Default Thoughts on the ongoing argument of v6 to a v8

Example: Mustang

Well, I know I like the power for sure. But the problem with the GT's are nearly a 7,000 price differnce in the newer cars not to mention the amount of gas it burns. If you use the car as a daily driver should you still get the v8? I know everyone says it's a mustang it has to have a v8. But honestly the differnce between a v6 and a v8 is .6 liters. Which isn't really that much for the amount of money you would save.

So the question is should you get a v8 for a daily driver just because v8's are "cooler"

Personally I went with

Yes, if you plan on racing no if it's just for comfort and a nice ride.

I just don't see the need for the power and all that money loss just to have a GT symbol when you can't really use the speed on streets without getting a damn ticket resulting in more money!
