Post Just wanted to let u know....

Today while surfing the net I came across an article on CarPoint’s top 10 sports cars. The mustang was #1. The Corvette and Camaro were #4 and $5 respectively.

I saw that too... I was surprised it got any praise at all, usually it's all about the imports with columnists.

Yeah I saw that too.

So anyone can talk all the crap they want to about how the Camaro is cheaper and faster than the Mustangs or whatever (like a recent post on MW) but they won't persuade anyone to buy more Camaros. Their desperate last minute attempts all come to nothing, like trash blown away by the wind.

I can't believe the morons out there in the world. Recently, I have been told by more than one person that Mustangs are not sports cars; even the new ones...
Makes me feel even better to defeat so many sports cars with a car that's not one itself...

I saw a different study/survey, done by AOL(I think). Mustang was #1 on that one too. I believe its an American icon, for sure. "YOU HAVE A MUSTANG?!" heeh..

Talking

Its obvious you don't have a mustang, you don't seem that smart. Though your envy does not go unnoticed Maybe you can get one... when you grow up
