I had a 99 Mustang Cobra. The new Mustang has 15 HP Less that the Cobra did and 10 HP less than the 2010 Mustang GT.
I am having more fun driving the Mustang than I did with my Mercedes CLK Cabriolet, and it is just the Base Model. I would probably have a coronary if I bought the new 5.0...
As far as Bang for the Buck, it's a winner. If I could afford it, I would buy the 2011 5.0 in a heartbeat. I almost bought a Camaro SS last year. Glad I didn't.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but it looks like I'm a Ford guy. I guess I should thank Obama for that. LOL
The 2011 5.0 GT V-8 has 412 HP, and that is a very conservative number. The new Camaro got the Blue Oval boys working overtime and it paid off IMHO.
Thanks Obama.
