New Zealand has far too many corners to consider an American car.

Is this the concept for the next generation of Mustangs? Looks like they've taken a lot from Unique Performance's treatment of the GT500E.

A quick Squizz at Wikipedia reveals this model also.

Finally, Ford are making modern Mustangs that hark back to the classics of the late '60s and early '70s.

I'm with Slash on this one. Only thing that would keep me on the bike and not in that car is how much gas it would suck down while stuck in traffic

Funny all the people here that can't appretiate an American muscle car. Y'all do know that your Holdens are running Chevy engines right? And Cheverolet is an American company more known for it trucks and classic muscle cars.

It's still a cage no matter what it looks like or what sort of big arsed engine it has

You want me to give up bikes for a crusty old Ford??? WTF? That's nearly as bad as giving up bikes for a Holden! Bring on the Enzo!

**avgas** · 10th January 2007, 09:30

But they say the Ford is the fastest car around and you won't be beat.....

Obviously never been to Europe where 500Hp is sneezed at! A Koniisgsgegsgesckxh CCX would put that little American car in its place with its 900 odd Hp

Who cares? Chevrolet is a French name. Give it back.

I buy a car to fill a requirement. I buy a bike to fulfill a craving.

R7 is limited to a 100HP in standard form (hard to find - most have R1 engines in them now), and race kits MAY be available.

I'd choose a Suzuki A100 over that "thing". I know who'd be laughing at on the commute every morning.

Chevrolet and Holden are part of decidedly unprofitable international conglomerate called General Motors that has no qualms in moving various components around from different parts of its empire to include in others. Like V8 engines made by Chevrolet, all-wheel-drive systems made by Subaru, heated seat systems made by Saab, and twin-spark engines made by Alfa Romeo.

Even in the US of A, Dodge, Chevrolet and also Cadillac share many of the same vehicles and major components (like engines and floorpans) but with different badges.
