Default GT Wanna Be

Hello guys.

I am a muscle car admirer at present and do not own one.
Have been getting my speed fix on bikes the last few years.
Current ride 08 Hayabusa.

Any how just checking in, I owned a 68 coupe and a 73 Mach 1 about a lifetime ago and got interested in the Mustang again in 05 when the retro came out but was disappointed with the GT interior and cant afford the 500 so I held off.

Test drove a 10 last weekend and liked the new interior much better.

Must confess to also liking the Challenger but Chrysler is now run by Obama and my feelings about that are mixed.

Considered the camaro for about the first 10 seconds until I saw one and threw up in my mouth a little bit...OK alot...

Figured the Mustang might be down on power but the rest is good.

Easier to add power than fix ugly so I will pester you a while if you dont mind.

I thought it was Government Motors that was run by Obama now. Neighbor has a 6 speed challenger r/t... it's actually incredibly awesome.

Say what you want, I saw one on the highway the other day and (although I was late on the gas and I have a crap slushbox auto) the thing took off like I was standing still. I think those have a 6.2 liter though... makes me feel better.

Sounds good. I was looking for used cars for a while and I ruled out all GM/Chrysler corp products because they may soon be harder to get parts for, there cars values may decrease etc... There dealerships are dropping like flies and that makes me uneasy about buying a car from them. Go with ford, after all the mustang has had a continuos run from 19641/2 to present.
