Im from Saudia and I want to tell you people that the mustang is perfect as it is. My cousin recently got his gt500 and its awesome. He test drove the boxter before the gt500. He said the boxter very fast but when he drove the gt500 he said it was brutal. Plain and simple, violent even. The boxter doesnt even come close to the gt500. The GT500 drowns out the little porsche engine like its not even on, much less accelerating hard. It accelerates away from the porsche like the porsche is an economy car.
When I told him that the porsche has a much more comfortable interior and ride and his exact words were(after being translated) "Screw the comfort, I want speed, Id get a lexus if I want comfort."
Now I know that the porsche is for a different segment, people that "enjoy driving" but man you cannot deny the fact that the GT500 is a monster. And these new saleens will be even better.
I was also about to buy the gt500 after driving it but I think Ill wait for the saleen extreme mentioned here.
And the live rear axle helps remove the bobbing of the back wheels of a car when it has power and you accelerate hard.(my buddies gto does this)
"5. I would rather buy an LS 600h rather than this junk."
Are you seriously comparing the lexus to this monster? It does 0-60 in 4.6 freakin seconds for crying out loud. I doubt the lexus can argue with 6.3 cubic inches. Remeber there is no replacement for displacement till this day, and no, not even electric motors can do what cubic inches can.
Im not even one of the benz fanboys, id buy the ls460 over the s550 in a heartbeat. But if in the market of 100k+ rocketsleds, there are few who can rival this AMG. You might get better milage in the lexus but thats about the only thing it can do better than this benz
