I have always been a import fan, but the video of the 2006 mustang shelby (see below) honestly takes my breath away. I am thinking that it may be my next car. Does anyone know how much?? I have heard high 30s low 40s, but I am not to sure. Sorry guys 450hp/450tq, and brembo brakes makes me want to go domestic.

its probably the cheapest car for with that much hp, but for the 40k range, i'd rather have the whole package. I'd rather get a g35 or a used M3. With those cars, you get looks, luxury, and speed.

I have always been a firm import fan from birth. American cars are ugly and bulky. The import scene is hotter anyway.

It's unfortunately still a FORD. My neighbor has a new mustang. I laugh every time it gets towed to the shop. I'm serious! They average every other to every 3rd month. I don't understand why she keeps that POS. Our civics are just humming away the miles...

i am getting a new stang for my next car with out a doubt. im sick of imports and the whole car scene. too many bandwagoneers the last few years and it gives us "tuners" a bad rep. not to say my civic is the ****, but i hate the youngens with the loud exhausts and gaudy kits. i drove 3 new stangs....a stock gt, stage one roush and a stage 3 roush (not yet in production). the stage one and three were on an open track and they are an incredible machine. if i get one, ill drop the money on a stage 2 roush cause i can get a good deal. my buddy is a top dude at roush racing in NC and has some hookups. i support the domestic and the imports....i just dont like the import scene anymore. plus i love the old stangs...my pops has a 66 hardtop....so i really like the styling of the new ones and the interiors are hot...imo.
