It's still gonna be pretty sad when the Taurus SHO comes out. Nothing like having a Taurus thats faster than your beloved Mustang GT.

I'll smoke any stock SHO out there guaranteed. Now, given that the turbos are easy to push more boost out of and make them run in the low to mid 400hp range. THEN it would be a race. |
I'm just saying Ford's V8 is pretty weak compared to smaller engines out there. They did it right with the Cobra R. DOHC 5.4 390hp N/A. Why can't they just pop that into the GTs and leave the supercharged versions for the GT500. There are way too many V6s out there that out perform the 4.6 V8.

The Mustang's main role ATM is not to be the top dawg of them all. not with the failing economy. GM is shutting down 2,000 plants.....but yet still trying to stimulate the economy with gas-guzzling muscle cars. I don't see it lasting for long. The Volt is a joke, electric cars have been around for years. GM actually produced one in 2001! The Mustang is just trying to survive, no reason to do anything drastic. |

Because that would throw it strictly into the "performance car" class. No more dual-role as the family car/sports car. Plus, if people are already complaining about the price what would they say when they pay for a 5.4L? You'd be looking at a price close to MSRP Cobra's (stating that they keep the same nice interior and looks).

Pretty soon, we are going to be having a bunch of soccer moms hauling their kids around in Mustangs and the younger crowd who use to like Mustangs will be getting something else. Oh wait, thats already happening. I hardly see any younger person driving an 05+ around here. A lot of them are old dudes or women.

Where I live, I see more V6 Mustangs than anything else. Out of every 10 05-09 Mustangs I see, I'd say 8 of them are V6's and I've seen people of all ages driving them. When I see GT's, they're mostly driven by middle-aged people. I'll occasionally see someone around my age in one, but they're usually men. I've seen 2 older women (maybe in their 30's) driving stock GT's, but I'm the only chick I know of around here with a modded GT. :smokin:

We old farts are the ones that can afford the insurance on the GT's and the mods and to fix 'em when we screw 'em up.:D |
