Looks amazingly good, especially in that blue.

Handsome little sedan, Mazda's on a role with their styling and one would assume it's going to drive well. Why wouldn't they bring it here?
This is the best comment of read on here in weeks.
Don't you think when he says it's "the most powerful naturally aspirated Ford engine ever" he's referring to production engines installed in cars that were then sold? No one argues that there weren't 427 SOHC Galaxie prototypes built, they're documented in the car mags of the day, and as Ford was preparing for…
The economic boom of the 20s was the result of development? That's a pretty generic term that could mean anything. It was the result of the policies of the Coolidge administration that got the damn government out of the way of the people. Similar policies were put in place during the era you failed to try to explain,…
So, just for example, the massive economic booms this country experienced in the 20s and again in 80s-90s were based on the US selling products to vanquished enemies? Germany and the countries of the former Austro-Hungerian Empire didn't have a pot to piss in in the 20s and by the 80s Germany and Japan were economic…
I don't need to "help the case against gun control", it's in our Constitution and the 2nd Amendment has been upheld by our courts time and again. And as a police officer with 14 years experience, working in a state that has no restrictions against open carry and a 'shall issue' concealed carry permit law, I can tell…
NEWSFLASH: There's a reason that, in a few hundred years, the US became the most prosperous and powerful nation in the world. And it's thanks to the hard work of the individual, striving to be the best he or she can be, possible because of the liberties we enjoy that are enshrined in the Constitution.
The NRA has a saying "if you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns". The point being that criminals don't care if it's illegal to have a gun BECAUSE THEY ARE CRIMINALS!!!
Really? Criminals can't get illegal guns in countries that deprive law abiding citizens the right to self-defense?
The Chevelle's LS6 wasn't more powerful then the Vette's, but for some reason Chevy never put an LS6 (450hp in a '70 Chevelle or ElCamino) in a '70 Corvette. The highest horsepower engine one could get in their '70 Vette was the LS5 which was rated at 390hp but the same engine was only 360hp in the Chevelle. For '71…
Damn, Miami Vice (like many '80s TV shows) just didn't hold up well. But Johnson's character had great taste in cars and firearms with the Daytona and later Testarossa and his Bren Ten.
Nope, especially a '71 LS6 as that was the year GM cut compression ratios on all their high-performance engines. The '67-'69 L88s were wildly cammed, very high-compression racing engines only available in production cars for homologation purposes. GM did not want the public buying them because of their unsuitability…
If you were being sarcastic and I just didn't catch it, ignore this.
"ATF rules are much stricter once the airplane leaves the ground. So Fagen has aluminum replica Brownings installed in the wings, and the real .50 calibers stayed home in Minnesota under lock and key."
The TPI 350s were solid motors, it was the same engine in the Corvette had but with a far more restrictive single exhaust. The biggest problem is they were slushbox only.
Ummm... the rule was no engine larger than 330 c.i. in anything other than a full size car. After Delorean and crew snuck the Goat through in '64 as an option on the Tempest, GM changed the rule to 400 c.i. excepting full-sizers and the Corvette. This remained in place until 1970.
Ever read Muscle Car Review or Hemmings Muscle Machines? Both magazines regularly feature Corvettes and Mustangs. Ever watch the Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Racing Series? Corvettes and Mustangs run in it. Go to any muscle car event in the world and a Corvette or high performance Mustang would be welcome with open…
