I like it, A LOT!! Very nice! Let's keep our fingers crossed the next one will follow this look.

Now, a Racing-Kart on a tighter track would take the Limey. They're apples teh oranges. ;^) SignatureTropic Green Y2K Mustang GT W/bits & pieces http://tinyurl.com/eh99n >>>> http://www.stangnet.com/Ford-Mustang-News/2010-Ford-Mustang-061116.html >>> [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > the Lotus to lap the Stang.

They're apples teh oranges. ;^) Given that the Lotus is an ultra low weight, no frills small car dedicated to performance, and the Mustang is a luxury land boat by comparison, I expected it to $hit hammer the Mustang by a mile. Especially after two laps. Maybe the Mustang had a very good driver and the show's host isn't that skilled. Anyway, a car that does 0-60 in 4 seconds flat and is very light weight should destroy a bone stock Mustang GT by more than I saw in the video. Plus, they didn't give a time comparison. Maybe it was closer than they cared to admit? >>>>> http://www.stangnet.com/Ford-Mustang-News/2010-Ford-Mustang-061116.html >>>> [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > Mustang GT by more than I saw in the video.

Well it's a "Triumph of British Engineering" Ha!

I drove a Spitfire through college and it would have been an awesome car with about 200 hp. Unfortunately, it only had 56 hp. The Lotus is a triumph over the Triumph I owned. But for $62k is better well surpass it. I would like for them to run it against a Corvette. > I drove a Spitfire through college and it would have been an awesome car > with about 200 hp.

MSRP on a Z06 is $68,590.00. But it only seats two:) Think the Corvette might hold its resale value a little longer:) Happy Thanksgiving, all.

Guess I am not the only one thinking it has a good shot at being another footnote in mustang history like this car: http://www.desoto58.com/dreamcar/ford/milano72.jpg >> I caught those in Google News, and it looks fantastic.

I was going to say just wait a year or so and you will be able to buy one from DC.

It wasn't something I would buy but for the oil embargo days of the early 1970s it was a rare high point for automotive performance, IMHO. >>>>> http://www.desoto58.com/dreamcar/ford/milano72.jpg >>>> That's a Challenger from the door forward.

[quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > Yeah. The mid engined car built by DeTomaso that used a 351C. Here's a > link: http://www.panteraclub.com/pantera.htm Over all comments on thread. I do like the styling of the Mustang, it is very similar to the Shelby concept car at the recent auto shows. Vs the Lotus. Apples and Oranges better yet fruits and veggies not including tomatoes hehe. This is purposely done to help market the Lotus. Comparing these cars is ludicrous. Nothing between these cars matches to compare. For instance 2 passenger vs. 4, front engine rwd vs. mid engine rwd, car weight, hp, prices, luxury sport vs. racer, etc... The little Lotus is a little more then a T-Rex or go cart let alone a car. IMO you want to compare something remotely close to this with a Ford power train you have to look back in time and try a Cobra, Tiger, Griffith, etc... More recent years perhaps a SHO-gun which was a tuner car though or an RS200 ahhh. :) Its so easy to bash this test, for example if you want to argue price you can either have two Mustang GT's or invest another $30-40k and make a super car out of the Mustang. Pantera. That was one fine car. I would so love to see that car be resurrected. Another very nice car for its time was the Bricklin. Nick
