So, I got a new toy recently; needless to say I'm very pleased! Very Happy

The V8 sounds great. I'm still running it in, but the power delivery feels good and pulls nicely. It's a huge car, but the suspension setup on the new Mustangs feels much more confidence inspiring than the previous versions.

Good lord!

I imagine they would be very nice now then.

So, let me get this right, it will go round a corner without putting the horizon at an odd angle?

Nice looking modern stang!

I'm so glad u have a big V8 in it and not one of those crappy wank Ecoboost 2.3's that they have the nerve to fit in the new models.

What are these like on fuel?

Fuel consumption isn't too bad. I usually see about 20mpg with a mixture of town driving, country roads and motorway.

And there's the proof you have no experience at all. Didn't exist in 99 and you practically didn't either.

Well it would have been once he'd tried to change a set of spark plugs!

V7 Mustangs aren't cool! Wink

IIRC the rather yummy sales woman dealing with my new order (of another ford model) said they are actually slightly less than the new RS focus, I know what I'd rather Shocked

I did some decent mileage in the 2011 V6 model and it was fun to drive, nice noise and much lighter compared to the Dodge
Charger I'd driven for the 2 weeks prior. I just swapped cars in vegas because I wanted a soft top for a while. Laughing

I've seen a few around. They look good in some colours, and IMO look better with the black wheels. Yellow with black wheels looks great I think.
