He said that he was looking for exclusivity. Much as those Mustangs are rare, you can't really tell the difference between them and a V6 unless you're right up on them. There's very little visual difference to one of the more common performance cars out there.

Drove an M roadster this morning, very nice...searching for the hardtop coupe or maybe the older Clownshoe with the s54 motor.

If this had been a year or two ago I would be running for the first clean Terminator I saw, not a fan of the modern retro look.

If you can wait the next mustang is supposed to be more euro. And the extended the Shelby agreement through 2015 and beyond.

SVT didn't need Shelby, Shelby needed SVT. The 4.6 cast iron DOHC with the eaton s/c was bangin. The most powerful and fastest Stang until the recent 5.0.

Lightly used Cayman or Evora would have the exclusivity.

Can't think of much else that hasn't been mentioned already.

Nice the hear that things paid off. Being in the car market is fun

If I went with a Cayman I'd have to somehow talk the Mrs. into allowing me to get a turbo for it. Cayman = evolution of 911 but Porsche won't admit it.

Yup I would go with the Cayman or the Lotus. I got to ride in a Cayman S at an autocross once and it was pretty awesome
