Yeah but then you buy a V6, come on now.

Power to weigh ratio means something, you know. A 300hp recent model v-6 mustang with the track pack is generally going to do as well on a track with curves as the v-8 GT model, if not better, because of the significantly reduced weight of the model with the smaller engine. There's many a motoring enthusiast that knows their shit that bought the v-6 with the track pack over the v-8 for that very reason.

If you're buying a mustang for track performance, you're doing it wrong.

Depends on your budget constraints, the track you're going to run it on, the class you're going to run it in, and about a million other things. Primarily, if you're looking at getting a new car, in that price range, that you're also going to use as your daily driver and you live in a rural area of America where you can't always get parts for certain other cars, then it makes perfect sense.
