Default tought decision

Let me start this by saying that I am 16 yrs. old and extremely lucky to get an oppurtunity like this:

My grandpa is a personal friend of the local ford dealer, so he can get me a new mustang for a large discount. I can either get a v6 premium fully loaded: leather seats, shaker 100, pony package, ect.

Or I can get a v8 completely base: fabric seats, single cd, ect.

So which one should I choose?
Keep in mind this would be my first car and my dad thinks I would die with 300 horses.

IF you feel you have good self control, I'd definatly go with the GT, if you think not, the V6 is still a sweet stang, either way you are definatly going to love the car,

I have to agree with RICAKILLA. If you think you can have enough self control to respect the GT, it's a blast. There are times for show and times for go. If you realize this, you'll be fine and you'll love the GT.

Ask if you can test drive both. There is a difference between them. We were lucky to test drive both and found we liked the v6 convertible over the v8 Coupe. The V8 is noisy, Ford made em that way with louder exhausts to make former Mustang owners happy with the sound of em it seems. I still hear from former Mustang owners saying their old GT's didn't have the power this new V6 has! My hubby was sweet enough to get the automatic since I hate manual.

Typical woman. JK!

Everyone has their preference. Personally, I like 'em loud and I like 'em fast.
