when i do decide to get a GT what should i be looking for?
right now i am a V6 owner( yeah it is my first car), i've had it close to 5months and i've already put close to 4G in it. once i turn 18 i plan on getting a GT, i'd really like to get a 02-04'. i know nothing bout GT's should i go with a manual or auto trans? and etc. just questons like that.

If you can swing a mach1 that is what you should go for. With just some boltons and a cam swap you can see 380hp. They respond far better to mods, plus they are a lot more rare.
Also, if you are hell bent on getting a GT or mach1 when yer 18, stop modding the V6 unless it is something that can be swapped over.

hell ive had my 6 for 3 years. I don't think im going to be getting a new car until this one dies on me. I dont see the point of having to start a car note all over again when mines already paid off. I have a long ways to go until mine dies being is still only has 21k miles on it.

any jackass could tell you the mach is better. got the dam cobra engine in it.
obviously everyone will say get the mach, but can you afford it? if so then y not. ide take a stock mach to a slightly modded gt any day. cuz soon as u get the smallest things done to it your flyin

I disagree with that, my v6 had an auto and I like the TR-3650 better. Plus if he does decide/is able to get a Mach then you'd want a manual so you get the forged bottom end. You can mod the 4R70W to perform pretty good though.
I say don't do any performance mods to the v6. I regret spending money on my v6 after getting the GT, even though I enjoyed it when I had it.
When you start looking for a new Mustang, try and figure out if things have been taken apart or not. Like fenders, engine parts, ect. Usually it's not a good thing when things have been taken apart.

Lets Race
I dont see how you can call a GT slow if you drive a six cylinder. I have all the respect for a 6 cylinder Mustang but when the owners ignorant I have none. Thats like me calling a Mach slow. It's a crazy thing.

Lol..I'm not ignorant..I've driven a GT before, but in all honesty a GT is nothing special. The 32v 4.6's are much better...the difference between a V6 and a GT is pretty big but the difference between a GT and a Mach is even greater, and the price difference between a GT and a Mach around here is about $2,000 whereas the price difference between a V6 and a GT is around $5,000-$6,000 so it's not worth it to get a GT. I'd rather spend the extra 2K to have a car that can atleast hang with newer cars and the next generation of Mustangs, instead of something that will end up being slower than the next gen V6..ya know?

I agree 100% that a Mach is a better car but i would not call a GT slow just because it's slower than a Mach. The if I had a choice of corse I'd buy a Mach but I would never call a GT slow just like I'd never call a V-6 Mustang slow. The way I look at it, all of us (Mustangs, Camaros, and Firebirds) are in the same boat. That is we all are against "Ricers."

I Wish more of the GT guys shared your attitude. As long as it's an american car, I'm down with it.
