Hmm, why I chose the Mustang. I will try to make a long story short.
As I was groing up my father was into racing his cars at the track (both Ford and GM cars) and I was the only kid of 6 that wanted to get into the racing with him.
Time passed, I moved out started my own family yada yada yada, Then my dad bought the Mach1 and I just loved the car, he hardly ever drove it but when he did it was balls out.
A few years ago he passed away and the Mach was still in his name and the banks, well I could never stand to see someone else with the car so I paid off the loan on the car and took it.
As for Mustang vs Camaro/TA,   I like them all, and its different strokes for different folks....

longevity of mustangs makes them hard to beat. my old 89 5.0 5 speed had 240,000 miles when i sold it to my brother in law, and he still drives it almost every day. the engine was never touched, and the t5 rebuilt one time. now, my 99 gt 5 speed has 70,000 miles and is still going strong. hope it does as good as the 5.0!

Honestly, **** you.  I still think you're full of **** on everything you've ever said about your car and I will continue to do so until you provide any shred of proof otherwise.  Go buy a damn camera for crying out loud.



He actually sent me a timeslip but I'll be damned if I can't find it. I think it was 13 flat, not too shabby.

Ya that one was 13.1 @109.7mph, on a 2.03 60', with an 8.5 @ 85 1/8.  Only mods were 4.10s, intake, and pulleys.  Stock rubber.  98, you have PM.
