My guess is that it's called the 1000 because it blends in with the other 1000 Mustangs seen in a daily North American commute.
Definitely a sleeper, i'll give you that.

200,000 dollar mustang. I think i'll pass. lol

LOL @ "future Barrett-Jackson car"
Some moron will buy one, store it for 50 years and then sell it for the inflation adjusted equivalent of $150,000.
At which time your average Subaru STI will be putting over 1000 hp to the wheels.

so 1000 stands for 950?
I used to love mustangs. Now I know better.

4.95L = 5.0L, 950hp = 1000hp. Close enough right

I guess if you factor in the "race fuel" then it's actually pulling over 1000 HP according to the article.
I personally wouldn't get one even if I had the money.

I'd dump that 200k into a brand new WRX STI if I had the money... Nothing like showing people what's up with no more than 4 cylinders...

So you can run neck and neck with a Mustang V6 and get blown away but a Mustang GT?Originally posted by heavyfuel

That said I would never shell out this kind of money for a Mustang. The 2013 GT500's with 650HP will probably be nearly as fast and substancially less money.

$150k? For that? No thanks.
I hate to finally type this, but for $50k less, you should just buy a GT-R and smoke everyone.

Girlfriends cost money
Turbos cost money
Both make whining noises
Make the smart choice.

it's 150k on top of the cost of the gt500 you need to supply for the mods!

1100-950 is 150 hp
why is the quote "They also upgrade the wheels, tires, bodykit, suspension and rear end to go along with the new-found 300-450 horsepower."

650hp is stock trim shelby...Originally posted by ricosuave

Lol, didn't even notice that. At $150k including car I of course considered it, but at $200k, not even onceOriginally posted by dirtsniffer

Not from Ford in 2012. Is that the super-snake you are referring to?Originally posted by ercchry

The 2013 has 650hp.
This is for Ford fans, not car guys. Like any other overpriced model of a specific make. For the 200G's you can't get much in 1000hp trim, but it's not like it can put it down. The 2012's have a hard time putting 550 down. First mod for most 2010-2012 shelby owners...rims and tires.
This is similar to the lingenfelter camaros...cool, but you have to like the car an awful lot to spend the dough.
Save 50G's and buy a low-mile GT supercar. Then spend the other 50G on a new 2013 302 LS.

^ Fuck that shit. I thought it was $150k for a turn key car.Originally posted by schocker

No way in hell....
"So honey, what did you do with the $200k you remortgaged the house with?"
" Oh I bought a Mustang...... but its really fast & rare though!!!"
"I want a divorce"
Yeah and have the car last two months before it explodes. Money well spent for sure.Originally posted by heavyfuel

since this car is not released yet i can only assume the writer is stupid and kept writing 2012 instead of 2013Originally posted by Revhard

I thought the same. Gotta love accuracy though. I bet they sell 300 of these, easy. So many guys paid top dollar for KR's, and supersnakes. I wonder what the warranty is? Are they using a big 3.6L or what?Originally posted by ercchry

Can you explain the difference to me? Ford makes cars therefore is out of the realm of possibility that you can be a Ford fan and a car guy? I'm not a fan of that car myself but I'm also not a fan of blanket statements.Originally posted by Revhard
This is for Ford fans, not car guys.
