Given the GTO's absence for over 3 decades the back orders on such a great legacy car should have exceeded it's annual 18K projection ie 05 Mustang has projected annual sales in excess of 100K with more than 10K soft orders on the books already!! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Just another point here Glenn...
Ford sold over 153,000 Mustangs in 2003, so only projecting sales of over 100,000 in 2005 is potentially a drop in sales.
Of course, how many of those Mustangs have 350 HP V8's?
How many have 6 cylinder powerplants?
Betcha more 6 cylinders are built than 350 HP V8's... Who cares how many of the schoolmarm's buy a 6 banger.
We're talking V8 RWD performance cars here.
