Both are creditable pieces of design in their own way, but why does Ford (and the American car buying public + GM + Chrylser) think that bringing back 'retro' anything is so "cool"? It forces design wrong, it handcuffs engineering improvement. It boggles my mind, always has. I thought western culture was a forward looking society?...guess you can throw that concept out the window ... gauges you can't read, axles that hop....but oh yea...I forgot...they're all going out of business anyway...too bad NOT.
Long live the quest for the perfect affordable (modern) sports car! We're getting close

1 Down!
Camaro & Challenger to go so there are no more American Muscle versus Z questions. ![]() Not an expert but I would guess that the Mustang had the best shot. Camaro and Challenger are to heavy. May beat the Z in the straights when there is a battle but not the twisties. As has been stated over and over again. Conclusion: 0-60 and 1/4 mile arent everything especially when you only equal your opponent makes you a 1 trick pony
