thanks for the heads-up.

 

I agree. I give the '10 Mustang the nod when compared to the Camaro and Challenger. Next year will be a BIG year for the mustang. They are going to sell like hotcakes with the comeback of the 5.0. I've heard 100% the block will be aluminum to save weight.

The '10 body looks better every time I see one. And frankly I would even consider buying a new '11, which is saying a lot.

 

If the 11 Mustang comes out as the rumors have said, it will be hard for me to not buy one for the womans daily driver, and for me to drive when I break my Cobra! Haha

 

Sorry to bring a old dead thread but I am looking at a gt500 that's being offered to me at a good price... It's a 2010 is the good price due to the fact the 2011 is supposed to be newer and better???

Looks great notna ford guy but love the new mustang


Tia!

 

Well, it's lighter and has 412hp. I would test drive the 5.0 before buying a front heavy GT500.

 

they look nice but I would not drive it!

 

Wow, great post.

 

The GT500 lost about 100 pounds for '11.

But IMO the GT is a smokin' deal. They are already in the 11's with basic bolt-ons and mid 11's with slicks and skinnies.

 

A good friend just got the new 5.0, I drove it and it moves nice.

I don't think there's a better deal out there for the $$$

 

The GT will always be more bang for the buck and you will see yourself coming down the road all day long. Soon there will be thousands of 5.0s on the road, just like the 80's and 90's. I had one and it was great.

However, if you want something more unique with an icon (Carol Shelby) history go with the Shelby. You can quickly get 750-800HP out of the Shelby, cheaply get 600hp. You won't see yourself coming down the road either.

Either way you will enjoy, good luck.

 

why is ur hand made of gold ?
huhhh

guys its not as rumor any more its in markets and for sale both the gt and gt500 have an aluminium block amazing fun car i highly recommend it but if u can GT500 is the right choice
with all due respect to the GT fans and i'll proudly drive it !!!!!!!!!!

 

This new 5.0 has got me thinking Mustang for the first time in a very long time.

Might have to buy one so the wife can finally learn how to drive stick well.

 

Yes and no, the average person can't tell a GT from a GT500. Plus you can buy a GT, put 10K in mods in it and make it a beast, and still pocket about 10K over getting a GT500.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.

 

Agree, the average person can't tell. But an owner of a GT can tell and he/she will see themselves all day long - just saying the Shelby is exclusive.

 

I have to agrees with rolls. Shelby cars are and will be more exclusive than the 5.0's.
