SpaceGhost Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 I have heard from a reliable source that the new mustang started down the assembly line 2 weeks ago and that the commercials advertising it will be Bullitt meets the new Mustang.(Steve McQueen for the noobs that do not know who Bullitt is) I like the new style. Thought I would share with all the 'stang freaks around here! Who will be the first to own one here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli1647545497 Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 ... holding to see what SVT does with it next year. I played the "waiting on the production line" game with my 03. Ugh what a pain, but then I have no patience, waiting hurts my thingie. Next car comes off the dealer lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevil Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Originally posted by SpaceGhost: Who will be the first to own one here?Me, I'll own one from a dig or roll. Seriously though, I like the new ones, but if I was buying a Mustang it would be an '04 instead of an '05, I like them better. The new ones look really good with racing stripes though (and 420 HP), like this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFKINPowerz Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Hey I am not a Mustang fan at all. Actually all of Ford but I think the new Stangs are fricking nasty. I cant wait to see on in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cobra isn't supposed to return until at least 2007 or 2008. Rumor has it, the next engine will be NA. I'd hang on to that '03 if I were you...

SpaceGhost Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 I read somewhere the 06 SVT Mustang is out Fall of 05........ Ford has 11/1/2004 as the offical release date of the new mustang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wease Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Originally posted by SpaceGhost: I read somewhere the 06 SVT Mustang is out Fall of 05........Negative. In fact, Ford canned the new Lightning that was supposed to have 500+ HP as well. It will be a few years before you see anything out of SVT, unfortunately...

Unleashed Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 From a VERY good source, the new Cobra will be a supercharged 5.4L 4v motor with a slightly different head casting allowing clearance of the shock towers. Should put out @ 500 hp graemlins/nod.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowgli1647545497 Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 hmm, the next Cobra delayed? My wallet thanks SVT. But then I may just buy a GTO when they get some muscle... so my wallet weeps anyway. But as for the delay - I'll see what it says in the next SVTOA mag. Colletti usually does an op-ed answering scoops in the media. But I wouldn't be surprised. There's no compelling reason for Ford to pay to make an SVT version of the new stang so soon. The body style alone will carry them thru 05-06 in sales. They don't need the Cobra as a Halo car with the Ford GT out now... And until or unless something comes on the market to challenge its market position (sales more than performance, but even on the performance side the Mustang GT at 300hp ~$21k there's no other new car that comes close), I can see them sitting on their business heels. (The NASTY scuttlebutt is that SVT go absorbed by Team Mustang... but thats a nasty rumor. Kinda like how SVO evaporated inside Ford: other project managers come in and raid the team) Can't say I'm hurt if the Cobra is delayed - I like my current car, and the Corvettes and GTOs have some neat things in their pipeline I might have to purchase. Hell I even kinda perked up hearing about that AWD Acura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
