    Maybe they will offer an engine upgrade option to the 300 HP SOHC...?

    That was a Crown Vic Sport. Seen the MSRP of $32,7XX wow talk about a slap in the face to the Marauder. When everyone was complaining about the $35,000+ price tag for it. I come to the conclusion Ford rolled up they'er tent and headed for the hills when a little compatition came to they'er door step. If you want Blue Oval power its either a Mudstain or they'er $150,000 Supercar. SRT has or is coming out with 8 SRT models and Chevy has 6 SS models SVT None/Nada/Zip SVT......Compatition
    Accufab 65mm Throttlebody, 4.10 gears, and JDM Flipchip. Finally here.

    In the future: total custom Twin Turbo at 15-18 PSI
    with Intercooler and 2003 Cobra Mustang lower end with Crank,Manley Rods, and 8.5 over1 Pistons.

    14.976 @ 94.8 MPH 03 Marauder stock
    13.028 @ 104.6 MPH 02 Lightning JDM Flipchip,4# lower pulley, and Borla Catback. JLP Ramair, Oilbreather, JLP power pipe
    More to come

    Mark,

    I took my father to the auto show this past weekend. Ford was all about their Shelby, and the Ford GT, neither of which looked cool, nor caught my intrest much. I did get a chance to sit in the new 05 Mustang GT...I believe it was a black one. I actually think they did a nice job with it. Old school interior, decent room (I was on the pax side, never sat driver) nice look. I did see the Crown Vic LX, and that obnoxious sticker price. Say what you will but I don't like crown vics at all...no matter how "sporty" it is. For some reason this MM of mine really fits a very picky part of my personality.
