Coming home from work I came across a white hatchback and decided to stalk him for lack of anything to do. Followed him to the edge of town and onto this country road, about 10 minutes total. The sound of both our cars was a warbling symphony of muscle. He knew I was there because I could see him looking back at me. So, the car in front of him turns and he stomps the pedal, smoke shoots out the exhaust and he friggin smokes me. I'm bone stock and I know this white hatch DEFINATELY wasn't stock.

Completely freakin' smoked me and it made my day. There aren't a lot of foxes around here, and that was the first one I'v seen actually worth following.

Just sharing the joy.

Oh this thing was just friggin cherry. 5 lug torque thrust wheels, cobra brakes (from what I could see) and I couldn't tell what was in it but it sounded bored or maybe a stroker.

I saw his face in his rearview mirror. Huge smile right before he stomped the gas.
My smile was after he stopmed it. lol

I dont see a lot of foxes in Portland, but I see at least one a day on the westside of Portland. I wonder who that fox belongs to.

I've been wanting to find some fox guys in the portland area. 3 of the foxes I've seen are parked behind the Ford dealership and belong to the mechanics there.

If anyone lives in or around portland, hit me up and I'll buy you a beer. I'm tired of the rice here.

Keep an eye on the NW forum they usually post the meets there . We usually meet at the 24hr SB in beaverton, at one of the shops, or at PIR.

It would be nice to see more foxes, and maybe plan a cruise to the coast.

More crap ones for sale by me. And a few good ones zipping around on the road.
I have seen
- Yellow vert
- Burgandy Gt
- Mettalic Orange Gt
- Blue LX

Like 5 red Lx's/ GTs and 1 Vert for sale. The vert looks nice.. others.. Bleh.


Tons of stupid ricers... But most American muscle cars put them out daily..

Its in the regional part of the stangnet forum, under "NW Discussion". Usually people post up Stang events on there that are in the PDX/Vancover area.

lol you guys are way to serious on this site. But i personally follow fox bodys as well. The cleanest fox i've seen around was a maroon '85 T-top with 52k. I asked him if it was for sale, but he said no ha. He bought it knew. Some old guy who'd never modify it. Perfectly happy with it being stock. lol i wish i could be that happy with a stock car. Then i wouldn't have to spend thousands on modifying it ha.

I live in New Jersey, right outside of Philadelphia, and I see Foxes all the time. I kind of wish I had it like you guys where I don't see them so often. I think that would be cool. A lot of the fox drivers around here are douche bags. I have the mentality like " Oh, awesome, another 5.0 Mustang" and they drive past me and rev their engines like "My car is better than yours, but I have a small weenie."

What's even cooler than that, is our local car club has a few cruise ins throughout the year...a couple years ago there was a really big turnout, and all the guys from different sides of town met up at different locations and then drove out to the meeting place together..

So, all the guys on our side of town met up at this Lowes hardware store. Well for one, it ended up being the same meeting place as a local Miata club....you can imagine the look on their faces when we rolled up 36+ Mustangs into the same parking lot....considering a lot of the cars were serious Mustangs that probably should've been trailered. Then, we ended up getting a police escort out of the parking lot because there were so many of us..

So, if you think 2 Mustangs sound awesome together, imagine 36 strong rumbling down the highway!
