I believe the battery is located in the center console.

Mustangs and Challenger owners are probably watching this thread. Mustang owners are wondering twhat Ford's next Mustang trim for the GT will be, while the Challenger owners are still waiting for something new to happen. Although I did catch wind that the Challengers may be offering a convertible.

At least the challengers look good. Slow but looks good to me. The mustang is ugly if you ask me.... Maybe we should all join a mustang forum since they like joining here and telling everyone how much better their mustang is and that the new gt 500 is chuck Norris on wheels and the greatest car ever.

I concur. The challenger does look good. But Chuck Norris has nothing on the new mustang

Agreed. I look at Mustangs as the classic "me too" car. "You have a Mustang? OH! Me too". Paint a turd blue, it's still a turd, now with a 5.0. I will say one thing about the GT500 though, I got handed my place by the owner of one at a car show. I thought I was big shit showing off the goods that I had until the Mustang owner told me he got a Ford "safe tune" and was pushing 756rwhp. I was like....damn, at least I can kick your ass.

Yes, the GN will be going and so will I. It should go low tens. A little fast for you but you're both pretty old with big heavy wallets so I expect a good race. Senior Olympics drag racing we can call it. Let's be real here, you're not ready for me yet!!

Wheres the center console? Can I wax it? Would you recommend NXT, Zaino or Adams to wax my battery.

I look at the GT500 more as the Steven Siegal. All talk, and nothing to show and a faint memory of the past.

It's just so awesome to see these fast builds finally starting to get out and on the tracks. I will bet there are a lot of Mustang and Challenger owners watching this thread...
I think the only thought being rattled around the brains of Ford and Dodge owners is that the Camaro guys either really hate each other or have a sick sense of humor!

Could be that we're all messed up in the head. I know I am. Not by choice.
