Definitely a good time for the hobbiest looking to upgrade,or for the new kid on the block wanting a good muscle car!!Keep it up Ford!!
Just sucks for a guy like me with a little 4.6 2V that only makes 300 flywheel hp after modding LOL!

Is there an echo in here? Hey SNAKEBITE - why should your wife have to lower herself to drive, oops, sorry, park a run of the mill GT? I figured the logical companion to your Shelby would be a Shelby convertible minimum!!!

400+ hp eh? Time to start cashing in the empties..... I knew that savings plan would pay off someday.

Actually you are right. Just tonight we were talking about picking up 2 more Shelby's. She wants the GrabberBlue and maybe I will pickup a Kona Blue. Her idea not mine. Of coarse I will keep the 09 as I have to much time and energy into the 09. She does not want as you said a run of the mill gt. What have I done to her?

What is wrong with the run of the mill GT's.They are next in line to the V6 stangs for Fords bread and butter for the performance end of things??
I personnally prefer a GT,they are like the perfect sleeper if you will.Still can be a stout car for the performance guy at heart,and doesn't have to worry about ruinning a special edition stang when building one up,and leave it for those that prefer to let them sit.Mind you,special edition or not,i would still mod the hell of it LOL!As much as i love my stang,it's still a piece of tin on four rubber tires when it comes down to it.

Mr Sarnia again causing crap, go figure. He was the one that used the "run of the mill" statement first. I am just humouring him as he would expect

Don't think it's a pushrod but not 100% sure-99% though
