Saw this today



In Lafeyette, IN. Has it come to Oahu yet? I had my camera, but the batteries were dead from filming my son's first haircut.

Rich, gorgeous.

I'd really have to get an upcloseandpersonal, but outwardly it's beautiful.

I used to like the 88-93(?) body style a lot until everyone owned one....and they offered it as a 6cyl.

I'd def. own one, depending on how much attention they paid to the susp & brakes vice the engine and exterior.

well if you like an uncontrolable beast, go out and buy a new Mustang. Solid rear axle and no IRS! What were they thinking it's not 1972 anymore It's OK to put some Tech in to a musle car's susp

You're absolutely right. One thing, though. You know that 5th gear show? They HATE American cars and will only grudgingly give one high marks if it sincerely deserves it. They rated the C6 which, unless I'm not remembering exactly, has a single rear axle and LEAF SPRINGS. They had their dude, Sprig(?), take it around the track and while they beat up on Chevy for putting such cheap, archaic stuff in it and on it (they hate the fiberglass body), they still gave the suspension very high marks for being tuned so well.

FWIW.
