test drove today

I finally test drove a camaro 1LT, genesis coupe and 09 mustang gt today. I gotta say the mustang impressed me although I'd rather have a 2010, but no discounts yet. Shifter was very nice, light clutch and drove nice with comfortable seats. The gencoupe not so much as it was a manual and clutch was notchy and hard to find the right gear, ride was harsh (flat spots on wheels did'nt help), but it did have an excellent stereo and felt like it was faster than the stang although its not supposed to be. The camaro came in somewhere in the middle IMO. Probably the best looking of the 3, felt the slowest (obviously the auto did'nt help), but I liked the interior even without the aux. gauges and the cloth seats were very comfortable. I think I could settle for the 1LT maybe without the sunroof and get a manual and it "may" be affordable. They wanted about 28k for it and I would like to get one of these cars under 25k if possible. It looks like the stang is out as the 10's have no rebates, but I can get a-plan so a base gt may be close, gens can be had at invoice, but not likely to get the auto model for that price, maybe a base later on and not the gt. btw, I'm supposed to look at a new2009 Bullitt I found on the net yesterday. Very rare black with a big discount. What do you guys think? The understated look fits me fairly well, but I kind of would like to test a auto gen and a manual 1LT too, but don't want to pass up the mustang deal either...
