I am not a Mustang Fan, but the 05 Stang has me thinking...

300hp V8 car with great styling and an awesome interior... for less than $30,000!!!

What are your opinions of the car?

Thanks for the link, after reading that article, the 1000 watt stereo is pretty cool. After all the options (which ofcourse I would have to get) the car would be around $35k or so IMO. Now that's G35C territory...

Don't let wattage fool you. It won't be a 1000 watt stereo. It may be a 1000 peak watts with a lot noise, but the stereo in that car wouldn't come close to a nice aftermarket ~200watt clean powered stereo.

i have mixed feeling... i like it but i don't love it and for 35000 i should love it...i love the look of the current 03-04 cobras and you could get a left over 04 cobra for less than 35k right?, what does the 05 cobra look like..?

I think its great.. but why the hell do they have to put old cheap looking lights on it? they could have designed some hid projection lights in there and still made them look classic "mustang" ish

Yeah I have the Mach 460 in my 2000 GT and it seriously blows. 460 watts my arse ! I bet the 1000 puts out 300 at most.
