My sentiments exactly...your vert is awesome but it must have been really hard to get rid of one of the best sports cars in the world!! Too bad you couldn't have had both. No flaming guys!

Welcome Ed. You got a beauty. Have fun with it and congratulations.
and the M3 is in a class of it's own....I didn't look back this afternoon to see what class that is....but you got a winner!

I didn't see anything in Ed's post about comparing the GT vert to an M3. All it said was "former M3 owner". How is that a comparison? :scratch: Some of you folks crack me up with your comments.

Some folks are just born instigators. I guess they call them trolls in cyberspace.
I love that yeller vert, now you have to go join the yellow mustang registry.

Thanks for the "welcomes" everyone. You certainly know how to make someone feel right at home.

Sorry it took so long to respond. Life has been hectic lately. To answer some of the questions/comments posted on this thread-



MAN YOU ARE NOT KIDDING! I thought I was crazy thinking that the car collected a lot of bugs! Good to know others feel the same way.

I had an E36 M3, not the current E46 monster. Actually I was planning on buying an M3 converible via Euro Delivery this year (Like I did with my previous M3), but I found it extermely hard to justify the price difference.

Sure the M3 is in a "class of its own", and it isn't really fair to compare the two. But remember, you could buy almost TWO Mustang GT verts for the same price as a fully optioned M3 vert.

Bottom line, for me, the fun to drive and value factor had me buy it. Sure, the Mustang doesn't have heated seats (yet) or seats that remember where they were set when you fold them or as nice of an interior. But you really can't touch the value.

In the first week of owning the car, I got more "nice car" and thumbs up then I EVER got on my modded M3 in the 5 years I had it.

Looks great

Belated from a former BMW owner in the East Bay. You are right as far as value goes--you can't beat the GT. I just don't like the current BMW styling in general, although I might consider an even swap for a new 6-series!
