<font color='#000000'>This may be what the new Ford Mustang looks like. I think it looks good. Looks like all the future ford sportscars are going to be retro. We have the Ford GT(GT40), the new Thunderbird, and now this. I think its a step in the right direction. I think the current mustang looks alright, but it looks nothing like the older stangs. This ones much better. The GT is sopposed to have around 400hp, so i cannot imagine what the cobra will have. All i can say is watch out Corvette. Lets just hope ford doesnt f**k up this concept.

<font color='#0000FF'>i read about it in car and driver....Looks pretty good to me. &nbsp;Looks a little too futurey though but with that hp I could deal with it. &nbsp;BTW sean youre right on. &nbsp;It said that Ford is trying to differentiate itself from japanese competitors and make american cars look american again.</font>

<font color='#000000'>I have'nt seen the new GTO, but it probly looks like the Holden Monaro that is currently made in Australia. If not, it will share the engine and drivetrain. I say this because the Monaro is a GTO. They are both the same car, but i think they will change the look of the car before it hits the US. I didnt think much of the Monaro untill i saw a 24hour endurance race in australia, and the Monaro was kicking ass. By the way, this is a Monaro.

<font color='#000F22'>The GTO is no longer a &quot;concept.&quot; &nbsp;It will be sold in the US starting September of this year. &nbsp;It will basically look like the car in the picture except w/ a grand prix-style front end. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.illstreet.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

ls1 v8, rear drive, w/ a 6 speed option. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'></font>

<font color='#000000'>Yep, they didnt change much. For some reason i just cant see that car having a V8. It doesnt look intimidating enough, but i know it can be fast. The ricers will never knew what hit them when they get destroyed by this thing. I wonder what the sticker price is on the GTO, The Monaro is like 50k in australia fully loaded.</font>

<font color='#000F22'>50k in australian dollars is about 25k here.

in us dollars, the GTO will sell in the low 30's i think.</font>

As for the stang, i don't have to many feelings for it.. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> &nbsp; i liked my old 94 &nbsp; id drive it tho with 400 horse.

now the GTO? &nbsp;that thing is beautiful. &nbsp;Id drive that thing in a heart beat. &nbsp;What chassis platform does it use? the typical F body ?? &nbsp;I wonder how it will handel. &nbsp;It needs a bullet proof IDRS setup, and id defaintly have one <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'></font>

<font color='#000F22'>As said above.. it's based on the Australian made Holden Monaro platform. &nbsp;All new to the US...

IDRS &nbsp;... yes I think it does have it... not sure</font>
