Here's the new model pictures for the 2005 Stang.









Thumbs Up Likes:
The front end how they incorporated the sunken in, single headlamps like that of the 60's Mustangs.
The double glass windows on the roof. Kinda gives the car the T-Top look that maybe they will bring back to the Mustang? Confused

Rolling Eyes Dislikes:
The interior. It looks like everything should have MOMO written on it and decals. Not sure what they had in mind there.

Its a very radical change from that of the previous model, but I guess we will learn to love it. Whatcha think?

Agree

IM going to have to agree with you DASWISH.. I love the exterior of the car, i love the thought of the GT coming with a supercharger, but i highly doubt that will go into the production car. However like you said the interior is a bit ghetto.. I dont know if the price is right i may just have to purchase one of these one they finally come out..

As long as it shits and gets I'm sure they can sell a boatload of them. We heard one of the concepts running up in Carlisle over the summer at the Ford show and it sounded bad ass. Of course it was pouring down rain so they put it away before we could even take any pictures.

It was the same car as the one that you found in the red variety. I'm not a big fan of the interior yet though.

I definitely think the interior looks a bit space-age. (Where's my thruster control?!?!)....Guess what it really comes down to is the performance and price. Hope it works out...

Yeah.. The interior is pretty space age. You dont have a close up shot of the gage cluster there, but ther cage cluste instead of it being a needle it is basically a cear inside of a gear, and it just rotates around. No needle at all. I can see that being a bitch if it breaks, or malfunctions..
Pretty neat idea, but i dont think it is very practical for a production car.

Well you guys decide. I think it is pretty neat, plus with the GT it is now rated at 300hp+ and that is stock. I have a feeling i will be buying one of these bad boys when they come out..

Yeah i'm gonna have to agree with Tom. Maybe down the road sometime, it'll be a nice Goal but not practical now.

All in all i'm deff a fan of the New GT...although the spaceage interior is a lil diff but it reminds me of getting the MODUAL Thumbs Up Cheers

They shoulda left that damn rear quarter window out, and they shoulda put the new boss 351 in it (40valve modular 351cid V10).

Well to anwser to brent that is what i ment.. I do not have the money for it now. I dont have the money for much. It is more of a goal im going to work towards. I might actually wait till 06 when they put out the new cobra, rumor has it that it is to be estimated 500+ hp.. Good times. And 90gtvert you are right they really should have used the boss351 engine that guy is bad ass.
