I am intrigued by the Ford mustang ever since seeing one at a classic car show last month. I think it was a late 60's model (none of that modern crap) in shining black, and, for an American car, was gorgeous (not that American cars are ugly, but from a UK perspective they are often highly impractical).
I was wondering what the status of this car is in the US- do people look at them and go 'oh, a 40 year old Ford,', or do they have a certain 'wow' factor like they do in the UK?
PS, A friend of a friend owns one, it's a Mustang Boss (...), but I can't remember the three numbers that follow- supposedly it is very rare- any ideas?
Thanks!

Yeah 429 sounds right! Any info (on stature as opposed to performance figures!) thanks!

I think all Mustangs are cool. My mom and dad got their first mustang, a orange 1964 1/2, right before I was born in 1965. We've pretty much had 'Stangs ever since. My favorite are the '69 fastbacks but I have never owned one, But I still want one. My favorite 'Stang I owned was a blown 1991 5.0 GT hatchback. It had 400 hp and was really quick. I have since sold it but we currently own a black 2003 GT convertable. Still a pretty fast car even though its stock. The Mustang Boss' where a boss 302, 351 or 429, all enginge sizes.

Mustangs are considered one of the ultimate muscle cars in America. I think most people who care about cars can appreciate the Mustang. It definitely has a "wow" factor, if it is in good condition and the owners have restored it to it's original condition.

For the most part the classic Mustang's are pretty poorly put together, well at least compared to the modern Mustangs. I love the latest bodystyle.

the only thing i know about classic 60s ford mustangs is:
YOU WILL BE IN LUCK WITH THE LADIES because its a known fact that girls get turned on while sitting in the front seat.
NO OTHER CAR HAS THIS POWER

If your talking about the New models i would pick the camaro just because it looks amazing, but classic cars i would choose the 65 mustang...that's just my opinion
