This is a Ford. And all I have to say is... there's not one stock piece of anything by any manufacturer in America that goes 0-100 and back to 0 in 13 seconds. This car was made in '65, and until you've drifted through a turn successfully in one of these breaking a buck-20, you really know nothing about performance enough to criticise old american musclecars. There's not an import on this planet that can compete with these and still remain street legal. There ain't a GM product out there either, and this baby was built in 1965. Nothing street legal or european ever competed with this car successfully. Get your facts straight.

The S2000 is a %$Y#ing hair dryer in comparison. I guess that makes an Accord a sewing machine, and a GM product... a weed whacker. The only Chevy that ever beat this was the Cheetah... a prototype car that never made the production numbers to meet it in a sanctioned race event... and it ain't street legal, either. I too hate everything Ford built after 1980, but I won't stand for someone bashing them. They put the United States on the map in world-wide racing events when no other manufacturer could, and that caused every other manufacturer out there to make a better product.
