Best stang I've ever owned (had a '69, 90, and 97 also). Car just begs to be driven....I've probably had mine as long as anyone on here (Oct. 22nd), and after 7 weeks and 1000+ miles I don't have a single complaint...Go with the GT if money allows you too. Much more fun and a helluva difference in resale/trade-in value from the v-6.....

Just got my GT, and I couldn't be happier. I would say GT with IUP all the way, but with the unknowns about IUP at the moment, who knows. Great car.

Both versions are awesome! I bought the V-6 for price and fear of my daughter w/ 310 horses (teenager). You will love both I am sure.

I love my V6 also. I've had it since 10/19 and I have had no problems thus far. The car drives and handles better than any previous Mustang I have owned.

I bought a Torch Red V6 a month ago and it is a sweet car.I did get to test drive a GT a week ago with the manual tranny and was it wild.Loved the ride,the sound and the looks.If you have the extra cash get the GT but you won't be disappointed with the V6.The V6 suits my needs,don't know if I could trust myself driving the GT all the time.Whatever you get you will enjoy it.I have only put 120 miles on mine so far,didn't buy it for a daily driver.

Can't wait to drive to work. Can't wait to drive to lunch. Can't wait to drive home (Even in traffic). Everyday requires a dose of driving.
Even with the small problems I have had (#656 early build)) I can't complain. My dealer has been awesome. Problem reported, problem verified, Problem fixed!


Met another proud 05 owner the other day at a light and he said it best (His is a manual torch red, Bullitts and rear wing). Its like playing your favorite video game everytime you get behind the wheel!
