This seems to be a time where previous biases are falling. This is my first American car in over 30 years. BTW the interior in the 2013 Mustang is much better than the 2012. I had a 2012 for a week...

I am considerably older than you. It didn't hurt to get in or out of the 370. I just found myself feeling less and less willing to do it. The biggest factor in my change was the fact that as my DD,...

I worry about that. So, I bought a 5 year bumper-to-bumper maintenance contract and warranty. If something breaks, it's Ford's problem. :)

I drove a Boss 302. It isn't noticeably faster than the GT. It had one problem that bothered me: the steering is way looser. I could turn the wheel at least an inch in either direction without...

No. I didn't order mine, so the one I have is standard GT suspension (damn good in my opinion) and standard brakes (not sure at all how they will do on the track. They are fine on the road). I would...

Actually, the GT isn't that common. The dealer told me that virtually everyone wants the 6cyl. Mustangs in general, are much more common. I do get less, "wow what a cool car" comments. I have only...

I am still here. Just got busy at work. Thanks for all the good thoughts. I will always love my Z. I had both the 240 and 40 years later the 370. I'm grateful I had the chance.

It isn't that I think of my car as a race car. I think of it as a car to take to the track for HPDE days. I am very sure that Nissan, like other sports car manufacturers are well aware of this use....
