I saw the new one in Ruby Red today, soooo pretty.

Porsche has changed the name of the Mission E concept to,... ugh this is bad, the Taycan(Tie-con). Just o back to the Mission E please.

It's a great looking car, but when it comes to model names I think the US reigns supreme.

Just off the top of my head:

• Javelin
• Mustang
• Bronco
• Zephyr
• Demon
• Hellcat
• Roadrunner
• Charger
• Challenger
• Roadmaster
• Corvette
• Stingray
• Magnum
• Viper
• Cobra
• Venom
• Talon
• Marauder
• Hornet
• Prowler
• Cutlass
• Firebird
• Lightning
• Typhoon

So, Trabis are kinda still dangerously cheap? I get that they're raising in price but €2K for a runner seems...relevant to my interests. My terrible, bad interests.

You also forgot the Ford Boss (6.2L V8) and the Road Runner (Coyote is also cool but RR is cooler)

Did anyone say Superbird? If not, Superbird. Superbird is best.

Roadmaster? Really?

 

[GRtak]

Bow to your Master!


I agree, the name is not great, but I still miss my Master.

But it is way better than Crown Victoria... Why, just why?

Grand Marquis, Town Car

Roadmaster? Really?

I think it fits for the car and a certain time.

 

[GRtak]

I don't care, the name is still terrible.

 

[GRtak]

Grand Marquis, Town Car

More terrible names.

YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH!

My dad bought a Mustang, and I'm insured to use it. It's absolutely ace. There's a lot to be said for a big V8 when you haven't experienced one before. I want one.

Love that color combo.

Hell yeah. Not so much in the 80s and 90s, but it was perfect in the 30s-50s

One of us! One of us! I have had so many discussions/arguments with people over this. "But I can make more power with <insert non V8 turbo>" "But it's not the power it's the way it feels and sounds" "But I can still pass you!!" "I don't care...."

Love that color combo.

Opposite for me lol

That’s awesome! I for sure thought that the mustang would lose its popularity a year after everybody got one but, it seems to still be selling very well.
