Why on earth would you buy a V6 mustang for a mid life crisis? Your supposed to buy a boat or a corvette/viper/ferrari. Not a V6 mustang. That's what girls drive and your not a girl are you? Just kidding. I do like the new styling a lot. Wish chevy would have done that with the new vette instead of this new age angle crud. Have fun with your new toy.

Heh.. I got this one for a steal.... Looked at the GTs.. Figured neither my insurance nor wallet could handle that. I suspect I'm going to get enough tickets with this one. I've already had an offer from a buddy to take it to a race shop in Indianapolis.

Congrats ... those are nice lookin cars, I really like the dash layout.

They can do nice broadslides if you push it that far ... at least the one that I rented a couple months ago did .

Nice-looking 'Stang.

Pending the awaited (rumored) return of the Dodge Challenger, THIS would be my idea of a Mid-Life Crisis vehicle.
(And the only Ford I'd consider buying)

Amen to that. SWMBO just bought one, V6, black. They'll deal with you a bit on the V6, but not at all on the GT. I like it. Reminds me of the '67 I had in high school.

That has nothing to do with a crisis. That's a necessity in life!

If I ever make it to mid life this would be the one I would want:

Mercedes CLK-GTR



Only 25 were made at the cost of a cool million each.

Nice car Tom. I had a 99 Mustang GT convertable but I like the new body style a lot better.
