Eleanor, but in an 05-09 body.

yea there is a lot of complaining about it on Stangnet.. prob because it came out second .. if it had came out on the 05-09 cars they prob be complaining they changed it ...

Back in the muscle days just about everything looked good from economy cars (Nova/Chevy II) to cruise ships (Impala's/ Ford Galaxy

) from almost all manufacturers. Now just about everything looks like shit and they rape retro designs (05-09 stang is ok). I know aerodynamics, safety bumpers, and cost are a concern but got dayum guys... No wonder they don't sell anything

Thanks to a guy named Ralph Nader. IMO he killed the muscle cars back in the 70s.

I think it is because they are all trying to find that ' next big thing'.... also the lack of Chrome and real bumpers .. makes everything look like everything else ...

That's just downright laziness there. Nothin wrong with a lil reaching IMO.

and when you buy your car .. every one wants to complain about it and tell you what they dont like about it .. and that some $120k car can go faster ...

And that is nutswinging. For less than a quarter of that a GTO can run faster and harder.

**wheeliE-maxx** · 12-31-2009, 06:24 PM

and for less a 4th gen will go even faster

but i've ranted about them earlier in the thread. Not a fan anymore

**snaggeltooth** · 01-01-2010, 09:30 AM

also will be waiting for a 5.0 crate and how hard it will be to put in a 08-09... Bullitt with a 400hp 5.0.....

**wheeliE-maxx** · 01-01-2010, 09:32 AM

Yeah, they'll only want 7k for it too
