Someone sent me an email to go to this link, and I was like wtf. I suspect the op is just being an idiot; no Mustang tops the 458 in reality. The only Ferrari a GT500 will barely keep up with today is the California T. 😊

Id take the GT, Its more my type of car, the shape of the 458 is better, and has a nicer interior, but i like the GT500 engine and sound better, and fits to more my lifestyle. but to be honest i dont really care which one id take, i couldnt complain.

The Ferrari 458 Italia is like a hot or athletic girl with a beautiful body. (This is a picture of Allison Stokke.)
The Ford/SVT Shelby Mustang GT500 with more than 650 horsepower is like a strong/smart/athletic man with strong muscles like this! (That is a picture of Kobe Bryant.)

Ford certainly can make powerful engines, and the heavy shifting Tremec transmission is bullet proof. The Ferrari has all the advantages of a dedicated sports car platform however (mid-engine, low center of gravity, good aerodynamics). The Ford is well priced though since you are purchasing a powerful engine, big brakes, strong transmission, etc. that is all placed in a mainstream, compromised, front heavy (already paid for since it is old) platform. It is too bad Ford can't make an inexpensive mid-engine sports car for its great engines (the Ford GT was not inexpensive!!).
