Status: offline I stopped by the ford dealer up here in jacksonville to check out the new mustang and as soon as i pulled in i saw a ROW of them. Dont be too surprised though they were only V6's...9 of them. I got to looking at them and the salesman eventually came over and opened it up for me. Im not too sure about the interior, i guess it just takes some getting used to. After a while of looking at it he asked me if i wanted to drive it, i said sure even though i really wanted to get into a GT, but this would do for now. Its improved alot i must say but then again it should with almost half a liter bigger engine. Seems like it has MUCH better throttle response than older stangs (maybe thats just cuz my car is a 96 and has about the worst throttle response of any car ever made). It does have some balls and some serious torque for a V6, with a few mods here and there it would be a nice car, definately needs some exterior work though...ecspecially the hood, WAY too plain. Cant wait to get to drive a GT .

Status: offline You have to like the 60's style mustangs. The interior is like my 67 and the outside looks like my 65 Fastback. I love it and I'm saving up to buy an 05 GT.

Status: offline I got to drive the new gt and its pretty nice. Im more partial to my 99 though. I hate the exhaust they have in them. Sounds gutless but thats always the first thing to go. Plus looks are decieving, they pull pretty good. I like the short throw, It only takes a flick of the wrist to work it through. The high arm wrest will take getting used to but the seats are way comfortable.
