Default Cant Decide! Help me!

Man im having a lot of trouble deciding here guys. Im looking at getting either an 05+ Mustang GT or an 06 Goat, and i cant make up my mind. I'd like to pretty much base my buy off engine performance, street racing performance (mainly drags, sometimes more) handling, and which would probably be cheaper to add stuff to the engine. I'd probably start with a supercharger. But im right on the fence so im not leaning either way

Definitely go with the Mustang. You can find used 06s and up for less than 18 grand, which I doubt is the case with the LS2 GTOs. Plus Mustangs are lighter so if you're looking at putting a supercharger in you're basically gonna be pushing the same or higher power to weight ratio as a GTO. Good luck with whatever you choose though.
