Now 80K for a Mustang.....yea, that's going too far. It completely obliterates the very concept behind the pony/musclecar.......which is cheap performance for the masses. When they build a Mustang with a wordclass suspension and powertrain that will compete against the best in its price range/class, and package it together with second to none fit and finish.......then I can condone an 80K price tag for a Mustang. Until then....its just a standard 41K GT500 with a CF hood, a smaller pulley, and better springs.

Think of it as motivation for what people can do. That's really the idea behind the car. Its not to make this individual model sell well, its to make the lower models sell well because people are inspired as to what can be achieved...
