Default Thinking of buying a new v6 need advice...

I'm selling my 5.0 as i need a more reliable car to comute to college with. I'm between an auto 07 black v6 with pony package (black cloth interior), and a 07 5spd v6 white tiburon (red leather interior).
I know everyone on this site is pro mustang but im worried i will be disappointed, coming down from a 12sec 5.0 to a v6. But i am leaning towards the stang.....

What are your guy opinions and how do you like your sixes?

The v6 was rated by car and driver.. as the "fastest car under $20,000"... and I don't think you will be dissapointed if you are used to driving a mustang....and I think the 0-60 for the Tiburon is something like 7.7?.... the v6 mustang is under 7.
Add a CAI and tune.. and you will be even happier..

well if you are worried you are going to be dissapointed with a v6....step away from the tiburon. worst v6 ever. just think back to when your car was stock and you will likely have similar performance from a 4.0.

Dude, MrSandman has it right.

Get the Stang!!

Our 6's are the best out there. Simple as that.

To be honest,

If you think you'll be disapointed with a v6 stang, you WILL be disapointed with a Tiburon(minnow)

Did you expect to go to a mustang forum and have us tell you to buy a Tiburon. WRONG.

Its one of the best v6s on the market, moderate power, huge potential.
do it....
