The Mustang is just one of those cars that looks menacing in your rear view mirror... the Z not so much... especially when Red__Zed is driving.

Jon told me that when a mustang is following you, it just looks like two hooligans are sitting on your hatch...

The Mustang is about as menacing as a kitten. When I see them in the rear view, they just look like another coupe to me. When I see a Z back there, they look exotic. I'm thinking, "Hey it's a Por--- nope, just another cheap sucker like me."

I love the look of the white with blue strips GT350 and I'm not a Mustang fan.

But the price plus the interior is a big turn off.
