Not now I'm still leaning toward the GTO. I don't think I want to spend 40k on a car right now. But the 2011 and GTO is still a toss up. I've read bad stuff about each, few more issues with gtos.



As for my current gt, I am not selling because I've spent a lot of money on the new motor, supercharger, etc and will take too big of a Loss if I sell it. I am getting a dd because I want to keep building the gt and beat on it rather than beat on a dd
I counted 9 posts endorsing the 5.0L which should have been expected on this forum, and 0 on the GTO, seems like you had your mind made up before the thread...just saying

Agreed. And I don't know where he's getting that $40k stuff for a GT either. lol.

I wouldn't pay $5k for a GTO, period.

I would take the LS engine out the GTO and keep the engine, you can junk the remaining. For 40k you could do a lot to a 2011 and even the 2013.

40k for a 2013 is where in getting that price from. I know I'll get 5.0>gto on a mustang forum. Just trying to see how the mpg and seats were from actual owners. Yes, I did have my mind set on a gto but wanted other inputs because I do want another mustang.

So wait. You are complaining that gas is killing you from driving 75 miles one way...

Then you look at a GTO? Dafaq?

You'll regret getting a GTO as a daily. I promise you that.

All the 2013's I've looked at we're 33-36k plus the dealer tint and misc for 1200-1700.00 plus ttl.

What are you talking about? Go see Skip at Grapevine. He'll help anyone buy a car. Here's an example of a car BEFORE his hookup.

28k isn't bad at all But that's cloth. I'm looking for leather interior. I think that's why the ones I looked at we're around 34-36k plus ttl.

I've decided to just look for a 2011 GT since it still has the 5.0 and around 21-25k and leather.

Maybe skip can make a great deal on a cloth that I can't refuse.
