So, why do you think that a random burst of bass while I'm sitting in my house watching television is something that I want to hear? I'm not bothering you. I'm not projecting my television programming onto the road so that you have to see a tiny snippet of it as you go past. Why would you force that on me?

Yeah, the Top Gear guys really like the Mondeo/Contour on which the Cougar was based. But, well, two cars on this list were based on that...

I kind of want the R/T (V6) version. Mostly because I just love that they make one.

1975 Charger, sorry. My brain still doesn't want to admit that abomination existed.

Neutral: Why choose? I have a Challenger (2012 R/T) and a Mustang (1968 GT...not running...)

The Comet/Maverick wasn't based on the Mustang (outside of styling), they were, however, both based on the Falcon, but were different evolutions of that platform by 1970. In a further twist, the second gen Mustang was originally going to be based on the Maverick, but Ford eventually decided on using the Pinto instead.

My second car! The first was a Maverick, actually, with a V8. The Mustang was generally nicer (Bucket seats! Fourth gear!), but it was slower, uglier and...browner (mine was brown).

I'll do mine...

My Challenger has 1—>4 shifting. This first came about on the original Viper, I believe, and what it means is that when the car is slowly accelerating from a start with the gas pedal down less than 1/3 the way, at a certain RPM threshold, the little LED in the center of the instrument gauge will say "Shift 1—>4". If

Oh, on mine, they didn't even bother cleaning the car after it was driven from Atlanta before they put the sticker on, so there is road funk that you can see under the clear parts of the sticker.

That's kind of the thing. Badge-engineering doesn't really work anymore. 40 years ago, if you wanted a base coupe, you bought a Thunderbird. If you wanted a nicer one, you bought a Cougar. If you had the money and wanted a really nice one, you bought a Mark series. These were all basically the same cars, but you got

So, a tarted up Honda gets a special edition for a feature that I was forced to take on my lowly Dodge because it came with the heated seats and 0-60 timer? Admittedly, I've grown pretty fond of it over the last year and a half, but...Really?!?

I saw this on Top Gear as well and thought it was some stupid fad on expensive cars. And now I know...

I've seen a Ford Flex with wood paneling. I thought it was a factory option and I was very pleased.

Why would they even bring 11 rims? A couple, sure, but 11? Did they also have a three engines and five suspensions in that truck?

Wow...Okay, I can understand the hate for the Mustang II, but it wasn't an ugly car at all. The Turnpike Cruiser is the most over-the-top car of an era of over-the-top cars. But the 61 Valiant? The 61 Dart? The Cougar? The Starsky and Hutch Torino? Dude...

I would have been really angry about this 12 years ago, but I had honestly thought LucasArts was already dead. The last really good Star Wars game was, what, Knights of the Old Republic 2, and that was done by Obsidian. The last really good adventure game was Psychonauts, which was Double Fine. What have they been

In the 80s, RWD was considered on it's way out, even in sports cars.

Who passes 5 cars on a blind curve against the lines, then drives 20mph under the speed limit when he gets to the front? Honda drivers...
