnt buy a gt500 if you had the money. Come on a pulley, chip, exhaust and intake and your at 600 something hp (atleast)

Yea... thats exactly what I'm sayin. No doubt they are gonna be good cars with lots of HP, the 5.4L helps with that... but I have not liked the body style since they started the 05 model. I think they are bulky, and are just fugly. The Shelby is better lookin than those, but no thanks. I'd rather have the terminator and have a nice 525-575HP car that I can drive easily on the streets. Maybe 600 if I felt ambitious.

God. Tell your boos I said you need a raise. Totally right about that older generatoin thing. I spite the new GT's. Becaue their flat out ugly IMO. But the old folk love them.

Maybe so... I'm just partial to the 04 style and I like the 4.6. If I wanna compete with the GT500's... I'll just save up enough later to get me a KB and work with that. And yea, tell my boss to give me a raise now!! Supposed to get one around Christmas but sooner the better lol.

I got frustrated with my GT and canned it for my Cobra.

If I could do it all over again, I would have never gotten my GT thinking I could get it to run 12's for less than 2 grand.
