> _Originally posted by Quik_ > **Mustang \> GTP for the same price. adn you forgot about the car that first started the S/C 3800 the regal GS** wrong… the Riviera had it… then they nixed it, and gave it to the Regal and I’m sorry, but the Mustang does not have the same comforts as the GTP, as well as the standard options, luxuries etc etc. Mustang is a pony car. GTP is a luxury sports sedan/coupe its more competition for the Nissan Maxima, Cadillac CTS, Audi A4. etc etc Where it may not win in all categories, it outshuns a lot of the competition. ---
