I'm a Ford guy and I still don't understand the amazing amount of love for the Terminator. Yes, the car was very fast, particularly when modded, but in almost every other respect it was a seriously compromised car. The GT500 is literally a better car in every respect, without exception. I would consider a SN95 Mach-1 or a Terminator, but only because of the excellent power-trains and then only if they were substantially cheaper than any comparable 05 or newer Mustang.

I appreciate every generation of Mustang, but I also understand where each generation lies on the proverbial totem pole. Each to their own I suppose.

Some people would say the same thing about the ford lovers, so it all evens out in the end.

The Cobras from that time have a ton of potential with little money spent and they will always a performance bargain.

If I remember correctly there little if any difference power wise in the Z or SS. That was a nice marketing gimick and they were all under rated if memory serves me. I seem to remember the C5 owners not liking it too much when the Z would lay down the same numbers but could not show it on paper. The Mach 1 was also under rated by Ford. They I think were scared from the 99 Cobra fiasco.

Love the Mach 1s...

Kind of the opposite here... As much as I love Mustangs... I just can't warm up to the new 2010... so, yeah, i take some ribbing from all my Mustang friends... LOL

Honestly they first need to fire the idiot designer who wrecked the mustang then hire someone who actuallys knows what the hell they are doing. Go look at the lines on the 2010 mustang its all messed up and dont even get me started on the rear end of it.

I agree. Since we are talking about rear end's, that is the biggest thing that turned me off about the Camaro as well.

That is the beauty of opinions. I totally disagree with you. I like the 2010 Mustang and even the new rear end. On the other hand the 2010 Camaro is just plain ugly to me. To each his own.
