ZzZzZzZzZzZ ford mustang.

JayKay335i · 02-08-2010, 11:04 PM

Awesome car except that its a ford, and a mustang.

HP is fun and all but I just cant stand mustangs.

Year's_End · 02-08-2010, 11:36 PM

Definitely would be a fun car to own. And they just came out with a new aluminum block. The engine alone weighs like 120 lbs less. I think the styling is badass too. My only concern would be that base mustangs are common and that'd make this less special.

uh holy shit @ those launches

On the flip side, I could see this as a second car that is a track and street beast that you just plan to mod the hell out of and make a fun weekend driver. But as a DD, no way.

Yeah, those launches are bad ass.

SoCali E36 · 02-09-2010, 12:46 AM

what kind of tranny is in that thing?

silvergray545 · 02-09-2010, 12:59 AM

OMG those launches are nasty!!!

Alexander · 02-09-2010, 01:04 AM

Dude I had a 2007. Huge piece of shit. I nearly died one time when I hit some sand going 30 in a turn. Horrible road handling, terrible ford build quality, horrible interior, terrible suspension set up, weak ass super charger (get a kenne bell or procharger), the list goes on.

To sum it up I sold mine after 20,000 excruciating miles, sure it was fun but it was still a cheap ford. I do however miss that speed. Damn it was fast. When I down shift in my 328i nothing happens, but thats the reason I drive it, bmw quality and 30+ mpg and I can't do 180+.

I've always liked the styling of this gen GT500. It still looks a little bloated like all the new/newer mustangs, but it works with all the other styling/perf cues of the GT500. Nice and aggressive. It's also not as over the top looking as the KOTR.

blue-coupe · 02-09-2010, 04:39 PM

There are sooo many special edition mustangs, I don't even bother keeping up with them any more.

Probably will need going through before long.

JCtx · 02-09-2010, 05:05 PM

The 2011 GT will have a NA 5.0L DOHC V8 engine with 412HP (375TQ, I believe) that I much prefer than anything FI, even if less power. It'll be a performance bargain, but I absolutely HATE the retro styling crap, so I wouldn't own one for nothing. I much prefer a used (but pristine) C6, although the interior is crap as well, but more easily remedied.

alq80 · 02-09-2010, 05:19 PM

i think it just looks and sounds mean... the interior isnt too bad either!

Maestro · 02-11-2010, 04:01 PM

The engine was crackling as he rev up, kind of odd sounding, must be the RPM limiter kicking in or something.

I am a big muscle car fan and definitely like mustangs, own a few in the past and restored a 66 stang with 289 in it.

Before buying a 335I I was seriously considering putting my name on a wait list for Shelby 500. I am glad I did not since I do drive my car every day. The stang make so much engine and exhaust noise that it will wear on your nerves after a period of time that is for sure. It fun when you are young but it makes hard to enjoy day after day.

Can you imagine the facial reaction of a 335 or any BMW owners in general when they get dusted by a "stang"
