If I'm going to buy a Torino, give me this...







The only new age "classic" car I like is the new Challenger

I think it looks kinda nice.

Now mind you it's likely going to be horribly unbalanced and useless in the hills, but it's no bad looking.

If ford was serious about making this a decent vehicle they would produce another generation of the Barra i6 with twin turbos and give this the new Mustangs independent suspension. If they try to do some archaic live rear axl bullshit again it's going to be a pile of crap.

Of course that's what they're gonna do. They're not selling a car. They're selling lost youth to old farts.

I can't believe you're actually considering buying this.
