You know, I was in love with the concept model. That thing just looks awesome. But for some reason, and Ford is notorious for this. The production models look like ****. They took away the sharp edges, the straight lines, and smoothed it all out so it would appear more "user friendly" It's gay, F$ck Ford in their ***...

At first I was not at all impressed with the appearence of the car. I really thought the front end lost the aggressive look of the mustang. My opinion changed when I actually saw the car in person at the auto show...I still feel that the front end needs a little more aggressive look to it, but the car grew on me and I think they did a pretty good job.

Plus, you can always look at it this way...At least Ford didn't go the GM route and take the names of respectable cars like the Malibu and Impala and slap them on little family sedans! I still want to know what the [sm=smiley35.gif] were they thinking on that one! [sm=badidea.gif] [sm=icon_beat.gif]

Heres the facts. The 2005 GT weighs 3425 and costs $26,900, ran 13.9 at 104, and 0-60 in 5.2. The car has an understated 300hp and is the fastest stock GT ever.

I think all they need is a cowl hood and some functional side scoops. I like it personally, and I hope the stories of the 06 Boss's are true, then I'll buy one, but I'm not going to step up to just a 2-3 year newer GT. I would do Cobra, but I thnk Boss is a little more retro and if they have the new 6.2 out for it, that bitch will be beast.

Those numbers sound a little high if you ask me.

Mach owners run CONSISTANT 13.1's in the 1/4...don't know where you got that number, Kev.

I was thinking about a 13.7 for the new '05 Mustang
