I couldn't agree more about the Pontiac... GM and Chrysler are garbage as well...

I read a previous article about vehicle selection for the show. It simply came down to readily available production vehicles with plentiful availability. If Pontiac still had a Firebird in production it would have been the new Knight Rider car.

Personally I like the Mustang. I am not a big fan of Ford but for the Mustang I'll make an exception.

Hey Doug, does the current incarnation of the Mustang make up for the 70's era Pin-tang?

im not going to get involved in a car argument again but i will say that im a mustang guy after switching over from camaros. Even though i no longer own a stang my past 2 cobras are missed greatly, its just something about mustangs that makes me feel all tingly inside

I dont think any "car" person even a GM guy could think this thing looks bad....



I don't dig the rear wing too much, but other than that I think that car is beautiful.

Plus it can do the 1320 in 3.87 seconds.

I think they should reinvent Knight Rifer by making it something you wouldn't expect. Like maybe a tricked out Yugo...

I don't know, Doug, I think I like this one better.
