Why not upgrade to the Cobra ? I have always enjoyed the mustangs for what they are, true muscle cars. In my eyes there is not better mustang than the Cobra, and as suggest if you are going to purchase a mustang I would say just go for the cobra. Its a common saying, “go big or go home” and this would apply to this situation. For some extra money you will enjoy the best mustang out there, if you divide the extra amount of money spent and divide it in years of enjoyment you have a bargain when you get a cobra. Also the car will eventually become a classic so there is no reason to sell it ever at all in future years. Cobra is the way to go when it comes to mustangs.
The import scene usually is categorized by adding body kits to their vehicles. But now it is becoming more usual for muscle cars to wear some sort of body kit or lip kit. For the new mustang there are some really nice body kits out there, they make the car get a lower stance and more aggressive look. In my opinion a good idea.
Recently I saw the 2010 mustang on a show room, the car comes with some different body lines and I would have to say it seems to have a better fit and finish. Overall it keeps its retro look and it is very similar to the previous models starting on 05 but it has a new twist to it, that in my eyes seems to make it more sporty.
New turbo hype in V8 engines.
As part of the import scene , Honda, nissan, toyota. Turbos have played a big role, usually small displacement set ups are transformed into HP monsters by adding a single turbo set up. The engines particularly in Honda, are only 4cylinders and very easy to work on. Puttina turbo on those cars its pretty much easy. Well V8 might take a bit longer to actually achieve a nice turbo set up , but once you achieve it there is nothing that will compare to the power output that is possible. More and more people are going turbo and if you have the money and time to do it, definately is the way to go.
For V8 Engines , because of the lay out and power output the best way to go to add serious power would be a supercharger. A supercharger works by using the force of the engine to drive its blowers and create forced induction. Given the fact that big displacement engines have a lot of force and spinning the supercharger would not be a problem.
