It seems these days that you can have your Mustang fried, boiled or scrambled. With so many options makes and models, which one do you choose? Let’s start with the base and work our way up.

2008 Mustang 4.0L is your base model starting around $19k. It comes with a gazzillon packages to choose from, like my favorite “Mustang Warriors in Pink“.

2008 Mustang GT 4.6L V8 with 300hp. This will run you a few more bucks than the base model.

2008 Bullitt Mustang Starting at $31k, 4.6l v6, HP 315, Torque 325, Tremec 5 speed, Sport tuned chassis, 3.73 limited slip solid rear axle, Limited production of 7,700. When you can not come up with something that has not already been done, revamp what you got with vintage styling and slap a name to that will sell. Nothing really stands out and makes this car a little bland, despite all the extra “Bullitt” Styling.

2008 Shelby GT500/ GT500KR Pricing has been all over the board, but expect to pay around $80k or higher. The 5.4l v8 producing 500hp is a great added bonus for the buck. The styling and every detail lives up to the Shelby name.

2008 Shelby GT/ GT-C $48k will get you 310+hp and cool Grabber Orange paint with lots of racing inspired upgrades. At just $10k more than the Ford GT it is well worth the money for the extras.

2008 Roush Mustang Roush offers 6 Mustangs to choose from. The base model at 210hp all the way to the 435hp 427R with price tags peaking at $60K. Nothing to cool on the bottom end other than a name and some minor changes.

2008 Saleen Mustang Saleen offers seven Mustangs to choose from, and horsepower from 390hp to 620hp one can not complain. By far the best styling one is the H302 which is also offered as a Dan Gurney signature edition.

I could mention Unique Performance and Chip Foose, but who would want that crap. My money would be on the Shelby KR and/or the Saleen H302. Both offer great styling in a racing package.
