Go for it. I bought a focus over the mustang for family reasons. I think I regret it every day!!!

is this thing going to be a handful in the snow?

Not with the right tires. If you remember, some of us grew up driving rear wheel drives

and we all know how fun they can be

and how tires really do make a difference
when in doubt. Join tcstangs and ask those guys how they handle

My father drives his 05 GT Mustang during the winter with snow tires and it handles it quite nicely.

I'm a Ford man at heart so I'd like to see you buy the stang, but . . .
For some odd reason I like these things too,
or the sister car,
I don't exactly know why but I like the "roadster" look right now and with a 5.5 second 0-60 time I guess you can't really bitch about lack of power. Then there is the origanality factor along with resale.

I would vote for the Saturn sky over the Mustang, I know it's heresy but I have driven my bosses '06 GT convertible and it's a big fat pig compared to my SVT. Maybe not a fair comparison but it's all I got.
The Mustang is smooth and nice on the freeway but it's just not my style.
Gotta say no to the Solstice though, That front end is just too ugly.
