As regular readers may know, my family is in possession of a 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT coupe. I've been trying to get a good video of it for a while, but it's simply not working, as YouTube insists my files are corrupted (they aren't). Happily, Motor Trend had a long-term tester of the convertible version of the same car, only ours has a full black interior and the base headlights.
It sounds even better in person. And BTW, those staffers that wanted a S*b*r* WRX ST* are nuts. Yes, those vehicles are dreadful enough that they shan't be mentioned in polite company. Stupid S*b*r*s.
Why, you ask, was I reminded of MT's long-termer? Because of this. I love it. It's like a GT350 for those of us who can't shell out the money for a real GT350. It's still expensive, but the GTS is as good as it gets for new Shelby Mustangs in the matter of price. Anyway, the Shelby GT was called the spiritual successor to the GT350 when it came out. So now, the spiritual successor of the spiritual successor of the GT350 will get walloped by a GT350? I'm confused.
GT500: "Who are you, thou other-lane occupier? Answer me, for I must know."
GTS: "I am GTS, son of GT, son of GT350."
GT500: "Oh."
