Personally I think the car looks really good. Ive always been a huge fan of shelbys, plus this thing has 475 hp, pretty impressive. I wonder how this will compare to the new 2007 Charger.

A friend of mine's dad put down a deposit on one already. I can't wait until he gets it.

I think it's pretty freaking sweet.

But one thing that always bothered me on Mustangs were the cheap looking, plastic side mirrors. I love how they're color matched on some of the Cobras of the last model I've seen.

Saw one at the DC car show. Nice but expensive for a Mustang. Probably would take a C6 over it for the $.

Last i heard there was some controversy over the output of the motor. Ford was debating that they would not allow Shelby to create the hp near 500 because the GT40 produces 550 and they dont want any mustangs close to their 500hp car (gt40)

looks pretty hot.

Motortrend said that it should be around 500hp and the 475 is underated when its really dynoed

475hp is a LOT of power!!! I like it. As much as I can like the new Mustang, anyway.

I agree.....the power is great for that car but a bit pricey. I dont know much about the superchargers but 8.5 lbs of boost is all it is putting out according to the article. Just imagine if you upped the boost

I saw it at the 06 NAIAS, looks great! However the new challenger looks a TON better to me. But im bias, i'm a Mopar guy :)
