It's now Tuesday. What ya got for us?

Yowza, that was a fun car, they got it right! Handles way smaller than you'd think. They did a great job of streamlining its outline too with body cladding - it just looks sleeker. They (wisely) had Camaros for comparison on autocross, drag strip, parallel parking exercises... hands down the Mustang handled better, faster, and had superior visibility. That engine is really marvelous. Once or twice I mis-shifted, but there's enough torque it didn't really matter. Really slick and the sound... pure sprung wood There's no longer any wallowing whatsoever on the autocross course - could be the bigger sway bars and the z-brace underneath. You can still tell there's a live rear axle, but the handling was really tight even on those twisty canyon roads (some of which drop off hundreds of feet...). The V6 is no slouch either. Young guys who buy this for insurance reasons aren't going to feel ripped off - the car we drove had the same suspension and twin exhaust as the GT. Sounds nice and snarly and has plenty of power.

I'll just leave this here...

MT measured the 5.0 at 4.3 sec to 60 and 12.8 at 110.8 in the quarter. Those truly are M3 numbers for half the price.

Thanks for the write up Lesley. Don't which one I want to look at more, the Mustang or the Connie in the background. I think the Connie gets the vote. Perhaps the sexiest people and trash hauler that ever flew.
