It's like the same thing that happened when the new 5.0 motor was put in the current GT.

im with you too, im a valet and i drive rental v6 comaros every day. the windshield is the tiniest piece of crap ever, i can hardly see out of the damn car and im not a short person by any means. it also has absolutely TERRIBLE blind spots. the only car that even comes close to being as horrid to see out of is the... wait for it... mustang. the way i see these american muscle cars they are fast and they look good now, but in 5 years it will look worse and in 10 it will look like a beater, because 90% of them will be actual beaters driven by people who dont care. its a lot like the Cadillac cts. i thought it looked great when it first came out and i still love the new ones, but the old ones did not age well they look cheap even compared to a 3 series from the same era.

i got to drive a gt500 the other day, it was brand new still with dealer plates on it. it was nice, but it was very clearly still a mustang. id rather shell out the 65k or so for a used GTR.

Just built mine, came out to 66K. IMHO, a phenomenal value. An M3 similarly equipped will be near 80k...and lets be honest, an M3 is not as fast. A very serious contender for my next toy. A few year ago, I could have sworn off American cars for good. Now, after getting my Wrangler, and falling in love with the Mustang, I really think it will be in my garage next year.

You know, just for kicks, I'd test drive this car back to back with a Z06 before I bought either one. There is much that you can't learn from a spec sheet.
