What if mustang didn't exist? What would you buy?

[Shaolin Crane]

Some of you are listing extremely high priced muscle cars....that Challenger is like a 6 figure car. If you have that kind of cash why don't you own it anyways? I thought the Fox was the poor man's play toy?

I could own a C5 vette for what i have invested in my fox

Yeah but you're talking long term investment, not plunking it down all at once. If we're talking dream cars then chalk me up for a Thunderbolt, a low miles GNX (hell they've sold on ebay recently for 90k), a Dodge Hemi Dart, a Baldwin Motion Phase 3 '70 454 Camaro and why not throw in a '69 Boss 429 to round out the bunch. I'd also like to have a garage/storage full of 427 Cammer engines for those rainy day builds.

I did large chunks, 3K+ investments at a time, if there was no mustang i would have just saved for a while and bought a used C5 i only started the build April 25th of last year, and it'll be cool seeing as it will have the stuff on it for Knotts on April 25th, thats a pretty cool anniversary to me

[FrankenStang]

I don't want to live in a world where mustang didn't excited!!!!

Huh?

I can't wrap my head around that terrible thought.

I cant wrap my mind around that terrible grammar....

I run stangs, vettes, and Ford trucks. In a world without stangs I guess I'd just be in vettes and super dutys.

Long time no see.

id cry myself to sleep honestly lol.

This car was my obsession when I was 10. Shortly there-after I was lured away by the sweet charms of the beautiful Mustang. Still a soft spot in my heart for a TC.

That was the best Ford of the 80's! 200hp & 30mpg highway, 4 wheel disc ABS, and actually could handle turns.

 

[Bullitt347]

05' Lotus Elise. Stock 190 h.p, 1900 lbs. As close to a slot car that you can get. Great power to weight. A few mods later and you have 210whp in a under 2K lb package! Having driven several of them, I can honestly say that there is no better handling car outside of $250K in the world!

 

[satanas]

One of these will do I guess

 

[EPIK]

Ok at first glance you may not be impressed but I rebuilt this from the ground up. 16v Turbo VW - 300 horses in a 1800 pound car

I can respect that, I have owned 4 VW's, & my current DD is a clean 86 Jetta GLI... any more pics?

 

[EPIK]

Hmmmmm... Life without Stangs? Lets see.....


The 1966 Chevelle Malibu SS396 is my all time favorite muscle car, but this LS7 swapped pro touring example would be the ultimate package....

I have always had a soft spot for the E39 M5.... The sleeperish look, comfort, & stance are the 1st thing that attract me to these cars, but the 400hp DOHC 5.0 V8 with 6 speed manual doesn't hurt either....

Audi RS4... This is the ultimate 4 door performance sedan IMO... 420 hp/320tq, 6 speed manual, AWD, & in a comfortable & badass looking package. This car has the perfect factory stance IMO...

American car interior can't compare to the fit & finish of these cars IMO...

 

[Tanus]

my buddy had a gti, kinda like that, think its the euro grill or something, pretty cool car, handled excellent

other buddy has a 54 bug, n/a 1915, super fast, crazy fast, pull the front wheels at like 50mph

 

[foxmustangman]

Honestly though, I've always wanted a Fiat X1-9.

 

[CrescentWrench]

Pontiac G8 GXP (or GT) 6.2L V-8 = 400+ horsepower and 402 lb.-ft. of torque

 

[WLDHRSE]

Long time no see.

I'd drive my Mercury Capri.

yep, I got tied up...


And, I'd drive your Capri too!
I see it doesn't look quite the same anymore.
