In my opinion, the Fox body is the closest you can get to a modern interpretation of a Muscle Car. I love it for that, and I hate it for that. The Fox is a brute, plain and simple. Little refinement, but it's got a ton of character. Such fun to drive, but it can be a pain to live with day in and day out.

I'm very harsh on the way I rated the two cars. I could have easily given a couple extra points here and there, but I wanted it to be a brutal review without a bunch of candy shoved up people's rears.

I have a hunch that the 2002 would take on a much different personality with some simple suspension mods, a better shifter, and some exhaust with a couple cheap engine bolt ons. That's down the road though.
