Damn it man!!!!

Just got off the phone with an old friend who works at Flat Rock. The Mustangs they are running down the line at this moment have 3.7L v6 es with 300hp!!! and the GT's already have the 400hp 5.0L !!!!!!!!!

I just bought this thing less than a year ago and now v6 mustangs can hand me my ass!!!!!!

Buy a turbo/SC and then you won't have any problems

 

[LuckyH]

As much as that sucks for me it's kinda cool. Is the v6 going to be the "base" motor i take it? I'm also guessing these are going to be a mid year change for the 09?

 

[trill gear head]

Do you mean that the v6's are the 3.5L? and I thought they weren't going into production (both the new v6 and new v8) until 2011 at the earliest?

Its not the Ecoboost engines he said they were naturally aspirated V6's and their running them now.


Base = 300hp V6

GT= 400hp 5.0L

GT500= 600hp (dident say what engine 5.4L? 6.2L?)


I have a turbonetics kit that I plan to install next weekend. Just sucks that the car was bought last year and the V6's are making the same power the very next year.

then it'll be time to trade for a 400hp 5.0....

Good...

Good... someone will wadd one up after sticking a foot in it... get 5.0 and some interior upgrades for cheap... just wash the seats a few extra times

05 50... gotta NICE ring to it!

That would make a nice plate huh?

Yes indeed... it'd badge up nicely

Unless these are some kind of prototypes...I doubt they are actually running on the line. They aren't coming out for another year.

Here is the 2010 order guide.

i'm upset we're not getting them, and then i was upset thinking i spent all this time and money modding the one i have....i was already trying to sell it!

I've thought about doing that, enjoying the sleeper-ish look for now though

To bad the 2010 models are ugly as shit.

 

[marcspaz]

It's evolution. Most every new Mustang has out powered the previous model.

Not a big fan of the new body either. I am happy with what I have.

Plus, by the time aftermarket catches up to the new setup, we are going to have a flooded market and way better prices than what we see now. So, we should be able to go faster, cheaper.

Lets cross our fingers

Lets cross our fingers

Shit, all we can do is pray for that!

 

[Herknav]

mine might not be the fastest, but it sure as shit looks better than the rest of that pile of shit...

Thats what I said when I first saw the 05 models, but after a while they grow on you, And then I had to have one.

your the only one... most of us bought our 05s for the styling... hell, I passed up the chance to get an 04 Termi vert below MSPR to wait another 10 months for my vert....
