What you say may be true in the lower models in the range, but I think you will find that the Shelby flagship model is very, very well built.

5.4L Supercharged V8
402kw @ 4500rpm
0-60mph = 4.2 second

Damn, it just looks so awesome.

I want one.

Can anyone loan me some money?

What makes people say late model Mustang's built quality is poor?

Ford has hurdled many obstacles to achieve top notch reliability/built quality in the past 5-6 years.. The previous 2000-2002 Mustangs we received shouldn't reflect on the new Mustang in any shape or form, they're totally different cars in different era and different approach to quality by different CEO's. It's like comparing an EA to a EF/EL.

I have yet to see an American built car that I could say was quality. Yes I am heavily influenced from my days working at Ford which was during the time of the last Mustang Imports, which were woeful.

But I think this is reflective of the US approach on more than just making cars.

Looks great. IMO it's even better looking that the Ford GT. Regular model looks a bit plain, but this one really beefs it up

I think you'll find those wheels arent really that small, IMO those type of promo shots seem to always look like that. The way the front wheels are turned can make the rear wheels look small as the car can sometimes lean one way.
