Yeah, it's been said. So what? Does that stop anyone on here from owning one? Probably not, know what I mean?

To me it says something about the owner/enthusiast if they care about that too much. If every 10th person had a ferrari and it was affordable would you not buy one? If so then you're way too into image and not the actual car. Cheap RWD V8 pony car often replicated but never replaced - if your only critique is how many people who think its worth the sticker price then you really need to come up with a real critique.

yea i dont love them because of everyone having one i love them because to me nothing beats the sound of the 4.6, and i also believe they are some of the best looking cars on the road when taken care of and done right of course.
and like i said before to me it shows something that people like mustangs thats why everyone has one so its that much better to have a nice one that sounds good looks good and is fast

funny how most guys saying "I don't want to drive a mustang because every one has one" is driving a hundai or civic.

Amen to that. Or the 5.0. This is exactly what first got me into Mustangs.

ain't that the truth.

People say the same thing about Corvettes. They are usually the same people saying "Detroit doesn't build cars people want to drive." :/

I usually see V6 Mustangs. Hardly ever see a GT driving around.

What I think is humorous is people assuming my car is expensive or a gas guzzler or that I must be rich because I have a V8 It's not exactly a Ferrari, now is it?

Realistically, I've noticed the general public has two opinions about Mustang GT's. They either talk trash about how slow they are and how poorly they handle because they don't know squat and think their Honda is a supercar, or they think it's insanely fast and corners on rails and think their whatever car is a cow.

Next time someones asks you that, ask them why they like men. Or women, whatever they like. When someone asks me that I just laugh and shake my head. It to me is a retarded question.

i tell them "f**k you, i drive it cause I like it."

as soon as someone pulls that b.s. line on me i stop caring what they have to say, and move on with my life.

My first ever experience with a Mustang was my Granddad's 94 5.0. H/C/I, full bolt ons, exhaust, gears, etc etc... E303 cam w/ headers, offroad h, and flows... How can you NOT like that? I still gotta say that's the best sounding Mustang I've ever heard in person.

when i was little my dad prety much had me brainwashed to only like chevys and i thought he was right. but my uncle who i always looked up to had (still has) a 1993 GT. laser red or whatever with the grey on the bottom, one time he lit up the tires with me in the car when i was about maby 9 it was then when i realized my passion. eventhough i was brainwashed to like chevys i was in love with that car. from then on the mustang is my alltime favorite car i have had 3 and will have more. so to all the hater F*** em

just thought i would ramble haha

heres a pic of my uncles car. this car is responsible 100% for my mustang addiction. he has had it since 1994 nothing special but i still love it.

I've only heard that about Corvettes. Not cheap, but seemingly a dime a dozen, know what I mean?

I got into them most because of my friends but, over the years i've grown accustomed to hearing that 4.6 sound. And there's nothing better than that to my ears and millions of other people.
