No kidding...first thing I'm doing when I get home is setting mine on fire!

All kidding aside, I love my GT500 and I could have bought a GTR OR a ZL-1 since money was not an issue. I went with the GT500 because while it is not the fastest it is a lot of fun to drive and well...I've always loved mustangs so it was an easy choice. I like the ZL-1 but not enough to buy it and the GTR is simply a BEAST and overall out performs the GT500 and ZL-1 easily in ANY category but again...I'm not looking to race the car so the daily "fun" factor IMO was higher with the GT500 since it is a manual VS automatic. Problem I have with the GTR is it's too good and does too much for you. Again, when it comes to raw performance few cars can match the GTR so, I'll always hold the car in very high esteem and have zero issues accepting the fact that it can stomp a mudhole in every aspect. Hum...losing to a GTR...not thrilled but then again unless you're in a 911 turbo S or a bugatti...well...it's no surprise!
