What year? There were a plethora of "Mustang GTs" built and they varied widely in design.

My favorite? 1970 E-body 'Cuda with small block. (Not the AAR version, it was too "boy racer" even for a teenager.)

H2O and fluid respectable.....

Come on chevelles and mustangs? Pshh...

Throw me in a Shelby Cobra any day... or a Shelby GT 500.

Me and my father have a 1977 trans AM Firebird... bucaneer red... 4 speed, t tops... everything you could want. Things a beauty. We're looking to build a cobra kit or really build up a Nova.

You dog chevelles and mustangs but talk about building a camaro copy car or a nova.
I take offense to your comment. I have put a lot of pride and time into my car. You dont have to like what I like, but to say what I have isnt respectable is just disrespectful and ignorant. You can kiss H20 and Fluids asses all you want, but you have some maturing to do.

Aaah..The good ol' days. When I was younger, It was Ford vs. Chevy vs. Mopar. So I built a Pontiac Trans Am. Now its just what gets me around reliably. Sorry Fiat and Yugo! But if I win the Lotto....'71 Pontiac GTO with a 455 HO or a Hurst Olds 442 or a Mercury Cyclon 429 boss or a Chevelle SS 454 LS6 or a BOSS Mustang or a Hemi 'Cuda or a Pantera or a.....

Lots of favorites, but one that stands out at the moment is the 69 COPO Camaro with aluminum 427 big block...skinny tires...small plain hubcats. The new 2012 ZL1 Camaro is nice also.

I am a car nut... my first car when I was 16 (I am 33 now) was my 1988 Ford Mustang 5.0L Coupe w/5spd Tranny.... boy some good times were had in that car...lol... nowadays I like Chevy and Cadillacs (Have too its how I afford to play with these toys as I am a Sales Manager at a Car Dealership) I also have always been fond of BMW's.... I bought this BMW Convertible 330ci for the old lady to drive this summer... quite fast, very smooth, oh so comfy... and just a very nice car.... this one came with the optional hardtop... I just put the 19" ASA wheels on her... brought it to life quite well.... I have always had a thing for porsche 911/996's too... I need one of them bad...lol.

Love all cars, but I'm having a ton of fun with my modern GTO. Full exhaust, cam, and a blower = some good times. I'd love a classic goat, but couldn't afford to buy one in the condition I'd want

Haha come on mate... get off your bum! It was just a joke.... Haven't you ever joked around with a buddy? "Oh that things a boat anchor... nah my paint scheme blows your doors off" There was no offense meant in "pshh"... It's just simply someone throwing in a little poke for fun... if I wanted to offend someone I would have said man your car really sucks... and meant it. As far as I'm concern you can't really tell what my intent was from 'pshh' especially since its really hard to read into a one word comment. On that note I apologize if I offended you... There was no ill intention and like I said... I've got a car and I'm well aware of what goes into it. Time... money... work... love. I'm not stupid.


Again sorry... no ill intent.


But ya cobras rule!
And for the record practically every car is a copy of another some sort... relax! and sorry.

1962 IMPALA LOWRIDER

You guys want to talk about hard work and lots of it, just look in a lowrider magazine, there aint no Chips or Boyds doing nothing that compares to the amount of detail put in to top notch lowriders. Love them or hate them every TRUE car guy should respect them!! To each there own, its what makes the owner happy.

Porsche 911 (as it's commonly known) any year, simply the most refined car on the road, never a full re-design in all it's years, just constant tweaking in pursuit of the ultimate driving car.
Never had any interest in North American pig iron after the mid 50's. Anything can go fast in a straight line given enough power. Real cars turn both left and right as well as stop!

Ferrari F40 for me.

Not as fast or as sophisticated as modern supercars, but I just love them and I'm sure driving one would scare the heck out of me! Saw one at a motor show a few years back on display with an F50 and an Enzo - the newer two just didn't have the same character or mean-ness about them.

Either a 914 with some work (993 engine, modern suspension, wider fenders):

1966 Chevy C-10 custom cab with big back window and original working tach. Set on '78 Chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 frame with Dana 60 front and 14 bolt rear with a 396 and truck 4-speed. New trucks and cars for that matter are boring and have zero body lines. I agree with Ryan on new cars handling and fast, but they just don't look as good as the old ones.

If Muscle cars don't look good why are Dodge, Ford and Chevy spending so much money trying to make new cars look like them ?
People like the retro look, can you imagine if Chevy came out with something that looked like a 57 Chevy with a LS motor and a six speed.

It's not an SVO, just a GT. It's non intercooled and has a 7.5" rear end. There where few made, only 412. Quite a bit rarer than the SVO's.
