Hahaha, Probably not.

But then again beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are lots of cars and lots of people that love them just the same. Better said is that car enthusiasts love all cars classic and new and not just a select few. Am I right?

i havent seen the old mustang video... but
in TG mag, i know they tested a 2002 mustang Bullit (cobra intake manifold for '5 more bhp') and enjoyed the ride.

the ford gt that JC tested was just a preview... im sure he will be one of the first in the UK to have a production version, so im sure we will see a good test... then again, mabey not as JC didnt give his merc the full tv test.

i cirtailny hope to see Tiff testing the GT.
and... the MGSV test is somewhat similar to what the mustang cobra would be...

Richard Hammond drove a Charger R/T last night. Also Jeremy argued with him for some time that in fact the Challenger R/T was a better car.. ie kowalski's white car from "Vanishing Point", vs the baddies car from "Bullitt"...
