Default 2007 Mustang GT Premium

I went to MPH06 last night and fell in love.....
I know it's a cack-hander....I know it's septic....but damn....

4.6L V8 with 300bhp and 320lbft of tq with massive tuning potential for £25k????

Anyone had and experience with one??
As i've kinda put my name down for one subject to test drive

Oh....and the clocks have 120 different colour settings

(and if you'r thinking of going to MPH06....don't.....the show is cr@p and don't get VIP tickets.....they're a waste)

No way.....I wouldn't have a Monaro if you paid me.....
I really think they are the ugliest car made...

I don't like the Monaro at all or in the slightest so thats not an option.....
I know it's got the toys but I can't justify spending that much on a Vauxhall....Not being snobby or anything but it's just personal taste

The deposit is down for the Pony now though anyway though

Monaro is in a different league in every way, only thing I liked about the Mustang was the Sound and Interior, but it drove like crap IMO

But the Monaro is MORE expensie and still a Vauxhall....but it is the only decent thing Vauxhall have brought out in a few years granted....
When I say still a Vauhall, I mean it in the big, bulky plastic interior...not as in snobbery

So I pay more money.....get a vauxhall......and watch the money fall out of it....

I'd rather have something different....with an all round "feel"
(plus £3500 fitted supercharger for 420bhp???....yes purlease.....)

Well its not really a Vauxhall its a Holden, but hey its your money and hope you enjoy it, but I would much rather spend the extra money on a car that has 500bhp standard and requires no modding
