FordBuyer Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 it will be faster than the R/T Challenger but the Camaro will be faster.....and handle better im sorry 15hp is sad... Bill Brown Ford must have at least 6 bad ass Roush Mustang P-51 Mustangs sitting in lot with forged engine parts and running way over 400hp and good deals on each one. In fact, I think the hp numbers are over 500. The Mustang Roush 427 is even cheaper in price. If 2010 Mustang GT 0-60 time of 4.8 is too slow for you, there is a ton of alternatives when considering Mustang. There are over 500 Ford Dealers that carry Roush Mustangs.

Sixt9coug Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 the grille doesnt look bad at all with the black or gold. I like it overall and the new hips on the 1/4 panels are dead sexy. overall it looks like a tighter, meaner car. i like it. Now lets get that 5.0L in there so it can piss on some bowties.

Alex D. Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Can't wait to see, sit in, and feel that interior. It looks great. And how about those red leather seats? YEAH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford-150 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 how do you know it will handle better? i drive on the same platform that weighs more and has the FE2 suspension compared to the FE3 the Camaro SS my car handles better than a current Mustang GT in stock form....im confident the Camaro SS will handle better than the new GT BTW the Camaro is a 2010...

Well that's just asinine. This new mustang is more rigid and has revised suspension bits as well. You're starting to sound like a troll On another note, All Hail the baddest muscle car of the new millenium! :bowdown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Ford Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Those crappy renderings had me worried about the GT. Not any more; I want a Sonic Blue GT coupe. Can't wait to see it in person in January. Too bad that the obsolete 4.0 rolls on for another year; I was hoping that the V6 would debut with the new engine. Maybe the holdover is so it can get the same output increase from the 3.5 that the MKZ apparently is purportedly getting. Pics 65-80 look like a new ambient lighting system.

Moosetang Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Hot Dayum: When this car gets the 5L next year it will have chunks of chally and camaro in it's stool. Well that's just asinine. This new mustang is more rigid and has revised suspension bits as well. You're starting to sound like a troll Well, he is one of the 5 people in the US to actually buy a G8.

Michael Reynolds Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 it will be faster than the R/T Challenger but the Camaro will be faster.....and handle better im sorry 15hp is sad... The SRT8 is barely faster. I really wouldn't be so quick to judge the measly hp gains, until GM releases the Camaro for sale. If the Challenger is any indicator, it's probably going to be a piggly-son-of-a *****. Anyhow, I'd drive one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're starting to sound like a troll 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 Edited November 18, 2008 by Ford-150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BORG Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) It looks brilliant, and it's VERY well featured which makes the car very attractive to me. I love it! But I still don't like this crude chasis, give me a little more sophistication please! This design is much improved IMO, they have finally fixed that black-hole of a grille.

BORG Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Woah, thankfully they have made projector style headlamps available. Although I know people are not going to like the sat receiver on the trunk lid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Reynolds Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Am I the only person who actually finds the SRA an advantage to a lot of people buying these cars? 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.

Paul Selby Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Am I the only person who actually finds the SRA an advantage to a lot of people buying these cars? I'm with you, I've had 5 Mustangs since 1988 and enjoy the simplicity of a SRA. I hope it's just the pictures but the rear end looks horrible. I love the hood, it would look even better with a shaker. Here's hoping for a 5.0 Mach or Boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
