I bought a 1986 GT with cash from commissions selling payphones way back when. Still miss that car.

I bought my friend’s ‘88 GT when it was little more than a year old, when he got himself based in Germany. Damn, that was a FINE vehicle...except that it couldn’t handle for $hit in the snow without 300 pounds of sandbags in the back, and only passably well with it.

I recently drove the Mustang with the Ecoboost 4-cylinder engine (310 HP) for about 2 weeks. Not as fast as today’s GT, not even close, but faster than ours and simply the best-handling car I’ve ever driven. No live rear axle helps a BUNCH. I REALLY tried to fishtail it, and never succeeded despite wearing away at least 5,000 miles of rubber in the attempt. :>)
