I must say, I love what Ford did with the new Mustang.(the rear end still needs a little work though)

Besides the classic Mustangs, the other Mustangs I like are the generation that was around in '95 or so. They can look so dang mean black with a nice wide set of tires on 17's. They make a beautiful street car.

The GT500 is very cool.

I'm not a big fan of Fords, but the new Mustang is hard to deny.

Well, I'm sure that's what all the focus groups told them.

This just goes to show you how big a mistake it was to kill off the Camaro and cast its fans aside. If Ford keeps the Mustangs reliable, why would these new Mustang owners ever come back to GM...Especially the vast majority for whom ultimate horsepower isn't the most important priority.

Damn.

 

GO MUSTANG!!!

you hearing the hoofbeat GM?????

Im sure your research group would say the Scion brand would be a bust too..and the RWD 300C and the Magnum

 

Wooptie do.


McDonalds sells alot of hamburgers.



Best burger in town ?

 

It automatically is the best if no other burger is sold in town.

 

Or you can put it like this...

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is King.

 

yea...its the Kauhuna Burger!

 

cobalt is selling 23,000 cars a month.

This is another win for RWD

 

Another head in the sand Camaro owner of the type I once ridiculed!

As I said when I had one for a week, the Mustang is pretty impressive. The V6 is as quick as the old 5.0s, the GTs are well into LS1 territory, and it still looks great & turns heads (who here doesn't automatically focus on the grill for the fog lights to identify a GT?).

 

Ya lost me on that one.

 

Yeah, me too.

I said that the Cobalt is selling 7000 MORE cars per month than the mustang. Maybe he thought I was saying that the cobalt was only selling 7000 cars per month?

I don't know. I'm lost on that too. Maybe it's because the Mustang is only 7000-8000 cars shy of the cobalt each month?

? So what does that have to do with sales ?

So McDonalds has billions and billions served because it sticks to what its fan base wants. Besides some tweaks to the menus and a occasional special it churns out tons of burgers sticking to a basic equation. Some people love them to death, some don't.
Even if its a #5 supersized with a coke i'm still not that impressed. Even if they sell a ton of them.

 

i don't think it will be an f-body when they bring it back
i wouldn't mind this, if they made it a good car. if GM can resurect the older days of mopar era performance. hemi's, 440's, in what ever you wanted, then i would praise them.

 

I dont think that it was a mistake to kill the 4th gen, but I wish that they sat down and rethought what a Camaro was, and what made Mustang successful.
They didnt, and the Camaro turned into a 4 seater Vette.
They killed off a car that was slowly dying. I dont think that if Camaro continued on a moddified Fbody platform, that it would be selling at levels like th eMustang is now, or even close. It would have probably hoverd around 80k units, maybe, and then we would be here bitching how GM needs to create a new Camaro.
I dont think that GM is sitting back anymore, and that if anything, they are pushing harder then ever to get the RIGHT coupe to market.

 

So you're saying they've just started leaning a little in that direction?
