My wife wasn't sure if she could get use to driving a wider car so I told her that I would get her a another new car if she wants to then I'll sell the GXP and I'll just have to drive the SRT8.

Upgrade over an 06 Mustang for sure, but why not get a 5.0 Mustang? SRTs are nice and all, but I'd rather mine or a '11 GT any day.
