I have to admit that I had mixed feelings when the photos of the 05 first came out. The car did not meet my expectations AT ALL. This all changed today at the NAIAS. I thought the 05 Mustang GT looked great. My only hope is that they make the V-6 look less aggressive so that you can tell them apart on the street (and keep it so that you cannot buy a V-6 that looks like a GT - i.e. a GT Appearance Package - like they have this past year for the V-6). I thought it did not look as good without a hood scoop in the pictures but it is plenty aggressive (especially with stripes up the center of the car). My opinion has changed and it is on my list of "to buy's" in 05.
