The horse has been slaughtered!

The 2015 has been stripped of the brawny and distinct features unique to its muscle pony car heritage. The horse has been slaughtered! It has been rendered into a sports car.
Farewell good and faithful companion.

Same here. Bullitt's in the garage till spring.

Sorry - just seemed suspicious. Hope to see you make more posts.

It's a learning curb, better with wrenches.

Always good to have more wrenches on board. Lately there hasn't been enough tech talk.

I wouldn't say slaughtered, and becoming a sports car isn't a bad thing.
It looks great, has muscle car power, and with IRS, which never should have been discontinued when the Cobra was discontinued, will make it even better.
With its weight reduction, power, and handling improvements, it's still more "pony car" than the Cramero, and Challenged, could possibly be.
I will be ordering as soon as they tell me I can.

Dead wrong buddy. It's just different. Different is good. 05 went with retro styling cues but way more refined than any of its previous models. Tell me the beloved notchback looks anything like a Mustang. But everyone knows this as one of the coolest mustangs ever. Frankly I still believe the mustang lost its heritage in 05 when the chassis changed to a much more stable one. Much better car but not the same driving experience.

Seriously?
We don't need a bunch of threads about this.
Get off the soap box and join one of the other support groups.


And in 3 other threads no less..... SPAM is horrible on a forum OR a sandwich. No one likes it.
Please take a cold shower
