Funny you ask. I have not seen one in person at all. Just pictures. I am dyin ova hea! I am in the NYC area and nothing. I look all the time. No dealer ships nothing. I can't wait to see one. Is this all real or a web illusion?

I know that Strider picked his up about a month ago. I have not heard from him since. I was going to go to the dealer to see his. He must be too busy driving it to post.
Just got off the phone with FORD. Mine was off loaded yesterday should get it any day now. When I get mine I work in Queens let me know if you like to see it.

I live in Denton, Tx ...

I do know the dealership here ...
James Wood Ford? I've heard good things about them.

Guess I'll have to make a pointed effort to look for your car next time I'm visiting my alum.

Besides the two at my dealership (1 is mine), I've only seen 1 other. It was at night, so I only could recognize the headlights and fogs. We were approaching each other on a two lane highway. I'm sure we both looked over our left shoulder and said, "Hey, that was another '05!"

So far I have only seen mine on the road. There is one at a local dealership though thats been there a long time. I think they are using it to show from.

I have not seen any on the road here in Cincinnati, just at dealerships and the Innovation Drive. A buddy said he saw one, and my mom "claims" she saw one on the road in Indianapolis.
Was it a Soinc Blue V6? If was, it was it could be my V6 I go Cinn. two days week.


but where I lived I'am only one who drives 05 on the road around tri-state

After reading JessicaRabbits' envy thread, it occured to me that even though the '05 Mustang has a "lot life" of under 48 hours on every dealer here in the Metroplex, I have yet to actually see one on the road.

How often do others see them on the road currently?
Haven't seen one on the street in Boston yet.

None spotted in Boston area or north. Sounds like Fla and SoCal are the only places where any quantities have arrived. Not surprising. Probably lots of Hertz airport rental V6s in both spots.

I woke up Sunday morning extremely hung over. I sifted through the beer cans and empty tequilla bottles from the night before to find my buddies. I wake them up, and tell them we need Jamba Juice.
So we pile in my car....I am probably still slightly drunk.....and we are stopped at a signal...and I am barely keeping my stomach under control.

My buddy says "hey, isn't that a new mustang?"
"where?"
"right next to us"


I had been sitting at that darn light for God only knows how long...and as soon as I notice the car next to me...the light turns green.

That was in Del Mar.

The second one was in Mission Viejo. It was a Silver V6.

The third my aunt saw. A Black GT or V6. she said she saw it in Dana Point.

So, they are slowly coming out.

I have only seen one here in Utah and it was a Yellow GT and it had aftermarket polished 5 spoke type 18's and some really low profile/wide tires. I was just driving past so I didn't get to look real close but it looked really good.

Saw one down here in Huntington (WV) ... though it was parked on the Marshall campus lot, not being driven at the time. Havent seen it since so i am guessing whoever has it is now parking in the garage where its a lot more protected. Actually havent even seen any in the local dealers lots yet ... back of the world WV we will get them last ... LOL.
