The November issue of MT has some early performance test data on the '05
Mustang GT: 13.6 secs @ 99 in the quarter, 5.1 secs 0-60.  Oh yeah, almost
forgot...that's with an AUTOMATIC!  They attributed the low trap speed to
the fact that the auto shifted into 4th (O/D gear) before the end of the
quarter.  They estimate from their testing that the manual will be low 13s
and 0-60 under 5 seconds.  All that plus better handling and build quality
(something else MT pointed out was how well it was put together) for only
$25K MSRP.
