[QUOTE="mc01svt, post: 15291550, member: 32337"] the only logical is answer is the 85-93 foxbody 5.0s. These were the last mustangs that had good performance and were AFFORDABLE by anyone and everyone. A kid in highschool could buy one just the same as a working class man with a family. They werent rare, parts were dirt cheap and you could literally do a cam/heads swap in your garage on a sunday afternoon. runner up would be the 03/04 cobras. While i like the terminator the harsh reality is they were made for a measly 2yrs, poorly marketed and 99% of the world doesn't know a terminator from a v6. Literally everyone in the world recognizes the 5.0 badge whether you are a car enthusiast or not. the 13 GT500 and the 16 GT350r are the fastest but IMO mustangs have always represented performance available to the common man. Neither of these $60k+ monsters are accessible to working class families. Avg Joe that works a $40k per year blue collar job has no chance in hell of walking into a dealership and buying one. I would guess the average shelby buyer makes well over $100k and is over 50yrs old. Thats a top 7% income, not what i define as the original intended market of mustangs. Just my 2 cents [/QUOTE]
