Thanks for the help, I remember driving that car years ago when he first got. That car is torquey, but the Mustang seems like it uses it's power better.

That be thanks to the manual. Quick Q though, I see you have an 07 V6. How does that compare to the 87 GT power wise?

The '07 V6 Is My Wifes. The car is very smooth, and fun even with the extra heft of the convertible junk. You can't really tell it's a V6 unless you mash the pedal. It's the only V6 Mustang I'v ever driven so I can't compare it to Manual V6 wo/ Soft Top, but compared to the 5.0, they are both fine cars. However, The torque is something you miss when you don't have much.

Like they say: Torque wins races and horsepower sells cars
