Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / August 2005just saw......
Just saw my first 2005 muzy in the flesh at Glasgow airport, Scotland this morning...dark blue metalic ,good looking car...I would swop my '66 coupe for that !...which is more than I would say for the '74 to '94 versions......what a waste of 20years...looks just as easy to design a good looking car as a bad one..... sorry I meant to say '74 to '04....30 years!!! My first car was a used '74 Pintostang with an underwhelming 171 engine. While it really didn't measure up to the earlier Mustangs, that car has a soft spot in my heart. It was a good first car that I really treated poorly. When I was 18 I bought a new '79. I loved that car. Today my son drives an '80 2-door that we've been working on for the past 4 years. I don't consider these "bad" cars by any stretch of the imagination. > Just saw my first 2005 muzy in the flesh at Glasgow airport, Scotland this > morning...dark blue metalic ,good looking car...I would swop my '66 coupe > for that !...which is more than I would say for the '74 to '94 > versions......what a waste of 20years...looks just as easy to design a good > looking car as a bad one..... : Just saw my first 2005 muzy in the flesh at Glasgow airport, Scotland this : morning...dark blue metalic ,good looking car...I would swop my '66 coupe : for that !...which is more than I would say for the '74 to '94 : versions......what a waste of 20years...looks just as easy to design a good : looking car as a bad one.....

Good people but the cars were kinda sucky... : ) Ford Anglia, Vauxhall, etc.... I do believe that it is a real challenge to actually design and produce an ugly car.... I'm reminded of the Edsel, Aztec, and a few others through the intervening years.... considering all the people who have to be convinced that the public will scoop them up, and the company is not going to lose any money on them. Even some Mustang IIs are getting hot.... So, in all those years, and one of the reasons it still exists, there seems to be something for every taste 'cause people have continued to buy them. >> And thats why your family never left the 'old world' I imagine? taste? :) > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >Another one with no taste..... :~) Spike 1965 Ford Mustang fastback 2+2 A Code 289 C4 Trac-Lok Vintage Burgundy w/Black Standard Interior; Vintage 40 16" rims w/BF Goodrich Comp T/A gForce Radial 225/50ZR16 KDWS skins; surround sound audio-video.

I know I said 2005 and older than '74 were the best looking Mustangs ...but I have to say the '71/ '73 coupe (back window) and the '67/'68 fastbacks (slope shouldn't have gone all the way to the tail) were not very pleasing....from some angles..... >I know I said 2005 and older than '74 were the best looking Mustangs ...but >I have to say the '71/ '73 coupe (back window) and the '67/'68 fastbacks >(slope shouldn't have gone all the way to the tail) were not very >pleasing....from some angles..... Settle down, Jim. "No taste" simply means "doesn't agree with me." It's irrelevant what anyone thinks of a car's design, other than those who choose to buy one. The VW Thing was sold to quite a few folks who had no taste. The current Scion box is absolutely horrid, but that's only MY opinion - they seem to sell well enough. Frankly, some of the classic designs that are held up as automotive sculpture do little for me. That's what opinions are for. How boring, if we all thought alike. Come to think of it, if we all thought the same about beauty, there would have been far too much competition over the woman who eventually became my wife... So, you say you have a '66. That style must have pleased your eye. And between '66 and 2005, you haven't met a Mustang you liked... All well and fine. Frankly, I saw the '66 as a huge disappointment, and a styling faux pas that Ford didn't fix until the release of the Fox-body in 1979. The penultimate design styling, the year in which Ford finally got the Mustang perfected, was 1993.

Hell, you have to BUY the food on airplanes here these days. Or grab something before you board. It's insane. Yes, I watch TV but try to avoid the news except in the morning I watch the locals sometimes, usually for the weather. Why do you ask? Unless one were planning a trip on BA (is that the same as BOAC?) not much point in paying attention. American airlines have been having problems off and on for decades. I'd be more concerned if my flight to see my daughter on this continent was cancelled/on strike/etc. As for the food, cardboard is cardboard. I'd just as soon make a stop at Burger King or McDucks... or if I'm feeling in an evil mood... stop at Taco Hell and get lots of gassy stuff.... : 0 ) I have flown on a couple of trans Pacific flights which had excellent fare. Royal Thai, JAL, Quantas were all quite good. So was SAS in Europe.

With all of the flying I've done in the past, I've never boarded an airplane looking forward to the meal. In fact, I have never eaten airline food. Just give me coffee. Or that warm brown water that passes for coffee. I'll eat before or after the flight, but not during. (Usually, I'm glued to the window anyway, enjoying the view.) Of course, I've never been on a flight longer than six hours, no transatlantic stuff. For that, I'd probably pack a Snickers bar. dwight er the flight, but not during.
