GTO, hands down. There have been numerous comparison tests between the two.

The GTO is faster and more comfortable. And I honestly like the styling better.

Ok...so I am biased, but I have never sat in seats as comfortable as those in the GTO. Plus you will be getting 100 hp more with the GTO. The Blaupunkt 6 disc stereo system is not too shabby either.

Depends on if you want to garner attention LOL. the GTO has that stealth about it while Mustangs might as well have a bullseye on it haha. I would say GTO, better performance, more comfortable, and I know a few people who have considered both and the insurance is always a lot cheaper on the GTO.

Now that you mention it, I have seen several Mustangs pulled over on the side of the road.

I don`t know exactly,maybe more than 2 month. I need monthly payment 320-350 ,while i`m looking for a new job. Gto and Mustang suits this criteria,and than I WANT CAMARO !!!! but i cant afford it now. payment is about 800 and more for 2ss,so there is the reason. i thought about c5 corvette,but my wife got slk, so we need something bigger than 2 seats. this is now a waste of money,this car won`t leave our family!

GTO hands down. That generation mustang was no match for the LS2 GTO in performance.
