Of course you would say that :icon23:

I like this Mustang. I've never been slightly interested in the Mustang..except the Roushe, of course. But I'm really diggin the center exhaust. What everyone needs to remember is times are changing..as will the cars. And thats actually not a bad look considering the flow of the rear bumper. I'm still all Z tho ;)

No thanks, love the concept, hate the result.

Too much money, by far.
Ugly rear end all together, especially after the model change. Are those reverse lights randomly in the bumper?
That lip spoiler looks pointless.
WTF with the interior? Those seats actually look uncomfortable. Why do the speakers protrude from the door?
The A-Pillar gauge pod? Couldn't do anything in the middle of that plain, flat dash?

/rant

I do like the front end though, about the front half of the car (on the outside.)

If I thought anyone was flaming a Mustang I would have certainly detected it. And there is no such flaming happening, dude......Gessusss!!! :wtf2:

LOL, really, where the heck did that come from. Too funny, that one was right outta left field :tup:

I've liked mustangs in the past, but just haven't been into them since about 94.

Where did the 94 touch you?

Bullshitted again....8 years ago I had a 76(?) Mustang Cobra...my man was rebuilding the engine and exterior...had it fully chromed out under the hood but gave up cuz it was costing too much to rebuiild. Gave it up for $8k :( Wish I still had it, that thing sounded like a BEAST! Rattled my house windows and all.

Meh

blue660r01 01-26-2010 10:36 PM

That car is DISGUSTING (as in ugly). I wouldnt pay for that if I were rich.

Endgame 01-26-2010 11:25 PM

Wow.. I was hoping the Shelby 350 would rock. It sucks..... big time sucks. Like one of the other posters stated, for that money, I would take a M3 or pony up for a GT-R....

Chupacabra 01-27-2010 11:07 AM

you cannot just say the car sucks, if

a) you have not owned one

b) you have not driven it

I agree that 60k is insane for a mustang, but with out driving one, who is to say it not some new formula from Ford and it actually is an M3 competitor? (I know I laughed at that last part my self)

I don't mind the car, the rear end could sue some work, its the fake hood scoop that kills me. little details.

mick 01-27-2010 11:16 AM

i would rather have this GT350 than a M3 for the reason that there are simply too many M3 where i live.

And there arent any Mustangs? wow. :ugh2:

Red370 01-27-2010 12:54 PM

I tried to snap a cell phone shot real quick but the light changed just as I pulled my phone out, yesterday I was sitting at a stop light with 6 lanes, I literally counted 6, yes, 6 Mustangs altogether stopped, counting both sides of the road. I LMAO'ed:rofl2:

i am pretty sure there are more 3-series bmw here than mustangs, even the base model. they are everywhere. i go out in the company's parking lot and there are at least 10 of them.

and I'm sure if you goto Detroit, you will see more Mustangs than BMWs...it goes with the territory...

blackflag 02-12-2010 12:11 AM

I don't understand how this makes sense when the GT500 is $48k. People who want "Shelby" on their car, I guess.

Pushing_Tin 02-12-2010 12:23 AM

2011 with a mast antenna? Ghey.

Old Chuck 02-12-2010 07:32 AM

As to cars and where you live
 
I am sure you are correct. Most of my time I live in Upstate SC where many BMW's are built and they are everywhere. It is looked at supporting the local economy. You see more 3's then Chevy's, Fords or Toyotos. There are a bunch of local events held at their performance tracks.

As to the GT 500 costing $48,000, Many dealers sell the 500's for twenty grand more then the sticker because you don't see that many. Is it worth a price that pushes it well into Cayman or GS Vette territory? Beauty is dependent on the beholder however, I do think the 2011 Mustang GT with 412 HP and track pack for low to mid 30's is a good price for what you get. Don't want to start a "which is best" but just an opinion...

speedoflife 02-12-2010 12:12 PM

Needs a bigger spoiler.

for sure, my 370z nismo is a lot rarer than those bmw 3 series cars where i live.

even the guys who work at the nissan dealership said they had never seen one in real life until the day I came to pick it up :)
