just got an article on the 05.... ill try and post it ...some nice quotes were
" The body-in-white is probably the best we've ever done. Excellent dimensional control. Great margins, great fits and great compatibility"
"In the case of the 2005 mustang, it is a foundation that is stiffer and offers better handling than the vehicle it is replacing"
"The other thing that we've put in place is a better timing plan with more cadence to engineering reviews and a much smoother launch process"
Nothing really new...but the article raves about how great the dimensional control is. Out of the ones ive seen i can't believe how nice of a fit they have.
Other news...i talked to a kid last night who rides in 10/11 second cars like every night of the week. He said the 05 is a dog
...but that it did come out very nice from a dead dig. He said that it was slow top end....but hey he thinks machs are slow as well... Only time will tell...but for my buddy to admit that was a shock....i think we have a winner on our hands in terms of a great 1/4 mile car. I mean heck stock rx-7 third gens only run 13.5's ....look how many of those are in the 11's now. I cant wait

yea ive heard from several 'people' that this is going to blow everyone away...its a mach 1 for the price of a gt with the fit, finish, and ride quality of a mazda....all for like 27 max.......i think ford has a hit on their hands...what other car can you get that has 300 hp (under-rated) for that price? nothing.

Awesome.. glad to hear about the fit and finish.. let's hope they hold up after the warranty is gone. I swear.. cars can tell when it's almost up.
