    I don't like the hood, the 2 oversized floods on the front, the lack of the 2 additional headlights in the grill......past that, ok (but it's still a Ford.....lol)

    Yeah. A little too bold looking for me.

    Anybody got a new 2005 GT yet?

    I'm having serious withdrawals after selling my '94 GT convertible to a guy's wife at work. I thought I was over this stuff; that the play was out of me....that I would be happy with the SUV.

    That 2005 white GT sure does look purdy.....

    You can't even get a new GT at the dealership right now without a hefty markup over MSRP. Ford is having to increase production by 70 percent to keep up with demand. Unreal.

    Nothing wrong with Ford dude. I never had any major problems.

    The spinners look stupid, on a wheel with no offset. Agree, the big lamps in the middle look more suited for an old Lancia Rallye.

    LOL... that reminds me of a story with the convertible. I've got a SUV now to haul stuff around. With the Mustang if I forgot the golf clubs in the trunk, I was always in trouble.

    Back in '95 when I lived in Baton Rouge, I bought some big **** Cerwin Vega floorstanders with the 12 inch woofers, midrange and tweets (not horns). I didn't realize how big the damn boxes would be.
    Not that they would even come close to fitting in the trunk but I THOUGHT I could get them both in the back seat of the stang.

    I rode home with the top down, each speaker sitting like a person in the back seat in the box and with the seat belts on!
    I'm a friggin basket case.

    I left the Cerwin Vegas at my mom's house. I listened to them about 2 weeks ago. Holy Christo what was I thinking back then.:confused: LOUD party speakers that's about it.

    I think that first car looks pretty bad ****. However I agree with everybody that the center lights need to go.

    I've owned Mustangs since 1969 and currently have 3....But there is no way I would ever own any of the various "Eleanor" pieces of crap. A total waste of good Mustang bodies if you ask me.
