Would you trade your New Edge in on a 11 6er?

^^^ kinda surpise at your response Hoss. You have one of the best looking New Edges on MF and by the looks of it one of the best maintained. Not saying anything negative because we all have our own opinions, likes and dislikes..I'm really digging the vert BTW...

Im in a phase of my life where i need more space(for my job), better gas mileage(dont need it but it would be nice) and it would be nice to just have a more comfortable ride(on the interior). Im over the whole lets go fast stuff and more into creature comforts right now.
My cars almost paid off so It would be foolish of me to get rid of it.. n I never will, but if I was in a sit where im paying for a car that I just got n saw the new v6s stats, I would def trade up.

If I had a new edge gt, idk it would be a hard choice. I traded in my 04 mach1 for a 07 gt (brand new) and I later sold that and went with the terminator. The S197 just didn't feel like a mustang to me.

love the sound and off the line grunt of the v8 even if it doesent match the 300+ hp that the 11v6 has. but hell how much would it cost to get that much power or even hell of alot more from a 2v vs the price you would pay for that 11v6. at the same time i love "creature comforts" but to me my mustang will always be my "lets go fast" toy as for creature comforts i will just get a decent Used luxury car on the side. or feed both of those needs get a mark8 for the creature comforts and throw a blower on it. nah i wouldnt trade!

Both sound great but in the defense of the v6 the new edge sounded like the exhaust notes where echoing off the building.... just saying.

I've been noticing alot of Non New Edge GT owners (and some that own New Edges) bash them for there lack of performance. New Edges don't do well with bolt on's... 2v's suck... New Edge GT gets beat by 11 6er.. blah blah blah. Wasn't the New Edge GT, the fastest GT ever built just 6-7 years ago (last twenty years anyways')? We all know that the 11 is bringing the pain on all pre 05 GT's and I was just wondering if you could trade in your New Edge GT, would you trade it in for a 11 6'er? I have nothing against 6 cylinder mustangs but I know without a doubt I would not. I guess my biggest reason would be the sound that the V-8 makes, amongst others. Now the 11 GT I would trade in my car plus my dog, lol!! Let me hear from you guys..
i liked the way my v6 sounded a nice tone but my GT i love it
