Welcome to MF from the Great White North!

I don't personally own one of the new 2011 5.0 Mustang GT's, but I did test drive one last summer and was very impressed. The car just felt "right", and this was after I test drove the 2010 Camaro SS as well. The 6 speed manual tranny in the 'Stang shifted like a knife going through warm butter. To say it was just smooth would be an insult! This car is out and out the best of the current generation of neo muscle cars. It has also been compared very favorably to the much more expensive BMW M3. This is a great car for the money. Your husband (and you too) will love this car!

The new ones are a blast. I have had several old ones, plus '00 GT Vert, '07 GT Vert, and now the '11 GT/CS. All good but the new power under the hood is sweet. Some minor issues but nothing that cannot be dealt with.
