Thking bout a new ride.

[re-rx7]

A new 2014 5.0. The plan is to get a base 6spd car with recaros and track pack the add a Ford Rcing supercharger. The rebates and me buying it on D plan would put me where iam now payment wise.

The question is do this or wait for the 2015?

[blownaltered]

It won't matter you will still be slow

[BERT]

Buy a corvette!!!!!!!

[re-rx7]

If I bought a crovette then I would be gay like all of you GM guys. I know with a SC i couldnt outrun a base c6. LOL

DO IT! I just did and my payments are pretty close to what I was paying for my 2011...And I got Track pack and im in love with my 3.73's!!!

I say save more and get a 2015. That way you'll have lower payments and the new platform. I don't particularly care for Taurus front end but, the rest of the car is tits.

[Pat McCrotch]

Sell everything you have, everything your brother has, and buy a Shelby.

You couldnt, thats why you should buy a Vette and stop wasting your money on 5.slows.

Yea damn C6's. Oh wait i drug one in my car with 20's! ROFL!

[Soulowd]

You will have a long line ahead of you to get the 2015 and you will be paying full sticker. They won't negotiate on it while it's brand new. Your right in thinking about a 2014. You can get a sick deal

This is true. The car im looking at is 36820. Invoice is 34,400. D Plan knocks that dows to 33000. With rebates Im at 29500.

THe other choice is a base 6spd with SC.

[Stone]

I'd save your money, and wait til the 2nd quarter of 2015. Ford always adds a bunch of rebates the quarter AFTER a model comes out. The 15 will be lighter than the current model, so you'll get more out of your power.

Well then all 5.0s are slow.

[Crimson600+HP]

I love the next gen Mustang, but I would stay away from any first run product from Ford. Give them a couple years to fix the bugs before you go with a 2015+ Mustang. This is my opinion & also why I have a 2013 instead of a 2011-2012.

Long story short, I'd keep your car until the 2016-2017 Mustang model year comes out. Gives Ford time to fix the problems and release some special editions.

Almost $37k for a base track pack manual?

Edit: Never mind. Just built one. That's insane

[Zeek]

I paid 27.5k for my 2013 new. Base with 3.55 option.

[re-rx7]

Yea this one has reverse sensors for and xtra 800. Stupid. Yea track pack recaros add an xtra 4k. With rebates I can get it down to 29.

I can also get a base down to 24k and use the other on a frpp supercharger with warranty.

[Dominic Toretto]

Im not to wild about getting the first model year anything.

Only GM cars break. Why are you concerned about about a Mustang having build quality issues? :P

-Alex

[DallasGator]

Reverse sensors seemed stupid until I got them for free on my 2013. God does it help in tight parking garages. I have to back up to within 5 inches of the wall so that my nose doesn't stick out. They sure help.

[STROKD]

He drug me :(

And now look what you drive... youre welcome. ;)

[NAVAG]

New new generation of mustangs is starting to grow on me. I'll wait a couple of years after it comes out for Ford to work out some of the bugs.

[kirbster]

I've been looking myself. The deals are pretty good right now. Wondering when they'll get about as good as they'll get. I think the last batch of 14s will be built in June.

You can play the waiting game but the reason the rebates are going to get bigger is because what's left is the shit nobody wants.

I liked the suggestion of finding a Shelby if you are willing to mod it, 700+WHP without much work.

Are you trolling or just fucking around. There are a lot of V's in Dallas making mid 700 hp without that much work done to them. It's literally heads, cam, pulleys, long tubes, ported throttle body and a tune away. It's not that much work and the motors seem to hold it fine.

Heads and cam swap is very easy on a lsx, unlike a mod motor... and there is actually pwr in aftermarket heads and cam. no one does aftermarket heads ona shelby, and cams are sort of a joke for a mod motor too (price per hp gain).

Heads and cam in a V are cheap compared to the turd you drive. Some people like to do a cam swap for the sound as well. I would rather spend the money on one cam vs the 4 in your car. $300 > $1200 any day of the week. Don't even get me started on what the labor is for the mustang to do a head/ cam swap.

Yea mod motor is so hard. I did cams in a honda DOHC pretty simple. Same basic design.

Turd huh. Well if that LS is so superior and the engine is bigger...why does the shelby make the same power without heads and cam(s). Also the 5.0 makes way more power then the 5.3. The 5.8 makes more then the 6.2. Meh

Yeah, and it's at the limits at 700. The rods are very, very questionable in the GT500.

The motor is barely bigger. Your argument is weak and you're just trolling and not very well I might add.

[re-rx7]

Against their comp they arent slow. As too your question on vettes and such thats simple. Weight and Aero.

.4 liter bigger or 30 cubic inches. 800 seems to be the limit on the GT500 rods. For what heads and cam cost you could buy a nice set of rods and have them installed. Heads arent cheap at all. The motor is bigger and the V and the ZR1 make less Hp.

Somebody changed my original statement from GT500 to a CTS-V so I was just fucking around. I don't know what a CTS-V cost to mod but figured it wouldn't be as much as a house, even a shitty one built by trolls.

LOL, you make it sound like swapping rods is as easy or cheap as changing the oil.

You're wrong about those rods limits, but it's whatever. Your mind is made up, I'm not going to continue to attempt to convince you. We'll just agree to disagree.

I understand this is most likely the most expensive car you have probably ever bought since you came from imports. Therefor you are going to argue this subject to death in order to justify your purchase. It's not necessary to be honest. You chose the car you liked and now you're rolling with it. That's cool, nothing wrong with it. But by attacking others for liking something other than what you are fiercely loyal to and arguing small details such as .4 difference in motor sizes shows you have some insecurity about what you bought.

[re-rx7]

My Evo actually cost more then the stang Mr.Pompous ass. No, I just get tired of hearing how great Ls engines are when ford produces engines that do just as well. I argue these point becuase yall act like there is no better engine than GM's.

Get over it. We are blessed to live in a time where great cars are being made by many automakers having more choices than ever. This isnt the 50s or 60s when one factory is clearly dominant over another. If everyone drove the same car it would be boring. Ive had over a dozen Mustangs, I still have two. So what if my 5.0 is for sale, im sure i will have another stang at some point, especially if Ford does another Mach/Boss. But as a car guy in this current state of the hobby it would be a crime not to experience what other automakers have to offer. Just because the Mustang isnt the fastest thing on the road doesnt mean its not a cool car because it is. Its an excellent entry level American sports car. So you dont need to justify or argue every little point to justify your purchase. Its your car, what is important is that YOU are happy with it. All the other talk is just fun, friendly car rivalry stuff. Dont take it so seriously.

I can agree with this. Im not sure what to get next. Im leaning toward a Boss 302 or a new base 14 with SC.

[STROKD]

Rx, what Steve and I are grtting at is MODDING the shit out of the cars, the LS motors hold up better...

[Grandpa]

If those are your only two options you are considering i would definetely say the Boss all the way. You can boost it later and it can make way more than your standard 5.0 and you also wouldnt need to concern yourself with 1st year build issues.

The only way I could SC it is if i buy new from ford. I really like the Idea the only drawback would be it being a base car. I know you gys know quite a bit about SC's. How does the FRPP Blower do? If it sucks then I might as well get a premium brembo/recaro car.

The FRPP blower is the same as the Whipple which as im sure as you know works quite well.

I'd wait until at least the 2015 is released with all the details.. I think ford is holding back a horsepower bump.. and if they are and you still want a 2014 the price will drop.. If not them get in line for a 2015.. now let me strap my armor and jump into this battle going on here. Just kidding. I think what happened is one day Steve got those giant black plastic wrap around sun glasses in the mail and it came with a discount coupon for a caddy and early bird dinner at Dennys!!! Honestly I think you all know I prefer ford and don't trust GM "engineering" but something about the newest cts-v. . It's just cool you can't deny it!! And of course mustangs don't respond well to heads and cams, they don't need it to adjust duration like and old school motor does and due to head design lift is almost maxed out. As for modding the cts-v vs shelby... I'm not even gonna go into that, I own neither but I have seen 700 hp pretty easy in both
