Default Baddest Car EVER!

I was looking out the window in my office yesterday afternoon when I saw the most awesome car ever on the back of a truck. Apparently this car is so badass it needs to be chained down to keep it from getting away. I think I'm selling my GT and getting one of these bad boys.

LOL, that's funny. Interesting way to market the car, but I'm sure it got some attention.

from a marketing perspective, what a terrific campaign - pricy, and grassroots, but impressive nevertheless.

I hate to say it, but I kinda agree. I almost got that car before I bought the stang. But I really wanted a true muscle car and that little roadster just doesn't compare to my GT. I am happy w/ the decision I made! I love my mustang!!!!!!!!!!

PS The new Saturn roadster is pretty bad a$$ too!

my stepfather alerted me to the saturn version with spyphotos before it was released... i was researching my mustang purchase at the time but was very interested in the sky. americn made, rwd, two door, not too expensive.

then i saw photos of the "trunk" totally killed it for me. my 92 mr2 had more space than that... total let down to see that you can't pack anything in it.

that's why i drive a stang.

They're suppose to be coming out with a 265 h.p. version this year. 265 h.p. should make that little car pretty quick, I was thinking about getting one myself but 177 h.p. at the time just seemed to underpowered. Pretty tight fit for a big guy, but it is a good looking sports car, wish I could talk my wife into trading her P.T. cruiser in on one,\.

I like the styling of the Saturn better. Sat in one at the great state fair of Texas. At 6'5" I fit in it about as well as I fit in my mom's 79 alfa romeo spider. My wife wouldn't mind having one though.
