I owned a Mustang GT for about 2 months. I, like you, was suckered in by the promise of HP and a V8 exhaust note. For the first couple of weeks I was loving it, then as I began to wring it out a little I was not quite as impressed. The suspension may put down great times on a track but it felt terrible, it was harsh as hell on the back roads and had lots of dive and squat and roll there and everywhere else.
I think the final straw was the shifter. Initially it felt like a short, tight, precision shifter, but as I began driving it more, occasionally running it through the paces, I noticed it wasn't very consistent. Sometimes I'd get blocked out of 2nd, especially if I shifted at redline. 3rd gear didn't seem to be where it was supposed to be sometimes, too.
At this point I felt like, the car did nothing well. I traded that POS in on a 370Z, which is what I traded in on the Mustang. Even though the 370Z shifter isn't great, they at least always work consistently.
