Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I have taken delivery of my new stang and it is so far ahead of the 1991 GT I had 15 years ago. This car is wicked cool!!!! Not only is the engine putting out almost twice the power on a manual 6 speed no less, this is a stock mustang that actually gives a cylinder head temp reading and real time A/F mixtures in your dash without going aftermarket!!! I will be looking into getting an aftermarket tuner to be able to tweak performance to suit my needs. Any suggestions?

Well my last Mustang GT which was a 1991 was rated at 215HP.

This 2013 GT is rated at 420HP!!

I remember back when 420HP out of a 5.0 required serious engine mods and either nitrous, turbo, or super charging.

I was actually considering getting a good used 2003-2004 Cobra but my wife did not like that body style.
