Welcome shaffe.....I hope your time on this site is enjoyable as well as knowledgeable. I am not a Ford fan by any stretch of the imagination, but feel free to post a pic of your mustang so I can see what I am going to flame......lol.

hahah no problem. i figured theird be alot of die hard GM fans on here. i was fortuanate enough to have my dad buy me muy mustang as a gift when he sold one of his 66 442s and the fact hes real close with our ford guy. then he bought his 07 GT and never drove it so i bought it off him. ill get a good pic and post it up. i hope to be around here alot and hopefully own a G8 or G8 ST by next winter

Well.........i can't say it's ugly because I would be lying. Ford have made some nice beasts over the years, no doubt about that. Here in oz their most famous model, the 1971-2 Ford Falcon GTHO phase 3 is now hitting a million bucks at auction..and then there are others ..........from the big 3.

compared to my 04, driveability and fit and finish wise id say about 7.5

performance wise id say for waht it cost id say 8/10

best ET to dates is 13.55@102 on street tires(only mods are a CAI and a falh tuner)

The G8 GT & G8 ST are good choices to have at your disposal. They perform well, look great and the fit/finish is up there. Only ongoing issue seems to be a leaking washer bottle filler neck....let's see if they have fixed it yet on the G8. BTW.......nice stang

Saw that exact model 'stang in Campbelltown ( NSW , AUS) on Saturday. This one was black with 2 broad yellow stripes running along the hood, roof and boot, very impressive. Never seen one over here in the flesh before

Nice Mustang. My coworker has the same thing less the spoiler. I live in Yorkville and work in Aurora. I used to do some plan and traffic impact study review for the City of Darien.

Maybe when we get our G8s we can get a bunch of people to do a cruise night!
