Personally, I liked the Cougars that were wannabe Mustangs but not the ones that were wannabe T-Birds.

For a race car yeah,. they pack a few pounds. But for a fun cruiser,.. man you cant beat em. Especially with 460. Very fun car and lots of room. I used to cruise around with 4 - 5 of us in the car all the time.
