..would you rather win a 1968 model, or a 2008 model? For a quick explanation of the idea, have a look at this post (<-Click me!!)

So, read the guidelines, and tell us what you would rather have for a DAILY DRIVER!!

'08. Don't get me wrong, I love the old school 'Stangs, but I would have to take the '08 instead of the '68.

while it would be nice to have the interior of the 08, i love driving my demon on a daily basis, and i think that the gt500kr would make an awesome DD.

I vote for the 08. I never bought into the "they don't make 'em like they use to" theory.

Classic. Worth more long term. I really like the 08 KR except for the wimpy rear spoiler.

While the '08 would be a much better drive day in and day out. I'd take the '68 for one reason...$$$$$$ '68 is worth atleast twice what an '08 is worth. My grandfather had a '69 Shelby GT500 vert up to a few years ago and it was a great great car to drive and looks much better then IMO. His was a 428 Super Cobra Jet, Drag pack, Race Pack car. It looked like the car below except without the black hoodstrips(which I think look bad considering the rest of the car had white strips) and his had a white interior. The car below is a '70, 1970 GT500's were just left over '69 GT500's with the VINs changed and black hood strips thrown on.
