I absolutely LOVE this car!!! The GT500 is the embodiment of the Neo-Muscle Car era, and Ford has really done itself proud with this one. The GT500 accelerates, handles and turns heads like no other Mustang I have ever owned. With everything you get in this package, for the price there is no better bagain out there. I highly suggest if you are a Blue Oval guy/gal pick one up.

lacks handling, but muscle cars are not made for handling and speed its more for power. the almost 6 litre supercharged ford GT engine supplies 500bhp to the drive system! its great fun to drive but fuel at 12mpg and just being what it is does not make it a practical car. would definately recommend for hiring for a day or two to enjoy driving with power but handling is not too good.

Well what do you say about a car that has been around for 50 years, still has a fixed axel in the rear and plenty of muscle in the front. I love it!!! The acceleration is excellent and the breaking is ok. I had the handling improved to that is ok as well. It will never reach the level of a track car you must know. But it is all about emotions in this car. The build quality is not as good as a german car. A lot of plastik. But so far no major repairs. The cost of ownership is mainly tires and petrol. Of course the milage is not too great with a tuned 500 Hp motor. But one I start the engine and hear the sound I do not get the grin off my face. So is it fun? Hell yeah.

All in all it is a great car. It just took about $10,000 in upgrades over 5 years to get it there. Would still take it over many cars that are higher in the price/ prestige range. Goes fast. Stops fast. Corners better than most think.

Takes me back to the 60s - the height of the muscle car era. The combination of comfort, performance, handling, reliability, and pure power is usually found only in cars costing six-figures. It is a real pleasure to drive and look at.
