*smacks forehead*

And you're in Tejas....

And, yes, it's the man himself, Carroll Shelby, for whom the car was named....

Looks better but I still don't really like the looks of the new mustang. Hard to argue with that kind of performance though. Now let's see if they actually keep the price below 40k before the god awful dealer markup these cars will get.

I don't really like he new stangs. The front end looks like....drooping eyes...I like the previous ones, like the 2000's...those are alright. But, I'd never own a F*rd.

Gotta say, the Shelby version is much better looking than the GT or Coupe. I guess it's just the small details they changed. Truthfully I wouldn't mind having one. I've always been diehard GM for performance, but with their current offerings that's all starting to change (SSR, GTO, Vette, the new el camino they've been talking about ).

Thumbs up Re: after seeing this all i can think of is Who Cares if there is a 5th gen

Looks great! I never liked the new look of the mustangs, but the way they touched that up, it looks awesome! They painted the back bumper on the bottom black, sorta like the 02 ta's anniv. , and it makes the bumper not look so big. Makes me almost want to buy one, how much hp does that SC add?

That thing is badass...


Likely more then I can afford but I dig the new GTs, but I still have a soft spot for the older ones the Mach Is are pretty sweet.

Re: after seeing this all i can think of is Who Cares if there is a 5th gen

its going to be expensive though.. i bet in the end it will cost about as much as a C6, maybe a few thousand cheaper..

At that point, I rather get a C6 which is still a better car overall...

But its still a badass car. Kudos to Ford.

We'll just have to see exactly how much HP, how much weight, and how much money it'll actually be when it hits the showroom.

The fornt and the rear need work, in my opinion. The rear could be, well, not as sloped. A little straighter, something else with the taillights. Square out the front, with the hood and all......Ih

The only thing that really bothers me on the new mustangs is the rear view mirrors. They just don't look right...
