If all I cared about was being the fastest on the street I'd put together another 'Stang with the parts I took off the old one slap on some NOS or a blower and run 1000+ HP but that's not what I (key word I) want. I want a nice daily driver 4x4 and a fun weekend cruiser and I've got them both. The important thing here is not what I think is cool or the best, it's what the person who owns another type of car sees as his/her "dream car" Let's face it, P-cars are great little under powered sports cars. Even modified they can't reach "ricer" or V8 power levels but that's not the point. P-cars are just great little cars out of the box designed for curvy roads and not dragstrips, the V8's will most likely always reign supreme in the HP war because they are just a fantasitic base to build upon and parts are relatively cheap, now try and make a musclecar handle and brake like a sports car and you're wallet will bleed
To each his own, there is no point in flaming other peoples vehicles. Enjoy your car because YOU like it and let other's enjoy theirs.
The most intelligent post I've read on here so far! AMEN!!
