I am thinking of getting a new car. Might get rid of the LSE.

So should I get a Mustang (06 or 07), a Charger (06 with hemi) or a GTO (05+)

all would have the v8 in them just trying to make a decision, your input would be awesome

I personally like the mustangs looks alot better than the others but I think the GTO is faster and im not sure on the Charger

I am not sure about the Mustang, I have never driven one. Charger is a good package, but the quality of interior is on the same grade as Dodge neon, it's ridiculous. The GTO is very fast and has a nice interior, but is small and the looks are a little so so, also there is no sunroof.

I would buy something else.

I sat in a charger at a dealership and the interior is a huge step down from the LS (or anything for that matter haha) IMO. I was uncomfortable in it. I don't know too much about the GTOs. I'd go with the Mustang (steer clear of the base model though!)

GTO especially if you want a stick-shift

I am 6'3" so I am thinking the GTO might be too small

again havent decided yet just thinking about it

or maybe I will just get my exhaust done and save 12 grand :)

Me Ive always driven a Ford, and my favorite car is the Mustang. Ive never had the chance to own one, due to insurance being so damn expensive here in Miami. Considering its a sports car, and im 25 years old. Therefore the Mustang would have to rule them out. Go with the Stang brotha, plus lots of performance parts for the aftermarket upgrades. P.S. just incase you do decide to sell the LS and are willing to sell the front bumper facia Im number one on the list.

if I do sell I will strip the heck out of it.

My Xcal2, my intake, my grill, anything else I can think of

:)

Its a tough decision right now I am leaning toward keeping it but I have always wanted a kick ass mustang

and charger has the hemi but it seems the interior sucks

As said above, the interior of the Charger is absolute crap. The GTO is FAST! Everybody owns a Mustang....If you get one, get a Shelby...


My .02 cents....

Why not a Corvette or a newer model V8 LS?

imo - between a Mustang, GTO, or Charger - get the Mustang GT (you can use your Xcal2 with it)

The GTO is about to get a new body style and people can buy cheaper Chargers and dress them up to look like hemis.

If you want performance, I'd steer clear of all 3 of those cars! 2 of my buddies have owned the GTSLOW, one of their dads has the charger, very nice car, gets terrible gas mileage and isn't that fast for the return of paying for the gas. The Mustang is just out of the question, but to each his own.

Personally, I would look at an EVO or something like that, same price basically for a car that can do a whole lot more for you, looks wise and performance wise. Also, infiniti G35/Nissan 350z are very fun cars, 300+ hp v6's RWD very nice interior, low cost.

It looks like you are trying to stick to domestic, but honestly, go test drive one of the cars I mentioned, it might change your mind.

Not sure if you are aware, that hemi is over-rated. When they got the power numbers, they stripped the engine of all accessories. So it's not the big bad engine they play it out to be.

Go with the mustang; HUGE aftermarket, performance potential that the charger and GTO will never be able to match... And hell, lets not forget the good looks!!

Yes you have the aftermarket parts and source to make your mustang unique differ from all the others. Yes it is tru that its played out, slang term. But it definatly rules out the other vehicles in its class.

I was raised around Mopar people and I say ditch the Charger right off the bat. I rpped one with my LS and Ill love to do it again and Im sure most of us can as well just go and try it trust me.:mad:

Sorry I hate Stangs and I think this Retro Muscle Car from christmass past crap is out of text, they make them look so d@$n bad..so any other opinion just wouldnt be correct from me but I can say dont get a charger.....
