Nice, I really like the look of the newer model muscle cars. Raf and I are eyeing a new Dodge Challenger as our next car. I wouldn't mind an old one myself . We are just hesitant right now since they might be going bankrupt . My dream car: 1970-72 black Chevy Chevelle SS. Ooooooo mama.

Yes and no. I have one, but its a clone and not even mustang guys can tell it apart from a real one. The only way you can tell its a clone is because it gets driven.

They use their mustang dyno mostly for tuning and for that reason it always givest lower numbers. dyno'd at 301RWHP 315TQ, based on the mods I expect it would be consistent with what everyone else gets with their cars, around 315RWHP/315TQ +/-. Now if I do the exhaust...........well that will help, currently factory exhaust on the car.

Actually that is about as mild as they come, designed by Ford. No springs required, 1mm more lift and valves open a little longer is all. Could have went more agressive but the drivablity goes down and I do not intend on taking it to the track that much so every last bit of HP is not that important to me.

Much more lopey than the 67'-70' mustangs. Ford has done really well since they went with the retro look in 2005, suprising GM and Crysler took so long to introduce comparable cars. Gotta love the marketing of that HEMI - most people do not even know what it means or that essentially all modern engines use this technology.
