I love Mustangs. If I didn't already have an M3 with a big V8, a Mustang GT would be on my short list. They have become seriously good cars.

Once I owned a Porsche, rather it owned me. I was then a sophisticated and very elite human. A member of a somewhat secret society. All because of a car..

I sold it and bought a Ford Mustang. Suddenly I became a right wing Nazi redneck with a strong desire to run into pedestrians and other cars.

I suppose it's good for Ford that many disagree with you. Some of them even review cars for a living. Funny pic of a Mustang that (sorta) survived a tornado there.

For your listening (dis?)pleasure, the beginning of this Autoblog podcast covers the '19 Bullitt Mustang. A few minutes to listen...

Either bottom feed, or has enough thermal mass for one run.

The front splitter inclines to believe the latter.

Yeah, but if you think of it, there are also a lot of people that vote for Trump or Billary
The masses are a poor excuse for anything really.

There's a future documentary about that, called

Just curious, do you hate all American cars or just Mustangs?
