Mustang outsold the 911 in Germany last month, 780 Mustangs to 752 911's. Seriously. http://money.cnn.com/2016/04/08/autos/ford...-sales-germany/
Well, at half the price that probably does make sense, but still, Mustang? |

We have a few guys here on the board who you can hand the keys to anything to them, and they'll be fast. Larry Sharp, Steve Nieslony, Britain Smith... Ask them to drive a mustang and they'll be fast too. But then, ask them how it felt to drive it. A sports car puts the driver in touch with the road. Mustangs are iconic and I get why Germans would like that, but they aren't sports cars.

Mustangs are iconic and I get why Germans would like that, but they aren't sports cars. Is the techno-bloated 911 a sports car then? I would Much rather buy a Toybaru. And if really spending more money for real, and though I am a Ford guy, it might well be a Vette, which surprisingly hasn't come up. I have 914s cause IMHO they are sports cars. But I drive slow. |

The last 911 I would own was made in 1989 so... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
