In that case, father one for me will ya! 😛

BTW, do you have any :camera:'s of you 5.0 Twista?
 
They are going to make a load of cash selling those things. It's the first modern Ford that I have lusted after.
 
Nice car...that might be a buy when I graduate from College...I don't know though right, there are a couple of other cars that are interesting to me.
 
if they got the interior right and it really handles like the review has mentioned (edmunds rarely writes negative reviews), ford has a winner... as a coupe as least.
 
Is this the same company that produces the dowdy looking Ford 500, Freestyle, and Freestar that are as exciting as c-span? I thought Ford has turning into something good after the seeing the GT40, F-150 and Mustang.
 
Hot damn, what a beauty. To bad there are going to be so many of them on the road.

Think I'll wait a year or two for Ford to iron out all the wrinkles that are bound to show up... I mean it is a Ford 😉

But until then I'll dream of my own GTO GT convertable, in midnight blue if you please 😀
 
Why does Ford put independent rear suspension into the Explorer, but not the Mustang. Someone at Ford needs to have their head examined.

IRS is reserved for the Cobra...and besides it's cheaper that way.

That's BS. A sports car should have IRS standard. I would get it if it had an IRS.
 
Finally a REAL mustang. The interior really has to be seen in real life to do it justice, its just simply amazing.

The Mustang has NEVER been a sports car. Mustangs have for the most part been "straight-line" machines. And the SRA appeases the "drag" crowd.

It's never been a sports car BECAUSE Ford never put an independent rear suspension in it, except for special models, not the other way around. The drag strip argument is a lame excuse. They should design what's best for everyday buyer in stock form, not for who is gonna mod it. Ford's responsibility is to build the best car when it's stock, not make it cheap to mod.
