sorry if this is a repost
saw these while lurking over at MW

"For those of you who did not see my first post a while back, I was able to get an upclose view of the 2005 mustang because I run an Auto Show down here in West Palm. I know the pictures are grainy, sorry. Hope you enjoy " - Tony G







and finally a LINK to the original post.

Wow, seeing it next to the current Mustangs like that, it's amazing how much better it looks!! It's stance is perfection. The whole thing screams attitude. I love it!

Nice pics! Yeah, it's even better when seen side by side with the current model.

I'll take one in Windveil. Where do I sign?

I never stop marveling at how hot this car is. We haven't even begun to see the possibilities. The GT-R is just a hint of the hot rods that are coming. The SEs and SVT cars are gonna rock so hard. The GT is awesome in its own right, but, the future holds some incredible cars. It is a GREAT time to be a mustang man.

Wholeheartedly agreed. And, it's a great time to become a Mustang man, too.

Thanks for the pics, burningman...never get tired of new media. It's cool to see the '05 next to a current model!

glad to have you aboard. Maybe someday GM will get their heads outta their a**es and make a good muscle car again. I always liked the F-bodies. I wanted a Camaro SS real bad. It just wasn't good timing (college, kids, etc.).

The front nose pics just showed me how huge those fogs are going to look next to normal cars. Someone needs to make a GTR front repilca.

crazyhorse: I hear ya! One day they will, but that day isn't coming soon. After I saw what Pontiac did to the Firebird, the GTO, the Grand Prix, and then the Grand Am...well, I had to bail. I'm not a truck guy, and at GM, if you're not into trucks, you might as well walk.

Ford loves its muscle car guys! The '05 is proof of that!

In my opinion these pics do the car almost as much justice as seeing it for real. Those pics are my fave.

Best pictures yet. Wonderful comparison not only the present Mustang, but to a typical car produced today. The 05 is unique and will stand out among all other cars today. This car embodies both CLASS and TOUGHNESS at the same time and it will appeal to a very broad market. Overall, FORD has done a remarkable job with this car. I hope this thing will be as big of a hit as I think it should be.

Those fogs are huge... I saw the car twice, in person, they are not as bad. I don't know, I'm sure when I finally get it i'll be too overjoyed to care for a while.

Very cool. The more I see it the more I like it. That kinda looks like the road the supposed Cobra was sited on.

It has a longer wheelbase, with the front wheels moved much further up, so there's a lot less overhang compared to the old one.
