"Ford Mustang continued to set a torrid sales pace in January as sales to individual retail customers were 33 percent higher than a year ago. Lower fleet deliveries partially offset the increase in retail demand resulting in an overall Mustang sales increase of 4 percent.
"The Mustang is the hottest car in the industry," said Hesterberg. "It is very unusual for a sports coupe to sell this well in the middle of winter. Our dealers and customers are looking forward to the arrival of the convertible, which started production this week."
Mustang -January 2005 sales 10,285, 3.8% higher than 2004.

Just think of how high they would have been if they hadn't had all the holds & interruptions. They woukld have been considerably higher.

There's got to be some fist pounding and head scratching going on over at GM headquarters.

talking about missing the boat.............my buddy at work was going back and forth between a mustang and a GOAT. To make a long story short, his GM-CENTRIC family talked him out of a Mustang (i think)........although he orderd a vehicle last week and will not tell me. He did throw an off-handed comment like, we can head out behind the building and I'll blow your doors off. lol I did not unload on him, because in the same breath he asked me again, you sure you don't like the GOAT? I said, look, I don't like it, its a Grand AM with no styling, they just dropped a big engine in it to make up for the lack of styling. My final words: At the end of the day, when you go home and turn the key, i know i will have a smile on my face driving home, where at least you'll know you have a bigger engine.........BAM!

When I first heard the GTO was coming back, I was excited about the possibilities....when I actually saw it at a dealer, it did look like a Cavlier on steroids. Wonder if GM has any thoughts/$$$, etc about doing an actual new/modified body with a retro look. If they do, it will be history repeating itself..GM trying to catch up with a Mustang.
