    Drastic Price Drop in Value in the 99-04 Mustang GT's

    Most people buy Mustangs because they like the way they look. Not because of resale/mpg/fastest car. What's the gas mileage like on your two cars? One source I found states 20-27mpg for an '03 WRX, 19-25 for an '07 STi, and 17-25 mpg for a '99-04 Mustang GT. Doesn't seem like much of a...

    omg...It's HIDEOUS!

    That's kinda neat. I noticed the rim on the car looked kind of like a Mustang rim. Sure enough, the car uses a Mustang as it's starting point.

    Just added this to my collection with my current 2001 Mustang GT

    First off, old Chargers came with automatics also. I know it's hard to accept. If you've ever seen a '66-67 Charger, that's what the new one looks more like. The '66-67 even looks big enough to be a 4-door, and they're huge on the inside. If you look at the first Charger and not the...

    Question about the NEW Mustang

    You talk about looks, and forgot the 79-93. The one Mustang that had nothing at all that made me think it might be a Mustang. A 2-door Fairmont does not look like a Mustang should. It was the plainest Mustang ever made. :shrug:

    Street Racing Kills 7!

    Found another article about it. The car who hit people had nothing to do with the racing. Do they usually ticket people for watching a street race? I would say they were at fault for the whole mess. :shrug: http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/02/16/drag.race.deaths.ap/index.html?eref=rss_mostpopular

    Are you serious

    Not my cup of tea, but I'm curious. Did they say how much power it's making? This is the only mention of power I saw, and it's all guessing. Nothing proving the power of the car. :shrug:

    Street Racing Kills 7!

    From the article. So uh... it wasn't the street racers who crashed, it was some other person. They focus on the racers, who didn't hit the crowd, and say nothing about the driver of the car who plowed into people. Who was he? How was he involved? Was he intoxicated? Did he do it on purpose...

    For those of you who have raced at VIR

    http://www.caranddriver.com/features/11755/the-lightning-lap-2006.html The Cobalt SS’s supercharged Ecotec engine collaborated with an excellent gearbox to charge down the straights with authority. The result was a maximum speed of 117.1 mph and a lap time of 3:20.6 — four to five seconds...

    Anybody bother to record MPG on their steeds?

    In my 1966 6cyl C4, 260k+ miles 100% city driving, 18-22 mpg. I don't drive it on the freeway often. 2001 GT auto 93k+ miles, average 19-21 in city. On a road trip 310.4 miles on one tank, 75% hwy, I got my best of 24.3 mpg. Both cars stock.

    Guys, i think I'm losing my mind...

    lol. You think you're open minded because you smoke weed? You've got to be joking. I would have said you're being childish and don't know when to stop whining because you're a "stonner." You compare aftermarket headlights for an $84k car to aftermarket headlights for a $24k car. Hmm.. I...

    1994 Ford Mustang Boss 10.0L Concept

    Duke out in Detroit Here's the article about the 1994 Boss Mustang Vs. Camaro ZL1. It's pretty good, and explains a lot about the cars. Yeah, I had to read it again... it's awesome.

    Glass Roof in a GT500?

    I thought the stripes were optional? They didn't have to have them? Pretty sure I've seen at least a couple GT500's with no stripes.

    Who would Win???

    Well, if you don't win, you still have the best looking car out of the 3. The Saleen would be nice, but the rims don't go with the rest of the car. The yellow one... ugh. Way too much crap. Yeah, I always thought that was kinda.. odd.

    350Z vs GT

    Let's see... He's got 287hp to your 260hp. He weighs about 240lbs less. If he can launch he would get you from a dig. And depending on how well the transmission shifts while at speed, into it's powerband, he would get you from a roll as well. He would have killed you in the...
