sorry to know of a poor product- all the more reason to go with the old mostly all metal standbys-remember all that plastic uses oil in the mfg process- ask for paper at the grocery store- we can grow more trees :lol: :lol:

I.M.O. - The '05's weren't a good bang for buck.... $30k for the GT version ?! Yeah Right!

i got the v6 for a good daily, and reliability wise its awesome, but the little things are just coming out, and luckily all the TSB's are free of charge for parts and labor, so its not a big deal other than time, which i never have. i mean its not a big deal, but it is at the same time ya know.

Sorry to hear about your troubles with the Mustang. We drove one awhile back and it changed our minds. We ended up buying a 2005 GTO and it is a solid performer. Much more impressive than the Mustang. On the GTO forum, there is a comparison of a Roush and a GTO and the GTO was stated as superior to the 38,000 dollar Roush. I have not read all the comparisons of these two cars, so I have to go on my first hand experience. I was surprisingly disappointed with the Mustang myself as I had liked the looks of them.

well I surely didnt get the car for performance, but it is still a head turner in the looks department. hopefully ford will take car of the problems and not make it a hassle.

the shelbys were backordered i believe. i may be wrong, but i think the release date got backed up. they honestly should have waited for 2007 to unvail and release the new body period. Work out all the bugs, and produce what you have already.
