I have own 3 mustangs and they have never let me down, I drive them very hard. I had a 98 Z/28 for a short while it was ugly, reminded me of a cheese wedge. At 30K miles the alternator burned out, then differential gave out, and at 50K the engine spun a crank bearing. The new mustang has the skeleton of last T-bird/lincoln LS and is very solid compared to my old 5.0. It is a luxury model with a great looking interior and exterior. Yes, it is underpowered compare to the camaro and 350z that cost a few thousand more. I went to test drive the 2010 camaro SS for $40K markup and really was not impressed the interior was very cheap and the A/C,heater, radio control cluster look like out of a toyota yaris. The gauge cluster design was awkard and the needles were bent. The camaro had plenty of power to spin the tires but felt heavy and exhaust sound is not as good as a mustang GT. I know many haters point out the low power of the ford V8 but remember it is 281ci ford vs. 360ci+ chevy. Unless you are going to RACE at every stoplight and cruise at 100mph is 426 hp practical? The 69 camaro copy exterior was nice but the rear end look exactly like a 76 nova with the backup lights floating in the middle of the bumper. If you want more power wait for the 2012 mustang with the new 400hp V8. I will be keeping my 06 stang GT a little longer.
