Flemming Ultimate Garage has a nice variety of collector cars.. they even have had bandits like this one in the past. Check out the website.

I actually saw this car parked in front of a house and would pass it on my way to and from work until I got the nerve to write on a piece of paper a note telling the owner to sell it to me and can you believe that he called me.

Problem with muscle cars is they only go straight. Most roads have a turn or two in them so I have never wanted one the way some of my friends did. Over the years they have gotten better. The newer Corvettes for instance can handle okay. That said, those old muscle cars are a lot of fun to work on and fast as shit off the line.

I wanted to like the new Camaro, but that interior is just horrible. It's like sitting in a rowboat with no seat. My personal favorite of the modern musclecars is the Challenger. It's the slowest and most expensive, but it's freaking gorgeous and feels the most like a true old musclecar with the big size and relatively soft suspension (in R/T form)

2011 Acura RL gets 24 mpg hwy, starts at $47,200, and looks like something an old fart would drive... The current V6 Stangs have 305hp and get close to 30 mpg hwy.

Starting at ONLY $35,605? Acura's TL may display superior handling in certain situations but you sure as hell pay for it. Mustang V6 starts close to 22k and you get better gas milage + acceleration. Bottom line: you're comparing a $36,000 AWD luxury/sport sedan that utilizes complex technology to a much less expensive, simple, RWD sport coupe.

I have to agree with the AOL troll on this one. American pony cars are for straight line performance only, whereas European and Japanese cars provide a blend of speed and handling. Just look at the Mustang, it still uses a live rear axle. That was considered an old fashioned setup 30 years ago!


Also, the new Challenger and Camaro both put T rated tires on their base models, so enthusiasts can applaud the 300 or so horsepower in their $22k car, but what good is it when the manufacturer slaps on some tires that are rated only for 118 MPH? A four cylinder Corolla can do that speed.

Mustang V6's curb weight is under 3,500 lbs. Maybe you were looking at the GT?

Explain this then...

Mustang GT vs BMW M3: Difference in their lap times was less than a tenth of a second and the M3 costs over 25k more.

Also, it would be interesting to see how the two compare at 100+mph speeds on a straight track, guarantee you the Mustang is geared strictly for 0-60 times.

If the Mustang was strictly for "straight line performance" it would not have been able to achieve a nearly identical lap time to the M3.

Why is it that a car that costs over 25k more and utilizes modern technology couldn't stomp the Stang with it's "dinosaur live-rear-axle"?

Do you really think these results could be reproduced in every situation? Clearly, the Mustang had a torque advantage that pulled it through, and this track had quite a few opportunities for the straight line performer to shine.

Also, that $25k extra cost of the BMW isn't solely because of performance upgrades...build quality, interior features, etc. factor in.

These cars are in very different categories, and aimed at two very different buyers. The Mustang is about performance on a budget, the BMW M3 is about a luxury sedan/coupe that has been upgraded with performance modifications.

Because of their almost identical test results, it would most likely be a driver's race in repeated evaluations. So you're implying that the Mustang had an unfair advantage due to an abundance of straights on the track? There were plenty of curves as well for the M3 to shine.

I guess my main point was the Mustang's live-rear-axle vs the modern IRS on the M3. If the live axle is such a hindrance to the Stang's handling performance, then why was it able to keep up on the track?

If Mustangs are pieces of crap then why do they continue to sell so well? Why is it able to match your Acura in performance and fuel economy? Seems to me that you're jumping on the "American cars suck" bandwagon. Keep in mind that we've been comparing the V6 Stang to your Acura. The V8 would blow it's doors off and still cost less ($29,145). The Acura is a nice car but to say that it is "better"...? That really is relative. It depends on what you want out of the car.

SEEMS FAIR TO ME EVEN THOUGH I AM LUGGING AROUND LEATHER SEATS,
TWO EXTRA DOORS, MORE WINDOW GLASS, AND A BIGGER CAR IN GENERAL.

THE V8 WOULD DO EVEN POORER ON THE SLALOM COURSE DUE TO IT'S
POORLY BALLANCED FRONT END HEAVY-LARGER MOTOR.
ALTHOUGH ACURA MAKES THE AWESOMELY SCULPTED NSX FOR THE ULTIMATE IN
A LUXURY SPORTS CAR EXPERIENCE, AND NISSAN MAKES A GT-R THAT GOES 0-60
IN A REPORTED 2.7 SECONDS. THE 2012 Nissan GT-R IS POWERED BY A
