Both cars are very addicting to me, and I need both to get my fix of turning and torque.
Thats what I'm talkin bout !

My dad had a 2005 GT and it was okay from the factory but really pretty slow, a stock evo would blow its doors off. We put a procharger d1sc kit on it and it was way way faster but I still believe a stock evo would walk it. Then my dad recently bought a shelby gt500 and my stock evo mr will stay with it to about 65 or so easily without even launching the car. The evo fells way more stable as Mustangs handle bad (like any other rear wheel drive car)!

I love evo's as much as the next guy but come on. An 05 gt runs 13's easy stock. Most stock evo's run 13's stock. Not exactly blowing the doors off. A procharged 05 gt generally makes at least 400whp (unless a real idiot is tuning it). No stock evo will walk a procharged gt if the person driving the gt knows how to push the pedal all the way down. A gt500 weighs about 4000lbs and makes about 430 or so whp and wow, you can hang till 65mph. Thats amazing lol. You are definitely right about the handling but get real about the rest. That procharged gt should have actually been faster then the stock gt500 if done right. I do love your car list though, thats some serious machines you got there.
