Just got back home from test driving another z before I make my decision.

I think it's obvious with my prior collection that I'm an american muscle fan, but even I'd say that's being a little generous. I'd go 70 at best.

I'll revise and say 75%. The gauges are horrid and the air vents are still el cheapo. But the seats are nice.

Lol, alright, I'll compromise with you at 75. I do bow to all the stuff you can add to a mustang straight from the factory. If anyone wants to see a shit-load of options, go to the ford site and build a stang.

A buddy of mine just bought an 09 Mustang. The cheapness of the parts & amounts available was sickening, haha.

I liked it a lot. It was the only GT I've been in that made me care about Mustangs.

I try to be open-minded, but other than a nice modded one, I never pay attention.

To each their own.

You can add an FRPP blower at purchase and have around 450 warrantied rear-wheel-ponies.

Which brings up another important point for all of us Z guys: You see a new GT and think, "haha, easy pick'ns" only to find out they are factory supercharged.
