"What are you waiting for" with the '78? Next year's model.

I had to turn off the '69 Mach 1 commercial after 30 seconds, though. Ever since the Kia debacle of last year, car commercials with choruses of people singing in a showroom rub me a terrible way.

Why not just go all the way and say "Note, EPA mileage may have fallen out of the south end of a northbound bull"

Why? Because it was smaller and cheaper...it was a good low-priced ride for a young hoon, as opposed to the "MOAR POWER!" overpriced, gas-sucking poser it's become today.
I wish the current Mustang had smaller dimensions, a standard 4-banger and a base price that's about 8k lower. Of course, the fact that everything is FWD now complicates the continued existance of any size Mustang. I'm still hoping that the carpocalypse will result in a return to small sport coupes. Maybe I just really want an '86 LX 5.0 hatch.
Anyway, '79 "Swingtown" ad FTW.

Now all there is, is the Challenger/Camaro/Mustang and they are big and $$$$ except wimpy models.

But, alas, I always do something stupid that changes my plans. Like buy a practical "pre-owned" car instead, or try to graduate and find a job in the middle of the Carpocalypse.

A certain Scott knows all about this.

I can't believe this rare old creature is being beaten by a dime-a-dozen rolling cliche Lotus!
Sure, it looks like a cross between a Renault Dauphine and a Hudson Hornet, but make it righteous. Give it a clown face paint job.
A clown car with suicide doors. That's just perfectly wrong.

The Panhard on the other had would require a machine shop, a foundry, a molding facality, and lots of time with an English wheel to get all of its 50HP back on the road. Clown hell it is. It should tell you something when the title has the words PARTS CAR written on it!

What better way to introduce sadness into your life than having a bunch of broken down voitures lying around?
Putting all that aside, my choice would be Lotus all the way. At 6K, I wouldn't even feel bad that I can't store it in a garage.
