Goog friend has a screeming yellow '05 GT Vert. Car is soo much more refined and better built than any other late modle mustang. My '00, is weak in comparision. BUT, he spent $35 k on the car, when a low mile, stock '00 GT Vert can be had for $12 - 13k around here.

As much as I love the new '05's I would prefer to spend the extra money building a car up. Imagime what you could d0 with $25k (car and mods)? And, my '00 still looks great. Even with the '05 running around, it still turns heads.

Case in point, the two of us were parked a couple of weeks ago at a Ice Cream place. Guy and girl in a Mysti-Chrome Snaake vert stop by to look at our cars. Mine got all the attention. Why? Because if they wanted to look at a stock '05, they could have just gone to a dealer.

If Ford should come out with a GT-350 say in the 30 - 35k range (GT-500 w/o the blower) that would be hard to pass up, but that is still a lot of money.
