If you want a car that everyone will compliment; Grabber Orange...I cannot go anywhere without hearing a compliment on it. Even GM guys will roll down their windows and say the car looks great.
And it's relatively rare, everyone and their sister has a red/blue/black/white/gray Mustang.

The grabber orange is an amazing color and the 05-09 cars are just plain awesome looking. There is still plenty of power and alot of room for more, especially considering all of the mods and support available for the 1st gen GTs. .

I agree with all the above! Get lots of complements on the car, even from the cops that have stopped me!

Haha hmmm... man this is a difficult decision! I know the mustang will be different in the snow, but I'm not worried about it. My 2010 has some wide tires on it from my 22's and I never had an issue with snow... even with only 2wd and no weight over the rear. My tires are 305 in width currently.

Can't go wrong with GO. The best color Ford has created

If you can swing the V8 price tag (obviously if you're considering it along with the '12 V6 being the same price), then I'd grab the 08 or 5.0. If I could've afforded a GT, I would have gotten it. The last thing you want is to regret a purchase because you could've had more power for the same price...

As far as the speakers go, crutchfield.com shows that the mustang for the 05-09 model year can take 5x7s and 6x8s, but no mention of 6x9s. Same with the 10-12 models. This is of course for mustangs without the shaker 500 or shaker 1000 systems.

So did you decide on one? Keep us posted!
