test drove a 07GT the other day
all i have to say is WOW. i love it. rides, handles, drives, corners, turns, brakes, looks, runs, idles... amazing. compare to my car which i got new, and pretty much it still runs like new. not evern close to the S197. over all i am very impressed. power is sooooo smooth. obviously its not a BMW or Benz, but its very nice. it def feels bigger and heavier then our cars. power wise, it kinda feelsa bit quickerthen a new edge GT, but then again i didnt really get on it too much. i cant wait to make the switch.
anyone else test drive one, and what did you think?

One of my boys has one. I drove it. It is a hell of a lot smoother, easier, and overall better car to drive compard to the 99-04.

RE: test drove a 07GT the other day
My Friend/Roomate has an 06'... I have driven it MANY times... it is OK.. personally... I think it is TOO smooth! Just dosent feel like a Mustang.. feels more like a Lexus! Lol... Im sure some mods would cure that right up... but as it is I like my 2000 better! Mabey Iam just used to my car... As for power... I used to beat him every time when his car was new... now when we get a clean run... that is no one spinning to much or missing a shift... I usually get the jump on him, driver mod mabey?, but he gets me soon enough... gets about a half to a full car length on me... then we equall out with niether pulling... but him ahead. His car is Bone stock, I have Bassani Exaust and the air silencer removed... for what thats worth! Lol.... I am a bit hesitant to power shift, at least into third I am... that is the gear I am more prone to missing.

RE: test drove a 07GT the other day
I drove a 06 but it was an auto. I used to work at a car dealership and one day I was bored with no customers so I just took the keys and started test driving everything on the lot. It seemed to have nice power but, nothing to cry home about. Over all I thought it was a smooth ride and the interior just blows any other stang away.
