Yeah those Mustang do scream.....but they last 2 years and fall apart like most other mini rockets.

Even my BMW could run with those smokers...once the speed hit 70 or so.

I drove my BMW to near 250k and never even needed a front end job...and I live in the pothole capital of the world.......almost 5 years with no breakdowns.

Forgot to add my 95 Range Rover to that list...we kept it for about a year and a half...it was without exception the most disfunctional car I ever owned....when something broke, half the car had to be replaced....once we broke down outside of Chicago....they flatbedded the thing to Detroit to fix it since it was under warranty....you see, we were heading East and they figured no sense driving West 20 miles to Chicago to fix it.....It comes from the top down dude, IDIOTS-R-us......

I will say it had the most beautiful interior of any car I ever owned and would buy another for a 2nd or 3rd vehicle....I'd look for one 4 years old with over 60k miles on it....figure by that time most of the parts will have been replaced....

It was the worst buy for the dollar of any car I've ever owned.....right up there with the Audi.
