Thats Right I love Shelby Mustangs

My dream car is the 67' Shelby Mustang GT500 thats on "Gone In Sixty Seconds"

[bledd]

mustang is the coolest (never driven one tho)

evo's are fun to drive!
honda integras are sweet to drive too, and a little less look at me i'm speeding than the evo

[Biohead]

For this I voted Skyline.

But the best car HAS to be the "Koenigsegg CCX2 with the Top Gear wing". That car is just smexay.

thats simply one of the best cars ever produced in my opinion. i dont like the import cars simply because of what they were/are. theyre too hard to work on too, everything is in the wrong place and they always use weird parts. stupid engineers. the only thing better about them, is the quality of the look, thats about it. everything fits together better whereas the domestic vehicles are not 100%. that sort of thing doesn;t but me in the least though, id prefer to have a domestic simply because theyre tougher and can handle more. (im talking about trucks and that)

agreed

iv driven honda's, they gutless. a 4 cylinder has almost no power, sure they can "soup" them up, but they still wont compare to classic muscle cars.

my dream car is the 1970 Chevelle SS LS6, bloody nice car. uncle has one, White pearl with blue stripes. the engine thats in it is a turbo charged 427, delivers over 900hp with nos. man driving that was a privalge

[ripken204]

i voted for the mustang although my pick is a corvette which isnt on there...

[03GrandAmGT]

Don't feel bad ripken neither was mine 1966-1967 Chevelle with a modded smallblock or the 1969 Superbird.

Here's my list.

Well let's see hear.
Toyota Supra- NOPE
Nissan Skyline- NOPE
Mitsubuishi Lancer Evo- NOPE
Mitsubushi Spyder- NOPE
Toyota Celica- NOPE
Ford Mustang-MAYBE Only if it was this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_Cobra
Acura NSX- NOPE
Nissan 350Z- NOPE
Mitsubishi Eclipse- NOPE

Chrysler Plymouth Only if it was the cuda or Daytona Superbird with the 426 Dual 4 Carb.
For those who don't know what the Superbird is. http://www.moparstyl...isplay.php?f=47
The Cuda's http://vintagecars.about.com/od/historygre...hemicuda_rw.htm

Pontiac Da Judge.
http://adcache.collectorcartraderonline.co.../4/81483784.htm

Chevy
First generation Z-28 302, 350 ci

66-67 Chevelle with a slightly modded 350 LT1

I used to run a 66 chevelle which was built for street and strip, man was that thing hot. 12.4 sec. 1/4 mile. Probably could have done better, but this was my everyday car. Cracks me up all the imports sound like a D**n mad Mosquito but don't go no where. Even my Grand Am has a Beefier sound. Right now I have a 66 Chevelle body/frame that me and my boy (He'll be 8) will start working on next year.

How do you qualify 'the best car'? Affordability, cool style and performance. If those are the qualifiers, then this one fits the bill to a tee for me. Found here. This car has no fat but is totally phat. It has one purpose and that is to drive and drive well. If you want ammenities, then look elsewhere. Check out the macromedia vids out at the bottom right of the page.

The Skyline is probably the most impressive on this list. Muscle cars have their charm but imports are about efficiency. My subaru can make the same power as that shelby and its less than half the size and it sounds beefy with the right catless turboback exhaust. Performance is more than big engine blocks and roaring beasts under the hood. It boils down to a simple ratio lbs/hp the combination of weight and power determine performance on acceleration and turns. I love the classic Muscle cars as much as the next guy but they are dinosaurs to the new generations. The Skyline will be a legendary car someday, and it will have its following for generations to come as do all legendary cars from the Ford Model-T the the Bugatti Veyron.

03GrandAmGT < i second that.

a real car is a 2007 Halltech Corvette. [which is possibly the fastest car around (after mods of course)]

specs haven't been released for it yet, don't know if theres more than 1 either.

i've seen modified big block V8's that are rockin ethanol, so don't go rippin that we have no fuel economy. in fact, i met a guy at a small local car show, his car was a beast rockin a twin turbocharged LS7 [7.0 litre V8] in a Factory Five GTM kit car...cost him a little over 130k, but he said that there isn't a car in the US that can beat it. of course, its not street legal, he's only able to take it to car shows within 10 miles of his home, any more than that and he needs a trailer.

also, imports are only fuel efficient because they have 1-3L 4 cylinder engines...thats fine, but you need to spend a lot more to get the same power you could back in the late 60's.

i'd vote for the mustang only if it was a 1969 Shotgun...[not even AC Cobra, those weren't Mustangs ..ever]

the question here was more like which car sucks more and costs less for the power. i guess i wouldn't vote for any of them, i've seen much better.
