I'm thinking that really could be my next car. I absolutely LOVE it.

[soCalTA]

Nice looking car I must say.

[Performin Norman]

I like it. It's purdy. I wonder how much it weighs.

[Jay 02 TA ws6]

Any idea when it will show up in dealer showrooms?

[Gary94Formula]

That's sweet... I wonder what the price tag is on it....

[76blackbird]

You can start placing orders for this car sometime in Nov.
At least that is what is being said.

IF you want to see the car in person, it will be at the NY Auto Show this coming weekend!!!
A buddy of mine is driving up Friday just to see it

And, may the f-body RIP.

I am tempted to scrap the '97 and go with this especially since GM can't get it together. Hmmm, it has me thinking. I wonder what the sticker will be; if it is around 40k, this may be an option.

Great minds think alike!!!!

That's the target price for me too... if it comes in under $40K... I am liking the possibilities of owning it

Am I the only one that thinks it's ugly? Not big on the new mustangs at all. That's all I see when I look at that. The 99-04 mustangs are starting to look better all the time after seeing so many of those.

Personally, I think it is a great looking car, and I have always hated Mustangs. The handling and road manners of the McPherson Strut suspension is the only thing I don't like about the new ones. Other then that, I think it is an incredible car inside and out. If they spent a few extra dollars on the front suspension, I would be selling my '97 and getting ready to place my order.

The answer is yes. And don't worry... once I get it, you'll only have to look at the rear end.

LOL, don't set yourself up for more disappointment and embaressment

[Joe 1320]

The car looks killer. The thread is getting funny. LOL!
