Mustang Models
This is what I've been thinking about lately. During the '79-93 era, there were all kinds of Mustangs to chose from. You had choice of the LX hatchback or notchback, diff engine sizes, diff rear end gearing. You had the choice to get a GT, with those options as well. There were also the Cobras. They had the Saleens as well. Plus there were special models. Moreover, they were all pretty well distinguishable, ie, looked diff and had there own characterstics.
Nowadays, yeah, we got the V6s and the GTs, the Cobras and Saleens, but their really isn't as much versatility (diffs in them in terms of looks). Maybe it's just me, but that is something I've been noticing. And yeah, there are a good amount of special model Mustangs, Bullit, Mach 1..., but they all look pretty much the same to me.... (don't get me wrong, the Mach 1 is beautiful).
Anybody else ever feel like this???
