It will cost about the same to get to the level of the v8 stang and even more to pass it, and at that point, the warranty on the engine will probably be voided. Saving 20 bucks a month on insurance(difference for me between a v6 and v8 stang) isn't that big of a difference.

Exactly! Do not buy a V6 stang in order to hop it up, it just doesn't make any sense. Now, if you already have a V6 stang, or are given one by your parents (ie high schoolers, college grads, etc) then you can make the best of it by hopping it up a bit, aint nothing wrong with that. Just don't go out and buy a v6 for cheaper than a GT thinking you'll put the difference in mods, cause you'll still not be as quick as the GT is stock!
