[QUOTE="prez1967, post: 2367450, member: 3028"] i have not yet driven the new car however i do have some reservations about it. Its the mechanicals that were changed that concern me the most. When i picked up my BMW 330Ci i was excited to see what a hydro clutch and Drive-by-wire throttle would do for responsiveness. They were both a HUGE disspointment in the 330. The delay in the DBW is horrible and the hydro clutch feels somewhat vague. I hear that the throttle butterfly in the 05 Mustang shuts everytime the clutch is pressed in?!>?!?! Does the traction control system shut completely off at least? (it does not in my 330) Also, the shifter in the 05s that i've sat in feel like they suffer from the usual linkage issues that BMWs have had. I wonder how long it will take the Mustang aftermarket to come up with a design that feels like the shifters from Rogue and UUC. I'd love to take an 05 for a spin but in all honesty... when i sell the 330, i think i'm going to look into an 03-04 Cobra to park alongside my two Foxes... [/QUOTE]
