See if they will let you get a supercharger, that will take care of the lost HP from not getting the GT.
hahahaahaha just tell them it will increase gas mileage

Yes it's an automatic. Pretty obvious since I had to power brake it eh?
Didn't know you are only 19 yrs old.
I'd feel real lucky they are letting you even get behind the wheel performance car like the mustangat all if I were you kiddo.
One main issue is insurance. It would be killer for a kid your age in a GT. Stick with the 6 banger. You'll like it just fine, even stock it kicks!

Well the one Fazm did was a manual and he power braked too by the looks of it. How'd you do it Fazm? Im only 18, the other guy is 19. I mean for a 41 year old car, my mustang is fast, and very much more dangerous then a new car. Yes, it's made better with better materials, but it doesn't have crumple zones, steel bars in the doors, etc etc. BUT I DO KNOW my car is no match for a GT, and it wont be til i get at least 300 HP out of my 289. Then it'll smoke a GT just because of the weight difference.

eh, dont say "gtp's" my gtp ran a 14.6 STOCK and after a little tweaking its running mid 13's for 1000$ in mods and can run high 12's for another 1000$. but then again, say a G6 GTP because Grand prix GTP's from 97-2003 can run lower than 15's stock, and they are auto, not much room for failure. Besides GTP's should have always stayed SC'ed like mine, because u can do wonders with a m90. Btw im 18 and i feell handling afast car is easy althoughone of mine are front wheel drive. Im planning on selling the gtp in the next month to accomodate for a new mustang, a grabber orange 07. a 4.0L or a GT is undecided. i can get both, my parents say go for the GT, and i really want one, but thats a whole nother year of payments i will have to make to pay it off, because my GTP isnt that much of a down payment. But, thats how i work, i get to choose what i want because i work for what i get-Jon

yes its a manual, and yes im power braking. Nothing can smoke the tires for that long in the same spot without creeping forward, including a 7000hp top fuel dragster lol.

It will be a lot easier to spsin in 2 days though
