The second link is just a video showing how most of the people that bought a GT500 are probably feeling disapointed in thier investment. I will give you that the GT500kr is a cool car but if im in the market for a SPORTS CAR for that much money, you can be sure im going to buy the most bang for the buck, and the GT500 is not it.

I'm curious to know why you don't feel that at $42K a 500hp GT-500 doesn't have much bang for the buck? Where else you going to find a factory 500hp car for that price? It's pretty tough to say that to me cause as you've stated in your above post there really isn't anything else at that power/pricing point. A Vette would be better but it costs more if you look at MSRP vs. MSRP. The Camaro is and always has been one of the greatest bang for the buck cars, but it starts at 9K less. It doesn't have competition at that price unless you maybe look at a $40K SRT8 Challenger but I'd def. rather have a GT-500 for 40 grand than a Challenger.
