kaneda,
I agree. But, the GT500, in my opinion, has already crossed that price point where buyers, such as me, expect much more than just power. I have a 2011 GT and it is identical to the GT500, except for the powertrain and some suspension components. And, it was $15-20K less. I seriously considerd the GT500. However, one thing I expect for $50K and greater is much more refinement and not having to deal with stupid issues (like the clutch issue) at the dealer level. I love my Mustang for waht it is, an American pony car that doesn't need a ton of refinement to be enjoyable. However, if I'm spending more than $50K, I want refinement and better service. That is what you get at Audit, Porsche, etc. dealers.
I guess my point is that both Ford and Chevy are in danger of pricing themselves out of the market with the GT500 and possibly the Z-28. I can get raw power out of a modified standard GT or SS Camaro and for less overall money. If I wasnt to spend big bucks on a car, I'm going upscale.
