Well let's see, what do you know about the "new" Shelby's? Huh? Nothing! So how can you say anything positive or negative on just speculation and people's imagination? I think that is kinda funny......................
The GTO pic everyone discussed for months was a worse photoshop than those are.

SNEAKY,
We were all doing EXACTLY that with the GTO. If you will recall, the original press release was a photochop of the grey GTO from the front pass quarter. We bazooka'ed each other for WEEKS about the appearance, where it was coming from, the corporate styling theme, whether it had scoops or not, etc... ALL BASED ON ONE PHOTO that we knew wasn't a real car shot.

Those Shelby images are exactly the same - photochops.
So how is is so different?

Well, have you thought of the fact that people on this board care more about the GTO and how it is percieved than the Mustang? A lot of the same arguments for or against the Mustang still apply. The pics of the stang are people just throwing on stripes and scoops but the design of the car is still the same. You don't see how this is different? Wouldn't it be different if we hadn't seen the "new" Mustang and these people came up with thier own designs of a Shelby? Yes it would. Then you would see similar arguments similar to that of the GTO.

That is how it is different!

No , it never occurred to me.

Likewise...
Well, have you thought of the fact that the Mustang sales are more likely to help get a Camaro back than GTO sales?

I think many in here DO care a great deal about the Mustang.
Remember, "you don't have to own one to respect them".

Uh?I dont think you are 100% correct on that one.(take off the flame suit Im not flaming you dude )
If people on this board care more about the GTO and how it is percieved than the Mustang why isnt there more threads on the GTO then the Mustang?Esspecially now beings the GTO will be out soon enough.


Thoughts of the 5.4 3V making it into the 05 GT is not correct either.4.6 3V--5.04V are though/The 3.5 250hp Cyclone is definately correct.(not flaming you either ProudPony I am with you,not against you,Good work BTW)The BOSS engines are coming,It is just a matter of time.both are N/A
