    Message from Ford

    Anyone else see a Ford commercial that claims that the mustang has had no real competition for 4 years now? I just saw out of the corner of my eye a few minutes ago and it was an obvious "kick in the groin" for f-bod guys (and the gals) like us.

    Nonetheless, they are right.

    They manipulated the wording in this situation but they are right. Literally. We'll see what happens when the new Maro comes out

    Yea i am GM all the way(even though i drive a dodge) but i do have to admit i wish they would stop putting cars out and then taking them back out......it kinda pisses me off. Thats why i dont wanna get a GTO anymore.....i dont want to finiance a used car with high interest thats as fast as mine is now.

    Yeah, I'm crossing my fingers on this as well. Hopefully this will give the GM engineers the inspiration they need to pull off a great performance car at an affordable price.

    that so called garbage has outsold the f-body by a wide margin.
    that why that car is still around and f-bodies are not.
    new f-body sales could tank just as badly as the 4th gens

    not going to happen. fully loaded ram air for example was like 30k 5 years ago.
    do you think with inflation and all it will be cheaper?

    You are 100% correct. Just because everyone else jumps off a bridge, doesn't mean I will. The facts you state won't change my opinion about it being garbage and the fact that the average person will choose a Mustang over an f-body won't change my opinion either.

    regardless-ford is shooting wildly, even if the GTO could beat it for 3 years straight, if Ford TELLS EVERYONE THEY ARE BETTER-they are percieved that way.

    Why do people like Mustangs so much anyway? Every body is always so excited about them. Other than the Cobra and the GT500, Mustangs really arn't anything special, yet everyone loves them.

    what do you mean by not so special? Its jus Ford version of a pony car? I like both the fbodies and my mustangs, honestly though I have no idea where you guys come up with the mustang being garbage other then that you jus dont like FORD? As far as the new Maro being badass.... We'll see when it comes out is right because theres sure a lot of talk about it for what, like 3 yrs now? When is this car actually coming out? The gto was a good car, with a GREAT engine. They are pretty badass modified but they really arent anything too great stock in the sense that the suspension is soft as hell and the brakes on the 04 are weak as hell. I drove an 04 6 spd and auto and aside from the interior and the acceration I really wasnt impressed. They wheel hop like hell and they dont handle that well. jus my 2 cents.

    I work in the performance exhaust industry. I witness what sells and what doesn't. V-6 mustangs sell, V-8 mustangs don't! Over 65% of Mustang exhaust sales go to v-6 mustang owners. They are winning with the shitty base model in sales not the GT's!
