Re: for you mustang guys
 

being charter member #9 of your people, i would say spend your money on something more than a teenagers hot rod...

Re: for you mustang guys
 

That is what is great about Ford they find out what is wrong with the car and then they circle it :D

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Sean H I thought you were suppose to be one the water right now?

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I read the article on this in Car and Driver. It has tons of power but the gear box was sloppy and they thought the car was over powered for use. In the end they said it was just gut ripping power and once you learned how to drive it you should have all you can handle. Just keep it on the road please...or maybe off on a closed course race track. :D I like the looks of it thats for sure and if you can find one it will be a nice score.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I think you're making too much money and need to spread it out among your people.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

just checking the net while i grab a bite to eat.... boat goes to the ramp in the morning... :D :evilb: :drink:

Re: for you mustang guys
 

no new cars till after the new boat

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I agree!!

Grow up :evilb: :drink: :evilb: :drink:

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Yea what he said yutz, it still wont get you any tail!!!

Charter memebr 10 1/2...FOOYP (fraternal order of your people)

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Well, if you decide you want to buy one anyway, Id wait for a Saleen that was supercharged. If Im not mistaken, they arent making any that are until 07 or 08. (Someone correct me if Im wrong). It makes a world of difference with the car.

Just my .02, (course its may only be worth .01 since im not one of your peoples) :drink:

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Personally, I'd go after one of those new 06' 505 hp Z06 Vettes.

0 to 60 in 3.7
quarter mile times in the 11's

According to Chevrolet, 65K

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I thought you were a Viper man? :D

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Still am. My only complaint about the Vette, is you just see so many of them now. Not so with the Viper.

Besides, you can get a new model Viper up to over 600 horses with very little work....:drink:

That 06' Z06 Vette is still a hell of a deal though, no way around it.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

it is supercharged the one im looking at...

Re: for you mustang guys
 

so much for the new boat.... putz

Re: for you mustang guys
 

He has been... well the boat anyway. Sean has figured out how to drive the boat and 360 at the same time...remote control :evilb:

TRIM that sucker out!!!

Re: for you mustang guys
 

The new viper has a WOW factor of a pontoon boat.What a dissapointment in the looks department.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

YEP !!

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I too think they are "alot of fun for the buck"
2 weeks a go I ordered a Mustang GT. At the same time I got on 3 different dealers list (one dealer I am at the top) for the new Shelby Mustand due next summer.
It is just a cheap fun car. Post pics when you get it.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I love my 05 GT. I have had it since october.Drivin the wheels off the thing.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

I want a head turner..something a stranger stops to look at...somebody asks for a ride in...

-Enzo
-430 Modena
-360 Modena
-Testarossa
-Ferrari F-40 or f-50
-Gallardo

.............................

Back to earth..

-Shelby Mustang Gt
-Ford GT
-Porsche Carrera S
-Porsche boxster in guards red
-Maybe a BMW Z-4 even
-Lotu Elise'

But a Viper is last on the list and the 'vette is fine as long as you are not trying have something unique. Even the Z0-6 is a faster Corvette. To me that's about it. An aftermarket modified vehicle might work but expect to take a bath if and when you sell it.

I think the Carrera S or Turbo carrera S are great values...and make a "statement" but Ferrari and lambo rule.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Now this man knows what hes talking about :D

Re: for you mustang guys
 

A guy I work with owns a ford dealership and they have the Ford GT coming in in the next 2 weeks. I think its around 210k.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Our local dealer has had one for a few months. Talked to Harry the owner while waiting for my oil change and he says it isn't for sale. Just keeps it on the showroom floor to talk about.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

They keep getting cheaper as the buzz wears off. They used to sell for 250k. I think they recalled all of them, and they just went back into production.

Re: for you mustang guys
 

the supercharged saleen's are great the only draw back i have to owning a saleen is that saleen always discontinues his replacement parts and then the only way you can get them is through ebay!!!!!but the 89 conv and the 2004 conv both supercharged are great :evilb:

Re: for you mustang guys
 

Saw an 05 Mustang with a dealer installed shaker hood, looked just like the old 428 Cobra Jet shaker hood scoop! Cool, Cool, Cool!!!!

Can't wait to see the Boss 302, Mach I etc. special versions that are sure to come. Oh yeah, the Shelby too!

steczy just stick with your ford focus................ :evilb: :evilb: :evilb:
