Sounds like a weird love/hate relationship. I love my car, for being mostly bone stock it does fairly well at autocross

I wouldn't sell my car to get one. Mine is bought and paid for and I've put a lot of blood sweat and tears into it.

I would give my coupe away for an unpassable deal on a new coyote

If you have the money then get it. I didn't have the money so I settled but I'm still happy

Meh, overrated. And that is coming from a diehard ford guy.

A clean fox seems to drop any kind of vehicle enthusiast's jaw no matter what kind of meet you go to.

LOL OP did you really expect not to get this reaction in this section? I've had several older 5.0s but older is hardly ever better than modern technology. Just my 2 cents.
