My big issue with the new car for me is the weight. My car is probably at least 400 lbs lighter than the new car, it was a stripper other than PP1 and it's been partially gutted. No way I'm interested in a heavier car than what I've already got.
If I was going to lay out 100K on a car (that's about what the new Mustang is up here, properly spec'd) I'd prolly buy a 'vette, they sell in that price range up here. Couple of guys run C8's with the track day group I'm with and they seem to be totally fine on the track. Though to be honest they run in a lower group than I'm in and I don't really know how hard they're being pushed, could be they're "grand touring". But they certainly don't come in smoking and puking fluids.
