Well the one publicity shot DID show the 18 inchers on it.
Which we know are 2006 material.

It also cuts down on making 2 sets of brochures. 2005 coupe/2005 vert
or 2005 coupe, 2006 vert/coupe.

 

I've been meaning to ask you Boomer - that's Stimpy, isn't it?

 

I have been looking into the rag for a long time now.
Been doing alot of homework on it.
Went and put a deposit on one.
Ordered Personel plates "LEGEND05"
When I read this i nearly kaka'd my pants.
I called my dealership and Ford Canada.
It is going to be an 05 .
THANK GOD!!!! Plates cost me over $200

 

Why yes it is...with a rubber nipple on his head

 

pics from the magazine?

 

AH AH AHHHHH....Trusting DEALER for reliable information??? Better be careful...read this board man. The dealers are notorious for flawed info. Matter of fact, most often, they are the single WORST SOURCE of good info.

 

I got a digital camera for Christmas and I decided to learn how to use it tonight. This is probably my first real camera ever, shy of the 11$ disposables in Kmart. Don't bash my picture skills as I havn't figured out what I am doing yet!

wow thats gorgeous!!!!

and kudos to brad for the redesigned homepage!!! Daddy like!

 

Nice Pix John, thanks!

 

No Problem! Just happy I could finally contribute something here!

 

The current order guide has 2005 Convertibles listed. The car will be released as an '05

 

Oh wow! That is the color combo I want. Except for I want the red leather seats. Torch red and a black top makes that vert so much nicer IMO.

 

BlackRiderX....thanks for sharing the pictures! I REALLY like picture 4. Those 18" wheels look great on there.

 

I would think 06 is more likely. I've read it will be show this month at an auto show (detroit) and released in the spring. Why would they release an 05 in the spring of 05?

Any thoughts on that fact that the vert has a softer suspension then the coupe, with a larger "roll" bar (stabilizer?)?

Was this also the case for the previous generation?

 

Does Anyone know where you can get a copy of autoweek or is it just availabe by subscription

 

 

I'm not sure but I have had the magazine for over a week now. I didn't think about the pics until I saw the thread. I sometimes get to see magazines a week early thanks to some "special" postal worker I know. I'll post more in the future if I see anything of interest.
