Of course I do...I just found your statement somewhat amusing, that's all.
I can't wait to see what the intro of the Challenger and Camaro do to price of specialty Mustangs; more specifically the Shelby GT and Shelby GT500. In 2009 if you can get a GT500 for the same price (give or take) as an SRT-8 Challenger, I guarantee that takes a huge chunk out of potential Challenger buyers! Which means more units available for us...at a reasonable price! Dontcha just love competition? God Bless America!!! That might just be wishful thinking however because I don't see any let-up in sight for the $10-$20k markups the stealerships are STILL getting for the GT500s! I was on ebay yesterday and saw an `07 GT500 convertible going for $56k+! WTF???

Not to be a jerk - but Mustang was introduced to the public at the New York World's Fair on April 17, 1964 and has NEVER ceased production! Unlike it's two biggest wannabe "competitors" / challengers....
I would hope that you would think I was a little smarter than that.
What I am referring to is the new model year 2009 Mustang, then of course you have the newly designed 2010 model on the horizon.
With gas prices through the roof, a possible recession on the way, the intro of the GT500KR and the Super Snake, and the aging of the current Mustang model and imminent Mustang update for 2010, the prices of the gt500 mustangs should come down even if Challenger and Camaro weren't coming soon. it's crazy that a GT500 convertible costs almost as much as three base model Mustangs. Now if only Ford could make the Taurus and Focus as popular as the GT500...
One thing is for certain, it's good to be a car guy nowadays. There's a bunch of good, fast cars out or coming very soon, not just from the US but from Germany and Japan too.
