Maybe some aftermarket companies. But the news I've heard is Saleen may no longer own his company. And depending on the different offerings from Ford. There may not be as any tuners as before.

HAHAHAHA, classic
Thats great man, mmmm, mustang ****.
I don't think any excuse in the world could suffice as an answer to the question of WHERE IS THE 6 SPEED? When Acura can make the RSX, TSX, and TL all available with 6 speeds, Nissan puts a 6 speed in the 350Z, Toyota has a 6 speed Celica, and EVEN VOLKSWAGEN has a 6 speed BEETLE, then what the hell, why can't ford put a 6 speed in a 300hp mustang? And what's up with the max HP being at 6,000 rpm? ....isn't that almost at the red?

That's right around where the 4v's max power is, so I don't see that big of a deal.
I can't answer on the 6sp though, doesn't really bother me that much, then again I've only riden in 6sp cars and not driven one.
I'd love to have a 6 speed, but other than the novelty of it, what's the big deal? The TKO, while a bit notchy, is a nearly indestructible transmission, and also, I think unless the T56 is orderd a certain way, it actually has the same or very close final drive ratio.
So what if it's only a 5 speed...banging gears is banging gears.

Is the only difference in engine design the 3 valve heads? If so, could any current 2V swap heads/cams/intake to the 3V design and pick up monster horse?

I am exactly the opposite. I hate the front. The rear.....well its ok
When is ford going to wake up and smell the coffee. I've owned 2 different LS1 camaro's in the last 5 years. First off they to make the 6-speed standard oe atleast optional for the GT. Second of all, 300HP is going to cut it. I hope these aren't the final spec's for the GT Yes the F-bodies are gone, but the GTO is here to stay and weve already read in many mag that it's running mid 13. I traded my camaro in for one of these new mustang, but now I'm not sure. The GTO is 5-10 thousand more, but it also comes with a full warranty that I'm not going to blow trying to make the mustang as fast as it. It also come with 6-speed option. I was also running 13.0's in my ls1 camaro with lid and exhaust work. It going to take alot more than that to make this GT that fast. Thanks for listening to the new, but this just pisses me off and regretting selling my camaro

You obviously didn't do your research. If you don't like the new GT's dont get one. Why would you get a car and then decide it doesnt meet up to your expectations. Didn't you test drive one before you traded it in? If you didnt know what it takes to get a new mustang to the 13.0's why not pick up a Magazine and find out before you get a car and then say you dont like it.Knexo said:

Apples to oranges -- the GTO retails for $33,495, that's Cobra territory, not GT territory. And the Cobra will make very short work of a GTO.

Your right the Cobra will make short work of a GTO. I'm not arguing that point. But a new cobra from what I've read aroud here is going to be atleast 37-38 and thats not GTO range. I'm still waiting to see what the price increase is going to be for a 05GT. If it comes out at the same price thats great, but then give us the option of getting a 6-speed for a price. I'll be more than happy to pay it, then deal with all the problems current 3650 owner have.
I meant I traded it in on a new 05GT,not a current one. I figured with 3v heads and hopefully a 6-speed it would run mid 13's. Then use simple bolt-ons to get low 13's. I don't consider 6-8 hours for long tubes a simple bolt-on.

i think it looks great, except for the bulbous hood...the classics always had very flat hoods, even up until now the hood hasnt had that much of a 'mound' look to it...hmm a few tweaks here and there and its sweeeet
