YOu need to tell us what you want the car for! Will it be a daily driver?
Will you be keeping it for ever? Modifying it? Selling it in 2 years?

For the nicest ride, best interior and most depreciation go for the 2010. It has a high price if it's been well optioned, with not much in the way of rebates, and will be worth much less in 2 years.

The GT500 is a good deal and will retain some value with low mileage, but can be a chore as a daily driver, what with the heavier clutch and harsher ride. Plus if you use valet parking it might be worrying too!
But if you are mainly after performance the GT500 is the way to go.

I say drive both and pick whichever one makes you happy!
I know what you mean everyday i catch someone gawking or giving me a compliment....

If you even have to think about it, then you shouldn't own the GT500! Get the GT and leave the GT500 to someone that deserves it! (jk)

I'd go for the GT500
