Yes..I know the colour. Wouldn't mind seing a pic side by side. BTW, I used to live in Nepean.

I think Ford rushed out the 2010 to compete with the other two.

I really don't like the 2010 compared to the other +05 models. I am a HUGE fan of the front grill on my stang, and I do not like what was done for the 2010 model - this is why I actually bought the 09 instead of the 10. The exterior as a whole I think has lost the "Muscle Car" look that the +05 had IMO. I have also heard though that the handling is the best so far and the interior I think actually looks a bit better. However I love the look on my 09 compared to it.

I think it is funny reading post about the '05+ guys comparing the current model to the 2010 model.Reminds me of the SN95 to new edge discussions LOL!I remember reading how a lot of guys didn't like the new edge stang cause it was to aggressive looking compared to the nice rounded sporty look of the SN95,the rear was sharp,and triangular like,and stuff,it was going to give the mustang a whole new out look on what people thought about them....ects LOL!
Not knocking anyone here at all,just brings back memories of what i use to read on the boards,and magazines.It's funny how times never change.

I think the 2010 mustang will bring in a new group of mustang buyers. I bought a +05 mustang because it reminded me of the mustangs of my youth. The 2010 does not. If I had the cash in my hand and was to choose one of the three offerings, the 2010 would not get my $s. After saying that, if I had the choice of the three current offerings and a +05 mustang, I would choose the +05 because that was what I was looking for. I also wanted/needed two other things. Sidepipes which I have and Cragar ss ..which should be on soon.

Piping noise into the cabin is just silly.

I think folks are just reaffirming their purchases. It is normal. I assume you had some rational for buying/keeping your 2003 gt or you would have changed or sold.

I am sure those that buy the 2010+ will be very happy with their purchases.

No harm is intended at all with my comment for anyone with the '05 to '09.No need to defend themselves at all,it was just a harmless observation.That is it.
To make a short story on my '03 GT,i wanted a new stang,i was a hardcore foxbody stang guy,but really liked the '01 to '04 styling,had this big picture of what i wanted,so i bought her new,and i am almost there on how i want her,i plan to keep her as long as i can within my control.Do not feel the need to sell her to update or to have the next thing.I'm a hot rodder,and that is what i am doing with her,hot rodding her.I never look at the next model as a threat,more like an improvement,which they are in every performance aspect thus far.Sure Ford has the hit miss with every new mustang design that doesn't please everyone....but that is a good thing,and makes this world go round.
So again,it was an observation,that is all,nothing more.

I give the 2010's a 9 out of 10
Ford really needs to up the anti on the engine
They shoud slap at least a 5.0L in it and replace the 4.6 or at least offer it as an optional motor at a reasonal price...
Everything else I think is a nice step up from 05-09...Styling was played out with that style and the sharper edges and overal fresh appearence inside and out, is awesome...Looks meaner...And all the reviews say the handling and power to wieght ration is excellent and is only a few tenths behind the big camaro which is a lot heavier and has a much larger displacement...I say way to go Ford, but lets go with something with a bit more output next time around!
Oh, and unless they made the interior (driver area) more spacious, I will have to choice but to stick with my 2004 as I am 6"5 and could absolutely not fit in the 05-09...Knees were up level with the gauges and could basically not even fit my legs down under to operate the pedals...I dont have that issue at all with my 04...
