Wow, so far it's pretty even. About 50% faker wannabees, and about 50% **** retentive real men.

I voted scoop but only to even the poll up a little bit If I could get the right one at the right price I would buy it. If I had the cash I would go with a different ram air hood

I voted for the scoop. I also own a Mustang II coupe (and happen to love the Cobra IIs), so maybe that's why I have a scoop on my GT/CS.

As a II owner, I am completely impervious to insults from other so-called Mustang enthusiasts about my cars, so me worry about a little nonfunctional hood scoop? Please.

I think people should have an open mind. But whatever. If I cared what people thought about my II, I wouldn't have one.

p.s. I don't want to get off track of the topic because this is a separate debate, but what surprises me most is that people who wouldn't think of keeping their Mustangs stock always criticize Mustang IIs because they were underpowered or had fake this or that from the factory. A II can be modified like any other Mustang.

No Scoop.... mine has no scoop and the hood looks nice and sleek. I also heard that the scoops are causing some drag. The factory scoops also seem to have liften in some sections causing it to hold water under it. This is a big problem since I dont want water running down my hood 100 times after I wash and dry it.

Drag? What the? Okay, if you plan on going over 120mph...and if you are, you have the wrong car.

This car comes alive at 140! I don't know how your Grandma drives when she droppes you off at school, but this car has more in it than most can handle.

I just found out that Ford stores all the scoops for the GT/CS in a small closet in Michigan! So 07gtcs has got it backwards!

The totally fake bolt-on scoop Ford installs on the new body is just.....bad. It reminds me of Ford's cheap efforts to add 'pop' to the car just like the 1967 Torino (sp?). If Ford wants to add a scoop to the hood why not stamp a new hoop with a built-in scoop like the 1966/67 GTO? It looks a lot better than a bolt-on.

I ordered mine because I DIDN'T want the appearance package and I DIDN'T want the rear spoiler! Scoop envy my a s s!!! I actually think the stock hood looks really good. It's nice and clean with nice contours. Of course this is my humble opinion. Please don't flame me if you disagree! 2EHO
