I bought this car for my daughter when she turned 16, has almost 100k miles on it then. Now over 182k and 17 years old. Underneath looks as good as the rest of it. And it drives like a new car. If she sells it I'm calling first dibs. :seasix:

Stangs kick arse!!
Got my youngest an Ecoboost when she turned 16, still has it 7 years later, about 85K miles, no major repairs.

She may get a telsa soon, title still in my name, I may make it a project car.

This is a 4.0 V6 with a 5-speed manual. I did have to put a clutch slave cylinder in this but the clutch is original. I've rebuilt the suspension twice. New brake calipers (original rotors) and new parking brake cable. The headlights are hand built by me, Miromoto xenon arc, projection lenses. You won't see those on any other Mustang. Twelve years ago we put in a cat-back dual exhaust with mufflers from a GT, GT sway bars. The car handles badass.

Not a damn thing wrong with the 4.0. Stout bottom end, good torque and well mated to the 4 speed auto or the 5 speed as I just noted this one has. (Ninja edit!)

Plus it was made at the Ford plant in Cologne, Germany. With a dual exhaust and X-pipe, even left-right firing order, flat plane crankshaft, bigger cylinders than the 5.0, sounds Euro-wicked. :seasix:

Yet, but the stock V6 in the Mustang, in 2015, had less HP than the Ecoboost 4, ZI believe Ford stop using the V6 in Stangs around 2017 and offered only the E4 or V8:

2015 Mustang
V6 300 hp / 280 tq
E4 310 hp / 320 tq

The Eco can also get you another 40+ hp with a CAI and tune.

E4 goes 10.9 at 129 mph

I really wanted to like the 04-06 GTO's and wanted it to be my first new car.

But I couldn't warm up to them. The GF said "why do you want one of those silly little things when you have REAL GTO's?

Hell, a new Camry will wax either of my GTO's.

But back in the day, when I was a young man, the GTO's saw plenty of duty

destroying 5.0 Mustangs and Z-28's and Trans Ams.

I'm content to rest on my laurels and keep spouting. The older I get, the better I was.

"If I don't find some bag to latch onto I'm gonna go straight into orbit."

Warren Oates, one of the greatest actors of all time, should have got the Oscar here. Great flick.

There's a Canadan youtuber named DD Speed Shop who has a re-creation of the '55. On the dash in pinstriped painted old-school letters it says 'let's check the valves'. Another says 'check the jets'. His license plate? '3 YARDS'.

The line by James Taylor: "Three yards, mother****er, and you got yourself an auto-mo-bile race'' was his best line in the entire film.

Yep. I had forgotten about that zinger. Or the time he picks up the hippy in the army jacket and starts his spiel and the hippy cuts him off and says "I don't want to hear it, man. It's not my problem." And as you said, authentic in every way. The cars at the strips, the clothes, the music, dead on 1971.

289 is common in older Fords which is what GTO was referring to.

389 is in GTO's Pontiac; which is what Lil Douche was referring to.

Sad day, my daughter sold her "Screaming Yellow" 2005 Mustang today. It has close to 200k on the odometer and ran perfectly. No rust anywhere. Mike's paint job from 7 years ago still looks flawless. Some lucky dude forked over $7k and got a cream puff.

Strats is gone now (RIP) but he mis-interpreted what I stated. I simply pointed out that the new V6 Mustangs can blow the doors off of the '60's Mustangs with 289 V8 engines. I was not comparing them to Pontiac 389's, which would blow the doors off of any Ford of their era. Unless it was a 427 in an AC Cobra.
