As far as performance the supercharged mustangs have always taking extremely well to bolt ons. With very little money these things will be in the low 11's in the quarter. I prefer the 4 door car, with the awd and love my evo but by no means think the shelby is not bad *** for those who buy em.

My sentiments exactly. I believe those times were on stocks tires as well. Throw some slicks on it and they'd be significantly better. I'm not a Ford fan and I'd never buy a Mustang, but I still think the new design makes it one of the sharpest looking cars on the road ( sometimes I thinks there's a little jealousy about that!)

I would only trade my Evo for a new 911 GT3. A Ford doesn't even come close.

meh, Ford? Don't think so. Give me an M5 any day though.
Bit more money, perhaps a Cayman S.

I saw a Top Gear review of the GT500.. It looks like they took a mustang.. slapped a better motor in it, but didn't do a thing to make it handle better or brake better.
