The important piece of that is the truck is 700lbs lighter due to an aluminum body and expected to get 25+mpg. The Ford CEO was on CBS this morning stating that they are expecting to eventually make that move with all their products. So it looks like an aluminum bodied Mustang is the future before long!

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Mustang glass roof option is only like $1600, so I would imagine probably around there.
