Default Re: Would it be worth trading my FPV GT in on a new Mustang?

I say this for you, and others commenting in this thread, to keep an open mind. There are some pretty rusted on Falcon fans here that have the blinkers on. Don’t get me wrong, I was a Falcon man long before a Ford man, I was devastated when the closure was announced and that the Falcon was to end. I LOVE my Falcons and all the Falcons that I have piloted over the years. But time moves on and, with the rose tinted glasses off, the final Falcons were well ready to be retired. They were excellent cars and represent something very special, but the Mustang moves everything forward as can only happen when development dollars continue to flow. I don’t mean to offend anyone with this post, just a prompt others to keep an open mind. Take one for a drive. No they don’t hammer off the line quite like a supercharged Miami, but there really isn’t much in it to be honest and you will be having too much fun to even notice.
Off the line, the Mustang is quicker. It's the in gear acceleration that killed it for me.

But agreed, it's the future
