That's another that has made the switch. There have been quite a few on these forums.

Dude, there's always something better. Don't get sucked into the mindset. The V6 is a sweet car with plenty of performance. Get booked into some HPDE. Track it. Drive it, enjoy it. Don't regret it. There's always something better, nicer, newer, faster, shinier.
Well yea your are correct..................but i dont think ive ever seen anyone regret getting the v8.

All true mate! But my GT is not a DD. Just a toy. I actually briefly considered getting a V6 for my DD (in addition to my GT). Haven't decided what to replace my old DD with, but likely a Ford product... Focus, Escape, Fusion, etc.

i was thinkin about a fusion as my wife's next lease. had a rental and it was real nice.

yep, if your GT is just a toy, then a GT350 would be an even better toy, lol.

A 350 with the tech package shouldn't be too bad of a DD.

A GT is going to be a lot cheaper than a GT350 so those of us who could just swing payments for a GT aren't going to have buyer's remorse, but we might be a little jelly.

I'm very jelly of GT350 owners. That's the car I'd really want if I could afford it. Forza 6 will have to do to get my GT350R experience for now.

There's a handful that are sticking to their guns and are "not that impressed" by the GT. They've even taken the time to test drive it to see if it's really worth it but convinced themselves that it's not... again.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with mine. And, yeah I wasn't that impressed by the GT over my EB+mods. Any difference wasn't worth it.



If you like the GT it's a great car, enjoy it. As I said before, different strokes, different folks.
