You only live once - ship the GXP over
Nothing like a stripper on the 'Ring - buy a GT
In the interest of providing some closure, I bought the Mustang. Looked pretty hard at a 2005 GTO and considered my options to effectively lease a new M3, but the track pack/Recaro seat/stick combo in the Mustang won me over. Car still has to get loaded on the boat, so it probably won't be here until the end of Nov...just in time for snow

I think you'll be happy with it and it won't be a dime a dozen car over there like the Bimmer would be.
