I went Shelby GT in the last one and GT500 in this one. I dunno... I just prefer the more stock looking ponies.

GT500 hands down. 5.4 > 4.6 all day.

I'm torn between the GT500 and the PJ. I voted for the Shelby because of the extra power.

In an ideal world, I would choose a Mustang having Roush's suspension+brakes, PJ's looks and GT500's powerplant+driveline.

GT500. I could totally turn that thing into a sleeper looking regular old run of the mill GT. It would be so easy to throw on a different s/c pulley and crank out an easy extra 100hp. When some TransCamHawk thinks he is hot stuff I'll show him my taillights!!

Stage 3, it's the only one that you can get with an Automatic Transmission.

I was torn between the GT 500 and the Saleen! I fell in love with the Saleen at the dealership once. But the GT 500 has bigger stuff under the trunk if you know what I mean!

I voted GT:500, but that steeda is tempting, hand built 5.0l w/ 575 hp compared to 500hp 5.4l, Ill take either one!

I gotta go with the PJ. Love that shaker and engine.

I think it's interesting that despite stereotypes of us mustang enthusiasts, most of us aren't choosing the ones with the most hp.

Very hard choice... I love the look and power of the GT500, Love the Foose esp. w/ a Supercharger. The PJ is such a limited Edt. But I choose the Saleen Extreme, because I saw one @ 2007 Spring Break Nationals, It was numbered, Signed and had a solid Glass roof, It looked amazing and the 550HP doesn't hurt!
