Sorry if I offend anyone... wait no I'm not, I am offended by that color!
What do I see in Grabber Blue? A BOSS 302 clone just waiting to happen in 2011 (or a REAL BOSS SE model)!!! If I only had the money for a second car, it would be a 2011, BG 5.0, 6-speed!!! BUMMER!!

I don't know, I like things about it, while hating others....

I love how the back angles and looks from the profile...
I love how the panel curves right behind the door.
I love the black molding below
I think it looks awesome without a spoiler
The interior looks great!



But I absolutely hate....
the rear antenna
the way a thin part of the body sticks out below the black plastic on the fascia
the headlights, the fake chrome plastic is killing what I think is a nice concept
the hood, eh...
hate the reverse lights inbetween the taillights

Overall, the front headlight area reminds me of the new camaro, and the profile reminds me of a charger.

I seem to be liking it more and more as I continue to look at it, however, I was hoping for something more. I guess, perhaps, something more different.

waste of time and money

Why did Ford waste there time and money redesigning the cold air intake? Why not use the exsisting design and components used on the Bullit or Ford racing cold air intake?

I Noticed the Two Different Cold Air Induction lids in the Pic's over on AutoBlog too. I'm Assuming since the Grabber Blue and Second shots show an Obvious Change, that the One with the more Prominent COLD AIR INDUCTION on the Lid is the Production Model. Also if You Notice there is another Hose Attached to the Cold Air Intake in the Second Pic and Grabber Blue Pic. As for the Engine Bay being painted black, that is usually indicative of a Pre Production Model. Most of the time a New Model is shown from Ford they do this on Early Pre Production Units because it's easier to touch up if there has to be any work done in the engine bay. Also if You look at the Wiring Harnesses and Little Details around the engine bay you'll spot differences too.

Yeah, the GB shot is the production version. It's got the sound tube thingy on it.

Hopefully, this means that the "GT500" rear diffuser is actually the GT production version.

Knight: Yeah, Chris, I knew about Hau Thai (Mus)Tang's reassignment to Brazil in late '05 or early '06. I was pleading, beseeching, and begging him to return to Dearborn and commence decapitations until they get the next Mustang right. Leave these fools in charge and they'll make the next Mustangs FWD!!!

AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Biggest reason is it doesn't rely on the Hood liner for it's seal like my Bullitt. I think that is a good thing...



I don't like the exposed filter anyway, it is a pain in the *** to rinse under the hood...

I love how they slap a 'cold air induction' logo on the same old box - poof! CAI... yeah, right. Other then that, the car looks good, now if they'd only put a motor in it.

Your calling the new Mustang a "hunk of crap", and say you like the Challenger better? Do you know how heavy that car is? THAT is a REAL HUNK (4,100 lbs)!!!
