I must be reading a different thread. Most posts are positive and in good spirit. The posts about the price and speculation about future pricing are not negative in my mind. Just good general discussion by passionate people who have a view they wish to share...

You guys seriously have nothing better to do than put shit on a good thing. I really dont get what you think to achieve by putting this car down.

If you believe you can buy a 2015 mustang in 5yrs for $15k..totally ridiculous.

bank1957..please move on past the light comment i made months ago. I dont hold grudges. Im sure you secretly smell your own farts and rate them

This is a Mustang Chat Room. Not shat room. Stop being personal, or the Karma Gods will see you in a negative way with all of your built up angst against those who don't see your way.
But then agian you can't help yourself, can you? :lmao:

People who are buying the new mustang are buying it because they want one .  They won't hold their value because the next model will come out and people will buy that one ,and that's if they keep bringing them in . Going back to a late model monaro cv8 ,take a 2002 it was around 65 grand on the road ,now worth around 20k for a good low mileage one ,but that's  because they were a limited build ,late 2001 to 2005 .  I have been watching the prices and they have come up a little in the last 12 mths by about 2 k .  Who really cares and if you want a new mustang go and buy one and be happy .

 :agree: I'm one of those kids in "toys-r-us"...."I want that one daddy" & I don't give a *#!@ how much it costs nor what it will be worth tomorrow....I just gotta have it !!!!!

Goff,
I agree with you.
 I'm not interested in what mine will be worth in 5 years, I just want one..
I just can't wait, the 12 months for it.

Just found out to day the Mustang I ordered about 6 weeks ago in what they said was the second batch want be here until July next year :cry: Some thing about they only allocated 300 cars for the second batch but had over 2000 orders. Was meant to be in first 1/4 of next year but now third 1/4. Oh well.

Hmm - checking mine now

Question (and sorry if it is already been asked), for the 2015/6 models

 - Shelby GT - kits that is sold via Shelby in the US and Mustang Motor sport here (circa 45k with no performance changes)
 - Shelby GT350 - sold via Ford (US only)

So, does that mean that for the GT350, Shelby licenced it all out to Ford rather than do it themselves - given a different motor etc, assume they just licenced the name?

cheers

Hi Greg, it will be best to discuss this further with Craig or Albert from Mustang Motorsport as they are Shelby authorised dealers within Australia.

Here's a link to a piece on the 2015 Shelby GT as published in Mustang 360. Not too sure about the guy's wheel grip style as shown in one of the vids. Love that sound though.

What hp rating does the stock gearbox have?

If a supercharger were bolted on, What would be the necessary upgrades required to suite 650-750hp
