A very cool article about Hau Thai-Tang and the Mustang GT. It quotes Brad and mentions TMS.

It's also on the front page of their website under the Business header.

That was a great article. It seems the writer actually did some research. I've never heard about Shinoda getting credit for the Vette before.

That was an interesting article. I've heard some of those things, but this article was very comprehensive and told me things I've never heard. Thanks for posting it for us.

"This is the best Mustang ever produced," said Brad Barnett, who runs an enthusiasts' Web site called TheMustangSource.com. "It's all-American. Baseball, apple pie and Mustang are all-American."

Well said well spoken!

For the record, I gave several great quotes; Greg even said I should work at Ford PR. Oh well, it's cool the site got some exposure.

If this forum was as tasteless and crude as some others (none mentioned of course) I doubt you would have been quoted. Thanks again for keeping a nice clean place for us to go to. I just need the ability to be a smart-a... and I'm good.

They just ran this article in my local paper today (with a Perfomance White GT pictured!) and this guy hit the nail on the head saying it took an outsider to design the car this way.

I also loved the part about using the movie to tune the exhaust. When I first heard the Flowmaster setup, that's what i liked about it. Their clip sounded exactly like the movie. Then I heard clips from other companies... and so did their's! It's not the aftermarket mufflers that make the car sound so good. It's the car! (they just make it louder)

I also have to mention the part about giving credit to "the man who inspired the 2005 Mustang." That was pretty cool.

That was a great article. Sometimes, it does take someone from the outside to remind people what's great.
