Of those choices I'd pick raptor or mustang.

The only way I will ever buy a NEW car is if it's a toy of some sort. One that will not be used as a daily driver that I will have probably the rest of my life. High end mustang since you like mustangs......Probably a corvette for me personally.

I'd never buy a brand new daily driver....my round trip to work everyday is 10 miles. My daily drivers are sub-$5,000 dollar beaters that I drive till they die, throw away and buy another.

Just my two cents....If dropping the kind of cash it takes to buy a brand new car....it's gonna be something badass that I'll keep forever, not a daily driver that gets used for 10 years and then tossed for something else.

Got 11.4 average on the way home. Kansas head winds killed me going there.

you can get a restored m35a2 deuce and a half for around $25k and spend the other $65k on a raptor

If I was you I wouldn't spend 55-60,000.00 on anything that didn't MAKE money.

The IS-F is a hellofa car its got a v8 and 8speed with paddle shifters. its got around 400ish HP if i remember right, and it drives as smooth as you would imagine a lexus would with a nice sporty suspension. I havent been able to test drive the mustang yet but I would imagine the IS-F is just slightly slower than the stock GT. though i could be way off on that. From what I hear the new GT is very fast.
I have an Evo X and love it. It's versatility is what sold me on it, and the fact that I got it "used" two weeks old with 1500 miles for a little over $15,000 less than the jackass pained two week prior. It's been a solid car, it just goes threw tires and brake pads fast

Mustang? I wouldn't buy a car with only two doors.

Raptor? It's an over priced 1/2ton pickup. Get a diesel or get a car! Gas trucks are pointless.

GT-R? Badass, still only has two doors.
