I wonder if we have had any delivered to any of the Ford dealers here in Albuquerque yet.

rich1 · 03-24-2010, 04:38 PM

Hey.

.nice but... They have not even been released by Ford yet. Look at the plates,Michigan. This is a promotion car that was sent out to be seen..all the way to Flordia.

wonder if it's gonna out perform a stock mach 1, or be faster? what you guys think?

AdamRCannon · 03-24-2010, 04:44 PM

Looks like i might be making the 5 hour trip to Gainesville this weekend...lol

I am on the fence on these cars, love the power but it still has the S197 European styling that doesn't scream muscle car.

Sadly, they will be faster than a stock mach 1. No doubt about that.

AdamRCannon · 03-24-2010, 04:47 PM

Stock close to 100 more HP and the weight is close. I am guessing stock mid 12's?

At least we have rare cars that look sick. How do you think the people feel who bought 2010 GT's a few months ago when they were selling at MSRP.

PrISM · 03-24-2010, 05:03 PM

All of this just gives you extra motivation to make sure you get to 400hp. Ours still look better regardless.

You could always run a 200 shot on your motor. Then when you blow the motor. Drop one of those new 5.0s in there. Best of both worlds.

AdamRCannon · 03-24-2010, 05:15 PM

I have about $7K left from the sale of my truck after buying My Mach and i was planning on putting it down on the 2011 GT as a daily driver but I just can't get over the Euro styling. 2005 - UP is not a muscle car in my opinion it is a Lexus with an American V8. No offense to anybody out there who owns one, it is still a powerful machine but i think they went in the wrong direction. I am praying for a revival of the SN95 platform for the 2014, they don't have money or time to start from scratch so you never know, I just hope they don't stay with the S197 for the 50th Anniversary.

gbranton · 03-24-2010, 05:15 PM

I like the fact that he says it's "meener". Nothing better than a meen azzed car.

03BumbleBee · 03-24-2010, 05:46 PM

I think the new GT will be faster, so what! It's a Mustang not some rice burner. For 2003-04 our cars were not the fastest Mustang it was the Cobra, our Mach's were cool yesterday,today and will be tomorrow.
