Yeah I actually would. I think the V6 is fast enough, and the interior is great on the premium. All out speed isn't everything to everyone, besides you ain't gonna use it that much anyways on the public road. Well, driving normally that is. The one thing I do like about the GT is the V8 sound, of course, but I am not going to pay 10 grand extra just to have a cool sound coming out the back of my car.

You must, cus your bragging about a 2011 GT that you don't even have. My 11 V6 would smoke your GT, so 
and happy new year.

The V6 inferiority complex is alive and well I see.

I guess my next question is how much did the guys who got the GT (I'm looking at the GT base package) paid for it? 
I want to hit the Ford dealership tomorrow so I want to get a ballpark figure so I don't get screwed over.

I hope that helps.
Keep in mind, come January they will be dumping 2010's as fast as they can. You might get a great deal. Personally though I would get the '11 so you can get the 5.0

Nah, just kidding. I'd never buy a honda. And I would never not want to have fun like that.
And to all the guys who say screw the v6....
Obviously the 5.0 is the better buy. There is no reason to say screw the v6. Most of you have 05-09 GTs anyways, and those v6s have almost as much power as you (stock). Just keep that in mind.

I guess what he is really saying is.....the 2011 V6 Premium is FASTER than YOUR CAR TOO!....That's if you aren't S/C. 
Guys, don't dis the '11 V6 so quickly! Did you not read the post I made about "WINNER:FORD MUSTANG".....it was the V6 Premium that was tested!
Now given a choice between the V6 Premium and 5.0, I would go with the 5.0.
OP, are you concerned about insurance or mpg?
