Test drove a V6 and a GT today...
This was the first time I have driven a late model Mustang. I have to say I was really surprised by the V6. Much louder and stouter than I expected, plenty of power for me. It was a stick and quite a bit of fun. The GT was an auto and I never really got into the gas, but it sure sounded nice. This is going to be a tough decision. I got an insurancequote of $1200/year for full coverage on the GT, I will get a V6 quote tomorrow. Decisions, decisions.

If you can afford it go for the GT, heck even if you can't, go for the GT.
The V6 may feel stout now, but I know that a couple of months down the road you'll wish you got the V8. I've seen and read it so many times, whether it's cars, trucks, motorcycles, people always want just a little more, and throwing money at a V6 to make it faster is just a waste, get the GT first, and be happier in the long run.

Wow...$3200 a year is a lot. I am assuming you are young so I believe its normal. I get it for $1200 full coverage as well. Go Mercury, it's the cheapest.
Edit: To keep in line with the post...get the GT. You will not be making a mistake. Cheers!!

I went with the V6 for 2 reasons, price of car and insurance cost.
As far as wanting more horsepower, you can always add a turbo or super charger later.
With the money you will save with the V6 you can use that money to buy the mods you will want to do.
I bought my 06 w/Pony package used and even with the money I am spending on a super charger it was still cheaper than buying a GT.
