I always wanted to get a R32 and slap a turbo on it.

I'm glad all the Mustang guys have their new toy. I still like the Z better. But I hope everyone enjoys their car as much as I do mine.

I'll probably never buy a Stang myself, but that's certainly only a personal bias. The performance is tremendous for the price, and Ford's build quality has sharply improved in the last five years or so.

Seriously though if i were to sell the Z, it wouldnt be on another mustang. Only because i owned one in the past, and i doubt more HP will convince me to go back. I think right now for me i would be happy with a 135i at or around 450wheel. For the price range i cant think of anything else new i would rather have, ok maybe STI/EVO but the interiors are worse than the stang lol. If I was buying used give me a 996tt or a 997tt

The STI and espcially the EVO's now cost a bit more than a basic 'stang GT.

LOL...when you're ready go to HPAmotorsports. These guys are the experts on that car.. They put a Euro VR6 (essentially an r32 motor) into my buddies Audi TT and built it to over 700 AWD horsepower...Stunning!

Mullaly is awesome. Ford has been up in the top five on the reliability and quality charts since he came on. It always gives me a chuckle when Pharmacist comes in to try to tell me that Ford is less reliable than Nissan when Ford is consistently ranked higher.

Build quality on this car is as good if not better in some areas than the 370 is. Both are very, very solid cars.

YouTube - Audi TT extreme sound 3.2 twinturbo Gottzilla!!!!

Some day.

^ lol i had a hard on for stage 3 R32 back in the day. I think the TT build sounds fun.. but im not really a fan of any body style before the current. Now do that to an older audi turbo quattro coupe and id be all over it!

m4a1mustang · 09-08-2010, 02:43 PM

I always liked the first gen TT. My ex almost bought a yellow '04 TT Quattro 3.2... it was pretty cool.
