Z's are few and far between and handle very well. 5.0's are everwhere and as you said a straight axle. Last year there was a Mustang at the cruise that the owner stated was a $100,000 special edition. I didn't see anything special and my car got more attention than his.This was prior to any mods being done. Ultimately it is your choice but for me it would be a no brainer.
100k special edition?:ugh2:

As the saying goes, "to each their own."

FWIW I know of no $100k "Special Edition" Mustangs out there. The owner must have been yanking your chain.
Sure there is. GT500KR

If it had Miata doors, $100k would be a bargain. The doors alone are worth millions.

I think Mustang's are fine cars, but I read somewhere that they'll give your children cancer. Just food for thought.

Their owners also have a habit of sexually abusing people with the initials A.S.

All Hail The Almighty Miata Doors, the only forum meme to be constantly referenced whenever possible.

M4 I guess it was something from Roush but he never had his hood open and I couldn't see any special brakes on it. No stripes either. But I didn't look real close had to keep the kids from dropping thier ice cream in my car as thier mothers chased the escapees. LOL Love cruise nights.

A good buddy of mine moved from a 350z to the 2011 GT500. He loves it- he wanted more power and didn't want the headaches of going FI with the VQ engine. For him it worked out perfectly.

It's a very cost-effective way to get 500+hp reliably (and with a factory warranty).

I'm personally not too crazy about the Shelby kit looks wise but it is very quick.

For me, I think it's a better idea to just grab a sportbike if you need that kind of speed fix... if you aren't tracking the car.

Pretty impressive to have a meme that beats out FF quotes on a car forum, jus sayin

370Z Purist 02-22-2011 11:08 PM
Very resilient meme. Almost as resilient as the doors themselves.

With so many Mustang tuners (Shelby, Saleen, Roush, etc.) I don't see how you could ever stop modding one, although it gives you plenty of options.

If I could afford to do that I would in a heartbeat.
I test drove a 5.0 and man does it haul ***!
The salesman let me do many things others wouldn't have let me done.
12 second stock and 4 seater + trunk.
That's something to think about and I find it impressive they did a comparison with the m3 and the stang held it's ground pretty well against the much more expensive m3.
With boltons + tune you'd be ripping up most cars.
And of course you have to upgrade the suspension.
