... for me to fall in love.

I tried to tell myself that I wouldn't be swayed. I tried to tell myself that it wasn't for me, but I can't keep lying.

I've fallen in love with the girl in the mask.

Yeah. So, I'm pretty sure this just moved up to #1 on my shopping list.

I can't hardly.

Vancouver, so soon. The trip? Just for this.

Well, it's doing a lot of growing on me like the Huayra and the C7 when they first came out. I thought the Evos was pretty good looking after all...

I was in the same camp. Or reservation. I was on the "reserved" reservation.

Now, I'm ready to ride my Mustang into the sunset.

Just don't tell my S197; I don't want any jealous fights.

I'm with you, I stared at it for a solid day and all of a sudden I realized that I freaking love it.

On the "plus" side my Stang is no more so maybe one of these will find its way into my life sooner rather than later.

I'll second that. It is even more stunning in person. It's been really hard to keep quiet about how awesome this thing was going to be.

i like this! I saw this current gen mustang on the road this morning. I realized how comically stupid the rear tail-lights look like. Even the 2005-2010 version look better than it.

Slideshow ran all night; every good to high quality picture of the S550 I could find. The dreams, they were good.

You too, hay?

Mine says I have to lose the current pony, though. And that a second, more inexpensive family hauler has to be on the list too.

I'm okay with this.

CTS-V; all in one VS S550 & Blah; dad gets his and the family moves too.

I don't understand what you're trying to say?

What's your story, morning glory?

I want to know the rest of the story behind that comment.

WHO? HOW?

My pony is. My wife says, "One for the other."

I'm good with that.

Well technically she called the next Mustang

Also technically she had the next Mustang - An '01 GT auto - for about a week.

So technically I get the next Mustang

She's also relenting on her "we must have an automatic in the stable" rule, which makes me an incredibly happy husband

eh I wasn't 100% editting my post at this morning.... that post made no sense....the current gen mustangs look stupid to me. this one actually looks like a well put together car.

The original response should have read:

"I like this mustang! I saw the current mustang on the road this morning and realized how comically stupid the rear tail-lights look like. Even the 05-10 generation looked better than the current one"

just a little better ;)

I work for Ford. I've been lucky enough to see the pre-production (but very complete) prototypes since this summer.
