Maybe it's just bias because I have a 2004 Mach-1, but the newer Mustangs seem kind of "naked" compared to yours because of their lack of hood scoops.

I think the 2005 Mustang is whats killing Thunderbird.The Tang is sharp.

Nothing that a bit of paint can't accomplish. I had the hood scoop from the 2004 GT installed on my 2005. It looks better on the 2005 because it looks lower from the front without the indentation that is one the 2004 hood. ;)

Your car is off topic here.:)
Amazing how, looking at your car and the 25 years newer one, I'd rather have yours. More style, more room, easier to see out of. And there's also the lack of depreciation, but that's not the '05's fault.
That dealer's lot looks just like the one in San Leandro. That is, a bunch of V6 '05's but no GT's.

Make that 35 years newer.
FYI: The dealership is in Vero Beach, FL - pictures were taken 3/13/05. The inflation adjusted cost of my Mach 1 today is $21,000 ($4,082 new).
Yet another $.02 worth from a proud owner of a 1970 Mach 1 351C @
Now I now what's missing - CHROME!

I've never understood the "don't make 'em like they used to crowd." There are reasons to prefer a classic car, but safety, reliability, ride quality, comfort, and handling are not among them. There are modern cars that I avoid because they're junk or not comfortable etc., but the same was true "back in the day" too. On the whole Ford has gotten much better at designing and making cars.

It's all about being in an "exclusive" group. I don't mean wealthy, just where you can say you are special or different or unique. "I liked and owned these cars before you did." "You can't buy these cars anymore so you'll have to look at mine or buy mine." Those with $$$ say it about expensive toys too, but no one ever says it about a 5 year old Camry.
Also, some people just get stuck in their ways and can't change, or can't afford a new car. The same thing happens with musical preferences, fashion, foods, vacation destinations, etc.
