You can keep the 19s, though. That's a bit much. I'd like to be able to still walk upright when I'm 40.

Response awaited.

The Camaro had Megan Fox slathered all over it. The Mustang's recent claim to fame? It was driven by a blind guy.
Suck it, Mustang.
Reponse awaited.
(Seriously, though, I would love one of these.)

Oh I went there.

I am twenty-three years old and a fan of both the Transformers toys I played with as a child and Megan Fox, whom I would like to play with now.
And besides, Ford didn't get a bailout because there was nothing to bailout in the first place, as Mulally had already mortgaged everything out.
And the Mustang? Still not hearing anything that can better having Megan Fox draped all over the Camaro.

As for the Mustang, there will always be countless images of ho-bags "draped" over black Fox Bodies. No Megan Fox, but I can pretend. I can pretend.

Besides, power seat belts sucked, especially when the little motors failed, which they did quite frequently.

Her + 2011 Mustang = Win of all time.

All this one-up-manship totally benefits consumers.

So sums up the obligatory Mustang whining we get here. Having gotten that out of the way, I applaud Ford for making the V6 car a contender and a real alternative to the V8.

But a Mustang without a V8 bellow is too much like decaffienated coffee...

(I was reading my '87 Thunderbird brochure yesterday, blown four in a t-bird. Oooyeah)

The instant that something desirable is finally for sale, you can't have it because it's for sale either right after or right before you can afford it, and by the time you can afford it again, it's off the market and long gone.
I feel the same way about condos right now. I had enough for a 30% down payment on a $430k condo, and then my stock portfolio, which I was only a month or two away from ditching in favor of the down payment money, went kaput. Coincidentally, the condo I wanted was reduced in price to $390k and sold, while I am still in the poor house for the foreseeable future (my stocks won't recover for a while).
Being twenty-something and single sucks donkey balls.

Don't worry, being twenty-something, in a relationship and without two quid to rub together sucks similar equine appendages

Also, I live in SoCal. $430k is not abnormal in many areas.

The 6 keeps with the 8 because it's been to Rush Fitness Center and now has a lot less flab to drag around. Lighten the nose, it tucks better into corners. 300hp with a lighter curb weight keeps the power-to-weight ratio about the same, but it handles better with the track pack? Yeah, I'd skip the 8.

Boy we sure have come a long way from 5.0L V8s of the 80s producing an anemic 140hp. Who says progress is not good?

Pure Win Ford.
