Default Quick Newbie question

Hey what do you guys think about the Mustang GT? Ive always wanted one and now i have the option of getting one or an evo 8. Which do you think would be better for straight line performance? I wont be doing a lot of mods so i only want maybe like 350-400hp since it will be my daily ( if even that much). I know the evo kills it in the snow but if i dont drive like an *** i should be fine when winter comes.(Snow tires + Traction control) If i decide to get an evo i would have to have it shipped or drive down to get it and the mustang i can get from a dealer down the street. So which do you think would be best? All wheel drive is a plus but theres rarely any snow here and when there is i can always get the Snow Tires/Traction.

I know a couple of evo owners. Impressive cars but a maintenance headache. Plus you have to have someone who knows how to work on them and has the parts...sounds like that doesn't fit your location. Anyway, 350-400 hp on snow...it really doesn't matter what car you're driving you might as well be on a dog sled. It the stang...you'll never look back (IMO).
