Folks,

The 2005 Mustang is also featured on the cover of the new (Feb?) Motor Trend.
A several page article ensues; including a picture of a 68 Shelby, for those that
have never seen one.

I can't decide if I like it; the 68 Shelby/retro look is terribly cool. But it's a
Thunderbird with a Mustang front end. I understand that Ford needs to
reuse platforms/parts. But it just hasn't captured me yet. And the interior
looks cheaper than ever. Although a 400+ bhp supercharged V8 with IRS,
stiffer chasis, and 6-speed manual would be an upgrade from my current
Cobra.

This might help make me go for a 2004 Cobra instead of waiting for a 2005.
The way I see it now, the current Mustang/Cobra is a better looking car than
the proposed 2005.

What do other folks think?

Hello,
Ford Motor Company took the wraps off it's 2005 concept Mustang. Supposedly, the only difference between the concept
and the production car is that the production vehicle will be a four seater, as opposed to the two seater concept.

Anyways, follow the link below to see pictures and read about the car. I suspect that when you look at the car, the first
thing that comes to mind is "1968 Shelby Mustang"

Certainly opens room for debate. Stangnet has good coverage, including
the fastback. Check here stangnet.com/

Folks,

The 2005 Mustang is also featured on the cover of the new (Feb?) Motor
Trend.
A several page article ensues; including a picture of a 68 Shelby, for
those that
have never seen one.

I can't decide if I like it; the 68 Shelby/retro look is terribly cool.
But it's a
Thunderbird with a Mustang front end. I understand that Ford needs to
reuse platforms/parts. But it just hasn't captured me yet. And the
interior
looks cheaper than ever. Although a 400+ bhp supercharged V8 with IRS,
stiffer chasis, and 6-speed manual would be an upgrade from my current
Cobra.

This might help make me go for a 2004 Cobra instead of waiting for a
2005.
The way I see it now, the current Mustang/Cobra is a better looking car
than
the proposed 2005.

What do other folks think?

Hello,
Ford Motor Company took the wraps off it's 2005 concept Mustang.
Supposedly, the only difference between the concept
and the production car is that the production vehicle will be a four
seater, as opposed to the two seater concept.

Anyways, follow the link below to see pictures and read about the car.
I suspect that when you look at the car, the first
thing that comes to mind is "1968 Shelby Mustang"

All,

I have to agree w/ Bill, Wow that thing is cool!
When I first saw pictures of the then new SN-95 Mustang
I thought it was much much better then the same old box
they've had out since '79. Since 1979!! crites!
Though it took a little time for the SN-95 design to
rub off on me, the '05 hit a home run w/ me at first glance.

I love the front and the rear (although I'm not a big fan of
LARGE cheap plastic tail lights). I also like that the body
wheel wells finally look proportional to the rest of the car.
I'd like to see what the production interior will look like.

It certainly does have styling cues of '67-68 but retro
is 'in' says PT Cruiser, the Beetle, the Mini, pirate shirts
and hip huggers jeans.

I'd like to see what the production interior will look like.

It certainly does have styling cues of '67-68 but retro

Folks,

The 2005 Mustang is also featured on the cover of the new (Feb?) Motor
Trend.
A several page article ensues; including a picture of a 68 Shelby, for
those that
have never seen one.

I can't decide if I like it; the 68 Shelby/retro look is terribly cool.
But it's a
Thunderbird with a Mustang front end. I understand that Ford needs to
reuse platforms/parts. But it just hasn't captured me yet. And the
interior
looks cheaper than ever. Although a 400+ bhp supercharged V8 with IRS,
stiffer chasis, and 6-speed manual would be an upgrade from my current
Cobra.

This might help make me go for a 2004 Cobra instead of waiting for a
2005.
The way I see it now, the current Mustang/Cobra is a better looking car
than
the proposed 2005.

What do other folks think?

Hello,
Ford Motor Company took the wraps off it's 2005 concept Mustang.
Supposedly, the only difference between the concept
and the production car is that the production vehicle will be a four
seater, as opposed to the two seater concept.

Anyways, follow the link below to see pictures and read about the car.
I suspect that when you look at the car, the first
thing that comes to mind is "1968 Shelby Mustang"

To me it looks like the current model which I always thought was a very =

Folks,

The 2005 Mustang is also featured on the cover of the new (Feb?) =
Motor Trend.
A several page article ensues; including a picture of a 68 Shelby, =
for those that
have never seen one. =20

I can't decide if I like it; the 68 Shelby/retro look is terribly =
cool. But it's a=20
Thunderbird with a Mustang front end. I understand that Ford =
needs to=20
reuse platforms/parts. But it just hasn't captured me yet. And =
the interior=20
looks cheaper than ever. Although a 400+ bhp supercharged V8 with =
IRS,
stiffer chasis, and 6-speed manual would be an upgrade from my =
current
Cobra.

This might help make me go for a 2004 Cobra instead of waiting for =
a 2005. =20
The way I see it now, the current Mustang/Cobra is a better =
looking car than=20
the proposed 2005.

What do other folks think?

Hello,
Ford Motor Company took the wraps off it's 2005 concept Mustang. =
Supposedly, the only difference between the concept
and the production car is that the production vehicle will be a =
four seater, as opposed to the two seater concept.

Anyways, follow the link below to see pictures and read about =
the car. I suspect that when you look at the car, the first
thing that comes to mind is "1968 Shelby Mustang"

Don't you think they are kind of limiting the market it will appeal to by only having a 2 seater?

Haven't made up my mind yet whether I like it or not.

Mail From: (email redacted) (Natas Mustbe)

I've seen... and I just think that they use our "Mustang'love" to make
commercial things... the real problem is that it works well !

If they could only understand that we love the REAL mustang, but it make me
wonder... isn't a real mustang ?
In fact, there's less difference (in the far-shape) between a '05 mustang
and '69 than between a '73 and '69 !!!

But it couldn't help me to like it anymore.... too roundy things !!
'66 to '69 are the best in my mind...

PS : please apologize my poor english... (I'm French!)
