Even though GM sponsors the Smithsonian vehicles, they now have a MUSTANG!

40 years of American icon, I think they should put an 05 next to it, and store them both.

The thing with the 05, is that you can see the classic in it. Its a great example of returning to the roots of the Stang.

I'd say if the '05 is shown to have a significant impact on Americana, THEN it could go in a museum. The FIRST Mustang did that, which is why it ought to be in there.
