I have always loved the Ford Mustang. I thought it was the best car ever made in America. I still think so.
I also think Lee Iacocca is one of the very best business CEO’s this country ever produced. Modern business CEO’s could take a page from Lee’s book.

I fell in love with the Ford Mustang when I saw the movie “Bullitt” with Steve Mcqueen.

I can't imagine what these cars will bring when/if they go on the Barrett/Jackson auction.

I drove one once, around 1988. Having been a stick driver all my life, I found the clutch pedal to be like trying to drive a railroad tie into set concrete. Another friend at that time had a Dodge Daytona and the same thing........
I was driving a 1985 Hondal CRX and the clutch was no harder to depress than the break pedal........ The same is true with my now 1995 Honda Del Sol

Me too! My favorite is any Boss Cobra, except for the post-energy crisis ones.

My dad was the transportation manager at the Dallas Ford Plant. The first one off the Dallas line was turquoise with a white top - all the managers took a turn to take it home for a week. It was awesome and I, at 8 years old, had no clue. My older brothers did... We wound up with a red one - not the candy apple red, the ugly red. it was OURS!

Precisely. Big bucks!!!
I really do hope that Ford hangs in there, and doesn't find itself beholden to a fascist named 0bama.

Clutches in Mustangs are built for MEN!
LOL, just kidding. I have an HHR SS and it has the lightest clutch I’ve ever had — it’s disconcerting to jump into my 2007 Mustang GT and have to actually press hard on the clutch pedal. So I can imagine what you felt!
But like anything else, once you get used to it — it’s different, but not necessarily worse or better. I personally like the heavier clutches (and these days the Mustang clutch is a lot lighter than in the past).

I watched an episode of the British hit TV Top Gear where they drive and rate cars from around the world. They tested the Mustang and had only a few good things to say about it. In sum though, they said is was a pretty good car...for someone who looks at their sister and thinks...”hmmm...she’s hot!”

Apples to oranges. Hondas have soft clutches indeed. Always have. You want a stiff clutch? Drive my dad's 89 Chevy Silverado 4x4. Dang, that thing's a workout!

Patriots will buy Ford, Honda or Toyota before they buy GM or Chrysler.
