If your aim is to get a car that is going to hold its value, just about any non-specialty Mustang is a terrible idea.

In all other cases, get what you want, and don't make comparisons. I could sit down and be upset that I have a car that, on paper, makes more power than certain German alternatives, but in reality makes nearly 100 less at the wheels.

I didn't buy mine for public approval or to be the fastest car on the road, or to have a stack of dollar bills on wheels. I wanted something fun and rev-happy. I could have chosen differently if I had a different goal in mind.

You're throwing more than $80,000 at a souped-up GT. You're going to lose money on this car, and it's probably not the best bang for your buck. But who cares? Are you going to have fun with the car, or are you more concerned with what X, Y, and Z think?

I had to lookup the fp800s package, never heard of it. Looks fantastic!
