Paul Selby Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Boss is unlikely. But the Mach 1 is a certainty. I'll be counting the day's for the new Mach. I think this new Mustang will look even better with a Mach package than the '03-'04 Mach's did. That new hood is ready for a shaker. I just hope the rear end looks better in person.

Versa-Tech Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I'll be counting the day's for the new Mach. I think this new Mustang will look even better with a Mach package than the '03-'04 Mach's did. That new hood is ready for a shaker. I just hope the rear end looks better in person. I'm guessing that the Mach will get a different hood to better compliment the shaker along with louvers for all windows, side scoops, and of course it's own distinctive rims. I'm stumped as to what they will do with it engine wise. Maybe variable cam timing and direct injection upgrades for the 5.0L? In any case. All hail the baddest musclecar of the new millennium :bowdown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomServo92 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 So the V6 gets duals like the GT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvrsvt Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 No. My issues with the current Mustang's suspension are the overly soft springs and all season tires from the factory. Otherwise the car works for me. Those all season tires are great if your car is a daily driver like mine. I wouldn't mind high performance tires if I had it as a weekend only car...maybe in a couple years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el norte Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 so i guess im a troll now that im pissed that one of my most favorite cars is going to get whopped by a god damn Camaro for the what time? its time for the Mustang to step up and dig the hole for the Camaro again....i could careless what exterior crap they did....the 05 was fine they could have gotten 330hp, i would have accepted that Buy a shelby and quit crying!!!

Mehh, I guess if you have to deal with snow and such I can see where you are coming from, that and the short life span that most summer tires are known for. Still I'd like to see a more aggressive tire package for the Mustang, and from what I've read it appears that Ford will offer it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02MustangGT Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 No dual exhaust on the V6, at least from the pictures that I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the much better pictures, they do look better then the horrible ones from the Ford site (not to mention the horrible computer renditions). The rear quarters really make this car look tough. The rear end looks like something off of an Acura though. Not sold on it, but liking it better then last night.

Otherwise the car works for me. springs are fine. I put tokico hp struts and shocks on my 06 gt and what a world of difference in ride and handling definitely recommend them. also keeps the stock ride height.

timmm55 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 My observations: Interior Plus: Home run! Looks like they covered all the bases where the 05-09 lacked. Minus: 0 that I can see. Exterior Plus: Hip, HIPs Horray! :happy feet: Sequential tail lights (but I guess we won't be seeing a Cougar anytime soon ) Minus: Why is the "C" scoop disappearing yet again (ala 71-73 and 79-93) Not good IMHO (also not part of the monthly reveal....telling?) My biggest gripe...see photoshop http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index...mp;#entry428759! A shaker on top of the new stepped hood won't work (IMHO) The rest is OK, but not better than the 05-09. It's like the 58 Chevy vs the 57 Chevy. New is not always better. Suspension: Plus It's smoother and handles better. Minus Where's the IRS? It's 2010....marketing research must have worked overtime to rationalize NOT having IRS. Engine Plus 5% increase????? Minus 4.0 has got to go. 5.0 has to get here ASAP. Conclusion: If I was going to buy one I wait till the new powertrains arrive....and add a C scoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomServo92 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 No dual exhaust on the V6, at least from the pictures that I've seen. There was one pic of V6 vert that looked like it had duals but it was hard to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Versa-Tech Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 are there any pics of the shelby out yet? No, but maybe there will be tonight. Tune into speed at 10:00 EST for the official reveal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Why is the "C" scoop disappearing yet again (ala 71-73 and 79-93) Scoop's as much there as it was in '05. The crease at the top is new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versa-Tech Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Scoop's as much there as it was in '05. The crease at the top is new. I think it's actually more defined than on the '05 model. The crease that extends back from the front wheel-well is far sharper in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RONM Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Great job by Ford,it is the best looking mustang ever inside and out. Took all the best elements from 1968 and 1969 and put them together in a well proportioned,cohesive,taut,aggresive modern interpretation. Would like to hear more details on any suspension chassis tweaks, yeah the powertrain is not where it could or debatedly should be(it still will be a quick mother)but I have had time to digest that as I have known since last years dealer meeting that the major engine improvements are for 2011.From pictures on Left Lane news it looks like the rockers light up the word mustang,real cool!

chiefstang Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Boss is unlikely. But the Mach 1 is a certainty. You don't think that with two Boss engines debuting next year, that a limited edition Boss Mustang doesn't make sense this year? Sorry, I gotta side with the Boss this year, and the Mach down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
