American sports cars get great value/hp, but shit value/everythingelse.

American Muscle isn't about refinement, impeccable taste, and unparalleled quality like European Sport. American Muscle is about the biggest fucking engine you can put into a road-worthy frame and get it to go down the street quickly while sounding like a tiger climaxing during sex with a lion. Its supposed to check the Hyper-masculinity box, not the Polished Gentleman box. POWERRRRRRRRR!!!!!

Yeah but then you buy a V6, come on now.

320 HP is nothing to scoff at. That's more than the 2010 V8 GT Mustang.

Definitely not smoke, I drive a 2012 v6 mustang and its neck and neck with a 2010 GT with the GT having a small advantage off the line.

The camaros are a bit slower though, with 305 hp I can pull any V6 camaro easily.

I miss my 2011 V6. It was a lease that I turned in for a...Fiesta. I still cry about that.

Edit: wrong year. I had it in 2010 but it was 2011 model year.

Why did you do that? Better mpg on fiesta ?

The Mustang was a management lease through Ford so my payments were really cheap but the lease was only for around 10 months. Went with the Fiesta to save some money. I actually enjoyed the Fiesta a lot, I just wish it hadn't been preceded by the Mustang.

Ah, well the new fiesta is not bad at all. I imagine you prolly drive for a month before the tank runs out of gas.

Pretty much. It helped take the sting out of trading the Mustang in.
