But in my opinion, that looks a million times nicer than the current Mustang (in whatever form - GT500, Laguna Seca blah blah)
No suits required, both cars are great.

I prefer the stang but dont think the comaro is bad, i just wouldnt buy one. Ingalls car in unique cars mag looked orinary to me.

But praise the lord, this one above doesnt have your typical us trashy chrome rims.

We might have good local sedans, but imagine having mustangs, comaros and challangers roaimg around!

Lol people worring about irs still...how do you want 650hp to go through a manual in a factory car for Ford money.

That is hawt!!! If they came here for similar money as the US I'd buy one in a second, only if Dodge didn't bring the Challenger here though, the Mustang rates a distant third to these 2 for me.

thanks for the links Wretched , they always look good in the factory prepared cars, and i love watching them, but you have be a bit cynical, yep it goes well, but how much time did they spend tweaking it, same as the nurburg ring, did they have a 20 strong team there tweaking everything for god knows how long before it did the best run,
if they did a pre delivery on a stocker and then ran them around the track once with these times, that would be impressive.
