What do you think times will yeild for the 2005 mustang?

  
WhiteHawk -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 12:22:54 PM)

With the supercharger?  -- hard to tell, because I don't know the weight due to the body changes.  --  sure is nice though....have you seen the engine bay?


for some reason I can't post it....I'll see if I can post it in the photo gallery area...

Jugador1 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 12:37:40 PM)

The real concern of the 2005 Mustang is the damn price.  I hope they can pull it out, but isnt it supposed to cost bout $20k base model?

WhiteHawk -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 12:44:34 PM)

20k???????   no, flippin way....REALLY??? for a V8??   If it's under 30K I'll get it.....

dropTopSnake -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 12:49:45 PM)

I don't know if the new one is DOHC or SOHC, assuming that it is SOHC, it could not be more powerful than the 03 cobra, maybe around the low 13's, or even the mid 12's. Who knows


 

Jugador1 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:03:17 PM)

yeah i hear 20k...but don't get me wrong, i hope that i am lying my ass off.  but all new body panels and crap has got to raise costs doesnt it?

gdear66 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:25:37 PM)

Ford had a press release stating the engine will be 4.6L 3V SOHC. I am unsure about the hp though. At some point there is also supposed to be a 5.4L produced but I don't know if that will be only for special editions or if it will be a new cobra engine. They also stated the price would not change much from current prices... maybe 1-2K increase.   


They won't produce a new cobra until 2006 either. It will remain with the same body style as current.   


WhiteHawk -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:29:11 PM)

So we're probably talking over 30k for a nicely equipped one......bummer

BCisme -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:29:22 PM)

jugador, i would think the cost goes more into the design.... than the actual cost of the materials. got to pay those engineers.

Sean -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:55:00 PM)

There goes the "bang for your buck" the Mustang is known for.

Jugador1 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 1:56:51 PM)

yeah, now its bang for more buck

Redline5th -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 2:24:36 PM)

I guess we'll just wait and see about the price cause it's not set in stone yet...I hope it'll be just as cheap!

Sean -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 2:29:11 PM)

Well at least we still have all of our old favorites to mod the hell out of!

BCisme -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 4:00:50 PM)

if they sell em cheap, people will buy em like crazy. and we will have a surge of used late model mustangs, since they have sold so many since...hell since they started makin em. hell i might abandon mine for one...

65gt350'R'mod. -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 7:59:11 PM)

I heard for a stock GT, its just under 30k.

Jugador1 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 8:19:38 PM)

stock...as opposed to factory modified?  lol.  you cant not get them stock.  and i will enjoy the surge because they will be cheaper!  Then maybe I could get a GT (its looking like V-6 is the only choice i have cause of insurance, but if the car is cheap who cares right?)

BCisme -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 10:31:03 PM)

i'd eat the cost, and get the GT if affordable for you. if you can get the loan to buy a 30G car, might as well get it and just budget your $$ till insurance goes down for you.

Jugador1 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 10:34:50 PM)

i could never afford a 30g car being that im not yet 16.  thats just a joke tho!  it must be wrong!

chrisle7220 -> 2005 Mustang times (8/8/2003 11:16:27 PM)

its really to early to tell. rumors have it going the gt will be anywhere from 300-325hp. And supposedly the new mustang cobras will be 500hp costing anywhere from 35-45k. Like redline said, it aint written on stone yet. we just got to wait and see what comes about. if the GT will be 30k, then i doubt i can afford one. but i'll just wait a few months and maybe get a used one with barely any miles on it. it could easily be 5k less then a brand new one.

BCisme -> 2005 Mustang times (8/9/2003 8:52:58 AM)

chrisle's got the right idea. they'd still be brand spanking new, there's always someone who gets rid of it quick. when i was srt-4 shopping, i found a black one for sale, guy took it home, 3 days later lost his job and had to sell, had like 300 miles on it. he wanted 18 for it i think. i've found 03 cobras for sale for under 30G's.
