Seeing as I already have a hatch, I vote for the coupe! Wheres the vert choice? I think thats my next Mustang, 87-93 vert, then the coupe will follow in a couple years.

I was originally looking for a Gt when searching for a 5.0 because I preferred the looks...but really wasn't against the lx at all...but when I met the car and guy that drove my future car...I couldn't pass it up...and don't regret it...

The only thing I don't like about the Gt vs. Lx (notch/hatch) is that everyone thinks the "gts" are quicker...but in reality there isn't much difference in weight...Some ask if my car is a V8 or not because it is an lx... ...but my exhaust seems to give it away... Lol...in fact today I was talking to a neighbor (300 yards away on a hill)...and he said thanks for the "back-up alarm" in the morning...and I said "what?"...and he said I can hear your car start up every morning and it has "saved him" a few times to get up to work I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing...I didn't realize it was that loud...I guess I have the infamous "mustang deafness"?

Gotta love the notchbacks......the hatches are everywhere...but how often do you see a nice clean notch (and 8 cylinder to boot!) driving around? I think the trunk cars have a sinister, plain-jane, sleeper look to them.
While i'm on the subject....anyone else get peeved when people put wings on coupes??? Man....way to ruin a notch!

Coupe, no doubt. The GT hatch is nice, but I like the lx best. I like the looks of the hatch, but there is a noticeable difference with the coupe and hatch.
