An easily modifiable V-8 with 500 horsepower, 480Ft/lb of torque way down low with a manual 6 speed transmission. Acceleration is instantaneous and the sound of the supercharger at WOT is intoxicating. Easily to most entertaining car I have ever owned.
My previous Mustang (88 GT) lasted 15 years (before it was stolen never to be seen again) with no major problems other than normal wear and tear, it too was exceedingly fun to drive.
Over 40 years of continous history much of it record breaking and very colourful. It defined the early pony car and survived fuel crunchs, tightening emission standards and downsizing (mustang II) while its competitors died.
