o well yeah those 70's and 80's are ugly. i thought we were talking about the 90's-2000 ones. yeah the price tag is very high, but lets say money didnt matter, and you had the money to afford a ferrari. would you still take a roush or saleen??
i do take pride in my country. But cars are a different story. just because you live in US, doesnt mean you have to be loyal to domestics. i agree the roush is a nice car, but taking a mustang over a ferrari?? the roush produces 360hp, whereas a modena produces 400hp. and a modena looks way better then a mustang, even if it is a roush. saying you'd take a mustang over a ferrari, is saying that youd pretty much take a mustang over an aston martin, viper, and lamborghini. but its your opinion, its up to you.

s**t if money didnt matter id go buy a murcielago, the one thing i dont get about lambo is, made in europe, with spanish names ex "diablo", "murcielago" but their not made in spain...
o yeah forgot the aston martin was owned by ford. but it still isnt really made by ford. so to me, its still a different company. i prefer ferraris and you prefer mustangs. its all good. i pretty much live a rich lifestyle. my parents have owned numerous european cars. so i guess it goes back to that. thats why im into euros i guess. i guess all the rich people drive euros then.

good idea, but what funny is 10% of that is enough to get a great car, the 03 cobra, and even at that much ur getting ripped so maybe some suspension mods could get it up to 37,500

IF money werent a problem. I think maybe a Ferrari F40. A cool car and relatively quick. Also a chick magnet. For domestic, I would rather build something than to buy a new one. If its already depreciated then I am really not losing money. More like investing. ie. Musclecars from the 60's and even some of the 70's cars. 2nd gen Firebirds are really cheap and can be made to run hard really easy. Early fox mustangs are lighter and can fit cool engines like Clevelands. For the cost of the payment on a new one every month, I can build something cheaper that will beat the snot out of a new one in just a few months. Paying $100k for any car is ludicrus to me. Paying more than $6k to run 11's is also something I wont do. I'm a cheap bastige, and there isnt anything I cant build of fix on any car built in the USA since 1950. But not everyone is like that. What would be nice is to have one of the last Fbody's from GM, an 03 Cobra, the Ford GT and a even a Viper. Its just not gonna happen, so I will stick to building rides that look as though they wont do 100mph fallin off a cliff that can embarrass any of the above mentioned cars. Ever been beaten by an ugly car that sounds like crap? He is having fun at your expense. Just how I am, you dont have to be like me.
