Why do people like mustangs?

[Hammer]

Hmmm,
How should I respond to this?
Maybe I should ask why people buy F-Bods?

Both cars have their pros and cons.

You said that people buy sports cars because they want performance....

If all you want is off-the shelf straight line performance with a warranty and you don't care what it looks like, drives like, handles like... or how long it will even last after the warranty goes out.... Go ahead and buy that FBod...

Sorry, but to be honest, build quality on F-Bodies is sort of an inside joke in the car industry.

Despite it's lack of off-the-shelf straight line power, the Mustang still dominates the after-market. It's just too easy to make fast...
(I should know... I have a reliable, easy to drive daily, comfortable, well-appointed car that eats Vettes for breakfast for just a little more than what many F-Bod owners paid for their SSs)

By a more than a 3 to 1 margin customers chose the stang.
While I can't speak for others, here's some reasons why I bought one:
After Market Availability
Dependability
Build Quality
Drivability on a daily basis
Visibility
Looks
Heritage

I have no animosity at all toward f-bods, in their own way, they are some powerful machines.... but for some of us, power alone does not complete the package.
