I test drove a GT Mustang before I purchased my Z/28. Yes the interior is nice. They did a fresh upgrade to the 14 Mustang interior but there are a lot of similarities. Overall, the interior is a big plus and has good attention to detail.

The body styling is terrible IMO and doesn't appeal to me at all. Complete failure IMO. I didn't like it in pictures and was told I needed to see/experience it in person. The GT drives better than the previous mustangs but does NOT drive like a high end sports car. Very soft suspension, flops and rolls in curves when pushed hard. Steering feel is bland. Could be a very good daily driver though. Personally, I give the car 6.5 out of 10 mainly because I hate the looks. It has no character, no soul, which is opposite of the C5 Camaro or Challenger which are the last of the American muscle cars. The Mustang has completely lost it's way from it's roots. Many will disagree but that's my opinion.

I wouldn't waste a dime on it. If I wanted a euro looking car, I'd buy a BMW or a VW GTI.

BTW, in case you're wondering, I'm NOT a brand loyalist. I've owned 3 Mustang GT's and loved them all. Also, owned SRT Challenger, Charger, etc. I would much rather have a 15 SRT Challenger over the 15 Mustang GT any day of the week.
