Just saying for you it might be better to wait just a bit longer so you can check out the new stang. It'll have the 400hp similar to the camaro but will be slightly lighter than the 370z (current GT is at 3350lbs). While cornering in the stang won't be nearly as good as the Z, the extra power might be enough to sway you. Just food for thought.
Actually, the body will retain its current weight, plus an additional 350lbs added from the 5.0 motor, overall it will weigh the same and have 25hp less than the SS, Z will still be an upgrade over both. Be advised, the 5.0 has yet to be approved by FMC.
