Of the three we've seen so far, which aftermarket tuner do you think is developing the best 2005 Mustang package?

Im waiting. I was going to go for the "I like it how it is" but you never know. I could get surprised. I doubt it it'll be by Saleen, but only time will tell. Shelby Wont let us down, or at least I hope they dont.

I am going on what has been unveiled so far. Funny that Roush hasn't scored one vote........

Based on what i've seen so far, i went with Eleanor. I think Roush may have did themselves harm by releasing those sloppy chops.

So far there is not one "tuner" car that I would buy outright

The '05 is such an clean design that any aftermarket stuff looks really dumb (see roush render)

How about a tasteful, but unique tape stripe on the side of the car. One that further enhances the agressiveness of the car. Would the 1970 Boss 302 and the 1971 Boss 351 have been as menacing looking and remembered if there were no tape stripes. These cars also had unique blackout treatments which even further enhanced there aggressive appearance.

So far, I like the Eleanor, but it's still a wait and see.

I'm all about Custom Cars in a Hot Rod sense. Chip Foose is my hero. I love his Ideas. And Bonspeed's got the look I think. Lower the car a bite, big slicks on the back. a little more of an aggressive stance. Thats the look I love

I think the pre 05 cars where probably easier to add body kits to, in which the 05 will be a little different due to the fact it is already a great looking car, over doing it would just crap it up. Simple things will make this car really look better.
