And good luck getting a Bullitt at anywhere near MSRP. Ford dealers pretty much like to rape the customer. And when a special edition Mustang comes out, watch out! Shelby GT's are going for 50 grand around here. Stupid ass people!

Their Mustang's 0-60 (5.2) was a little slow as Road and Track tested a stock GT at 4.9 while other magazines have recorded GT's at 5.0 and 5.1. Nevertheless, the 13.7 second quarter mile time seems pretty accurate. I like the Shelby but you pay a lot for styling. Just get a base GT and get your own intake/exhaust and then throw on some Eibach components and you'll have likely bettered the Shelby GT for much less.

Yea, give us the Focus RS! I'd love to see Ford directly challenge Evos and STI's in the states.
