			...but the 2010 update might make me change my mind. http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/17/l...ally-unveiled/  I never really loved the retro look of the latest car, but somehow the slight changes they made (especially on the rear-end) has really made it look like a modern evolution of the classic car rather than a retro-modern car. Plus they *finally* put a nice interior in there! Chances are, I'd drop the money on a new STi instead of a Mustang GT, but I'll be damned if I don't like this GT.

			Dude, there actually was a model in there that looked good....it was the convertible 5.0 with the extra ground effects panels and whatnot.

			Yeah, Ice even wrote a song about his 5.0 with the rag top down, so that his hair could blow.

			If you had posted the SVO, I would have agreed.   ...it was pretty damn pimp for 1984.

			I think you need to be female and have '80's hair to be driving a 5.0 with the top down. Wait....

			I still think everything since the redesign in the 2000's it looks like a plastic Hot Wheels car.  Not nearly as bad now but still..
