I still think the 1LE is the better looking, better overall package. The 2018 GT does have 460 HP, but I think the 1LE is lighter. Also, the 1LE has two piece rotor hats, rear Brembos, and a whole bunch of other stuff the Stang doesn't have.

"We’ve been talking about it for months on Mustang6G.com ever since it first showed up in the 2018 order guide, and now Ford has officially announced the long-anticipated 2018 Mustang GT Performance Pack Level 2 (PP2) which we previewed for you last week.
The overall package not only bridges the performance gap between the GT Performance Pack and the Shelby GT350, but also gives the vehicle a new lower, aggressive stance to go along with its fine looking aero parts and unique 19-inch wheels.
So what exactly is included in the PP2? Everything already included in the 2018 Mustang GT Performance Pack Level 1, namely*– unique chassis and antilock brake tuning, unique stability control and electric power-assisted steering, Brembo™ six-piston front brake calipers with larger rotors, a k-brace, larger radiator, silver-painted strut tower brace and a TORSEN® rear differential with 3.73 axle ratio — and adds:
Redesigned front splitter and rear spoiler, 19-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, custom tuned MagneRide dampers, retuned steering calibrated for quicker responsiveness, and stiffening of various suspension components to make for better handling around corners with less body roll."

1LE has more torque, torque wins races.

The LT1 engine makes 35 lbft more torque. Ill take the 35 lbft to your 5 hp.
