Mustang is a good car, but the Challenger and Camaro will outclass it. The GT 6k less then the SS? That would make the GT start at 24k?
Ford lists it down as 26.5k for a base GT. Start adding options, and 30k is right there.
For more then 41k for an SRT8, you could probably pick up a Camaro Z28 come next year, making well north of 500hp. And perhaps magnetic ride control.
There will be 4 customizable interior colors, so thoes inserts in the door as well as on the dash will be options.
And if its like the CTS, or any other car, its a very very low light, and even at night wont do much other then supply a very low light to the interior. Boon brought down an S550, and they have this lighting.
A few new CTS's i have been in have it tied in with the dimmer switch as well.

The Mustang GT comes in two versions; the deluxe and premium. At the dealership we ordered a bare bones deluxe GT stick and the window sticker was like 24,300. All the premium is is leather interior and the ability to order more options, as some aren't available in the deluxe. The only major downside to the Mustang is that the factory bottom end in the 4.6 will only hold up to about 470hp safely, which is why Roush wont go over 435hp, and Saleen wont go over 465hp. In the Saleen S302 cars and the S281-E cars, they're all Saleen built motors, and the Shelby GT500 uses the DOHC engine similar to the '03 - '04 Cobra motors. I'm sure the new Camaro motor will be built a bit stronger.
The ambient lighting is a really cool option, my brother has it in his Mustang. Theres no dimmer though, so if it gets annoying you just turn it off. Whats cool about it is you can change the gauges color too to match the ambient lighting.
