So... Heres a good link for info: http://www.stangnet.com/2005fordmustang/index.html

The GT is still a 4.6 liter, but with 24-valves. 300hp.

The V6 is a 4.0l, with 220hp.

Both have at best a 5-speed manual, or 5-speed automatic.

Hmm... anyone else thinking about getting it?

Personally, I find the 'fog' lights on the GT kind of ugly.

And I wonder if they're going to have the same rear end and axles as the current GT... I'd imagine if I convinced 2003gt to get rid of his, and buy a new 2005 and put the blower on it... it'd kick ass.

Think this V6 will be a good modder?

You're high. It reminds me of a California Special.

I would consider getting one if it had something more powerful under the hood. I'm almost putting out the same numbers from a stock 4 banger, so if I buy a V8, I want something with some balls.

What I REALLY want is Chevy to come out with a retro Camaro to compete with this retro Mustang.

Theres no replacement for displacement. 346, 350, 383, 396, anyone? Or... 454?

I've always thought that this body style was ugly however, everytime I see it I like it a little more each time. I think its one of those things that has to grow on you and you either really like it or you hate it. Wonder what the sticker price will be

I really need to see one in person/drive it to decide if I like the design.
From the initial pics I thought it looked good, then I have seen 2 videos and it made me unsure.

Obviously the 3V will make a bit more power than the current modulars but I guess the real question is what it will weigh, as I have heard conflicting reports. What good is the extra ponies if it weighs a few hundred more pounds.
S/C 'ing it will be the same gamble it is now, with the hyper-pathetic pistons in there again.
Nice to see the suspension made it into the modern world.

I say forget the s/c and getta TT

the shitty thing is, the new 3 valve heads flow almost just as good as the present 4 valve heads (so they say)...so can you say BOOST? of course, they put the same (well flat top) pistons and rods so itll grenade within 6months minimum. oh well.
