Where I'm from 2005-2007 gt mustangs can be found for 10-15k and I'm in Canada so the msrp is even higher, so ya they don't hold their value well. I'm not buying a car to sell it I'm trying to be as financial savvy as possible just incase I decide to sell the car down the road I'm not losing 15-20 grand. My moms mustang we bought for 40k and sold it 4 years later for 20k. If only most people were more conscious about purchases these days yikes..

I might consider a GT if I can't find an FR-S at MSRP . Its 30k, and seeing how mark-ups are and may continue for a while. I have this irrational fear that the FR-S is so sweet that they jack-up the price because of demand.
But, I'd have to do some radical things to it so people can distinguish me. |

You can pay a transport truck ~$1500 to truck an FR-S to your location. Buy it out of state.
Back on topic - I won't lie; that Roush Mustang looks flippin' sweet! But like everyone else already said, Mustangs are wayyyyy too common for my taste.

For the V8 Mustangs, Roush developed an independent rear suspension system. Do we know if that system is carried over to this V6?
@Capt Canuck, i disagree about those(05-07) Mustangs being rubbish. I've watched them win in the SCCA and NASA races for years now.
