Default Just Drove the new 2011 5.0

So while I was waiting on my wifes car to serviced at my Ford dealership and the shop manager knows that I love Mustangs so he pulled the new 5.0 around and asked me to take it out for a spin.

So I did in deed take it for a well deserved hard drive around the block. I like the car very much but I not going to get rid of my 06 GT.

I feel the same way, you will probably have to pry my 07 GT from my dead hands....

I was slightly more impressed with the new v6 rather with the 5.0. Both are nice cars with some great potential but I love my 05 GT.

Eventhough I love the new 5.0, I wouldn't trade my car in on one either..

I felt the same way with my old Cobra, I loved that car to death and wouldn't trade it for anything. Then I killed it and here I am today with a shiny new 2011.
