2006 Mustang GT-H Hertz Racer

....and would you ever buy one ?

My mate drove one when on Holiday in FL, and said it was absolutely amazing. Whaddya think ?

I love these cars and would love to own one.

BigJimZ28 · 05-16-07, 04:49

as much as I love to see special edition cars

I would NOT call adding 25 Hp a beast!

if you want a beast look into a Cobra or Rousch or build one yourself

sure it will make a nice collector car ..................but a beast? I think not!

Phew! Thank God for that - I was afraid to admit it, just in case it was a "British" thing about American Muscle

Have I heard right that the prices are going sky high due to the rarity of the cars, and the fact that it's amaaaazing ?

The Roush cars are nice rides too. I have a lot of friend's working at Roush. Another Mustang I really like is the Saleen. Mr. Saleen has always made some kick butt cars in my eyes. As much as I like the Hertz car and would love to have the money to throw around to get one, you are basically paying for the name "Shelby". Shelby could take a dump in a Mustang and someone would pay 20 times the actual value of the car for it. LOL Personally I think I like the Roush and Saleens better. Living in the Detroit area for my whole life you see a lot of Roush and Saleens.

Oh, and Roush had this beauty on the roads around town this weekend.

We do get a lot of the appearance packages around here as well and it sucks a bit. But I was behind a real Saleen a few weeks ago and there was no mistaken it. Very nice rides indeed. My father inlaw has a Belle Tire package Mustang. It starts off with a nice shaker hood and intake and then goes to all of this stick on appearance crap. Personally I would of rather bought a stock GT and did the shaker hood and intake myself and left the appearance stuff off.

I personally love the saleens. The extreme is the one to get. It has over 500hp and has the exotic looks to it also and no longer looks like a normal mustang. Pics of the car are nice, but seeing one in person is mouth watering.

A friend of mine has a 07 GT mustang that is orange and he had a supercharger installed and it is fast. I personally think modifying these cars are easy and fun.

I see a couple of roushes around where I live and are sweet looking too.
