Well it seems I will be a spectator for quite a while longer. My future of picking up either gen GT500 is in indefinite hold. Like many in the country I am now out of a job. Good luck to those who pick up this great machines and take care of them. I'll be buying a low mile version of one of these from one of you in a couple years
So in the meantime, try to hang in there, as I'm sure the right job will come along soon.

Phil, I was very disappointed to learn that you lost your job, as I know how much you've been wanting to get a used low mile GT500. And if anybody truly deserves one, it's you.

). My main goal now is making sure I can hold onto the 03' Cobra. Can’t wait until we have another topic that we can debate on.... It's always fun

Getting back to the rear of the Mustang, believe it or not, it will grow on you if you give it a chance. Perhaps it will make the '05-'09's look a little dated (in time of course). It's always tough to agree about the look of any change to a successful model, but the Mustang had to take on an edgier "moving forward" design, and I believe it has achieved this. And I think sales will show this.

Thanks Rocky, I appreciate your concern. It kinda sucks what has happened but I know people who are way worse off than me. Once I get back on my feet I’ll get a GT500 (my fiancé can't graduate from nursing school soon enough). My main goal now is making sure I can hold onto the 03' Cobra.

You just may have your wish, as there's been a heated debate going on at the following thread below

However there's a huge difference between a friendly debate between fellow enthusiasts/friends than getting into arguments/fights, in which I hate getting involved in.

Not necessarily. The "progress" of the late 90s Porsche 911 never really caught on. I keep trying to like it, it just hasn't grown on me yet. I need to see it in person. I do really like most of the rest of the car (all but the huge plastic hole in the middle of the hood).

I am convinced. I've seen enough Mustangs in my lifetime to know the '10 GT500 is the best all aroung high performance Mustang ever and it could very well be one of the last.

The Mustang has survived difficult times before. If Ford survives, I think the Mustang survives. Although it may less powerful. I know I am planning to hang on to mine.

Those are the key words right there. With the economy in the toilet and a renewed push towards energy conservation and green technology, I suspect the uber-Stangs from Ford will be less "uber" in the future. I can easily envision a situation in another six years (or less) where the most powerful top dog Mustang will be an EcoBoost V6 making 350 HP.

Yes, as George so aptly stated, we may envy the 2010 GT500 in a shorter time period than we think now. And it may just be the last of the true BIG musclecars, at least by raw HP numbers. But not to worry though, that EcoBoost V6 making 350HP may just blow the doors off the current 2010 GT500 if it is developed in the right direction. North American car production/development has barely scratched the surface of decade-old Formula One technology. Perhaps the best is yet to come..................
