^------10x better -
thats just like, your opinion, man...
glad you are enjoying it
i think lots of people got the gen 1's expecting them to be something they were not ( fast as a rocket and as big as a surburban).. thats why so many buyers traded in / sold their gen 1's for the gen 2's. I do like the color of the rs5.0 quite a bit, i just think of the gen2 as the bastard step brother, who always gets good grades, does everything right, never gets in trouble.... you want to HATE him, but you really can't!
Post up some pics of your gold Rs5.0!

Congrats!

RS1 would be nice to have and hard to find! Did it trade well? I hope the dealer gave you what it was worth.

Yet, more and more gen 1 owners are trading in for gen 2s.

Horrible? I've had horrible, and I can tell ya this ain't it. Built 89 Mustang 5.0 - 9mpg. 02 Blazer ZR2 - 13mpg.

08 xB - 24mpg. Pretty sweet, considering the 06 xB I had for two years never got over 27mpg with me behind the wheel. I'll gladly give up 3mpg for more than 50% more power.
