After S197
I will only get the new model if they have the mufflers moved back to the middle where they are supposed to be. The S197 sound drives me crazy. I keep trying to come up with a good way to get some mufflers welded in under the car, but there just isn't enough clearance. Someone at Ford deserves a punch in the face for putting the mufflers at the rear where they "spit" their sound out. What a lame design.
To the Op, I plan on keeping mine and doing what I did this last time. Keep it until I can afford the higher end model and move up when I'm ready.
First mustang was a 00 V6, this one is an 08 GT, my next one I plan on getting what ever is the highest model (comparable to the GT 500) in a few years. If I do it in 8 years again then two of my three should be out of college so I will have plenty of cash for just that ;-)

I don't know anything about Corvettes. I can't say that I've ever heard any praise for their sound. But.... Mustangs are known for their sound. Ford knew what the S197 would sound like. They knew they were throwing away a good thing. To me, that's a mistake. The sound of a car is just as important as a good looking paint job or nice contours.
I will keep mine and mod it as $$$$ allows, the only way I would stop modding mine and put $$$ into another Stang would be if they come up with a Cobra (or GT500) in Mystichrome. Anyone with me on bringing the Mystichrome back for a limited run (like they always have been??)? I think in this body style it would look better than EVER!!
I got the 427R body kit finished up on it today.. i picked it up from the body shop and it is amazing on the looks.. I def keeping mine.. i have def made up my mind after warranty, putting it to the rear wheels and making it motor, N/A.. Thanks for the feedback all.. Keep it coming..
I just like the 4.6L 2v sound. I keep killing myself by listening to the clips on youtube.
Can a Mustang ever sound this good and scary again?
Sounds like a Tiger growling before the attack.
