Those are two of the sexiest beasts I've laid eyes on! I like the new Mustang a lot, however, the GT isn't all that impressive looking to me. It's nice, but I don't think it looks agressive enough. The wheels are mostly the problem IMO. Especially compared to previous wheel choices on last year's GT's. They should have splurged a little more in that department for the new release. But one thing is for sure, the performance was first priority. 5.1 seconds 0 - 60 mph with the AT. That means that with a manual, it could be sub 5 seconds! That's a full second less than the previous generation, and I applaud Ford's efforts with this car. Can't wait for the Cobra!

I like the Saleen better for it's front end treatment.
Looks sleaker.
I wouldn't turn down either.

Eh, both look too plasticy.... that's the only term I can think of.
they need to get rid of the seam at the rear quarter panel and blend the wheel cutouts into the body much better.

Saleen front, and hood. Roush rear.  Although the saleen front needs the two big fog lights, it just finishes the front end IMO.

I can't wait to see what the supercharged S381 is going to put down seeing how the 281 is a N/A 325!!

actually the wheels that you see on most of the gt pics. are the OPTIONAL wheel....the STANDARD gt wheels are basically the same as the '04 "bullitt" style which look soooooo much better on the car than the others..
