i dont know about the shock tower issue, but the 07 stangs have a stiffer chassis than the 05/06, because ford decided to add extra welds, and thicker metal to certain areas of the unibody. the 07 also weighs more than an 05/06 (about 40 lbs, IIRC)

Not only the $3500 incentive but somehow the 07's will get you higher APR if you are financing through Ford Motor Credit, so the difference can be around 5 grand all together. That's the main reason why I just bought an 06 model, but I had to settle down with an auto because that's all they had left. I didn't wanna pay 5 grand more just to have a stick, when technically the auto should be more expensive. I'm still loving it tho. The 06's and 07's have very minor differences, nothing that I would lose my head over, and the way I see it, the 5 grand can buy me a roushcharger.Hello stang brothers,
Ford has incentives for both new '07 and '06 stang GTs..
the '06 has about $3500 more incentive over the '07.
I was wondering if the '07 model is so much better improved that its worth it to get the '07?
$3500 i can save for wheels/tires/suspension....
thanks....
this is interesting info.
did ford confirm this?
does this make the '07 a better riding car?
In the 07's the traction loc rear is a $100 option, it's std in the 05-06 GT's. I assume this was a "fix" for the rear axle moan at low speed cornering. My 06 moans everytime I turn a corner, but I can live with it. Can't do without the traction though with a pegleg rear.
I'm starting to wonder if Ford actually put 4 oz of XL-3 into the gear oil at the factory? If 2 oz quieted it down somewhat, another 2 oz should do the trick.
