Say Goodbye to the One Trick "Pony"!
Forty years ago the Pony car was introduced to America. It was you basic Mustang or Camaro. They had huge engines and put up great numbers in the quarter mile as well as their 0-60 times. The downside to these one trick Pony's was just that: they only accelerated quickly. The new Pony cars are more than just big wild beasts, they're nimble as well. The affordable new base Mustang can get to 60 in about 5 and a half seconds and pull .95g on a skid pad, that grip is almost as good as the rally-bred Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. This performance is all for around 23 large, thats cheaper than my Subaru; maybe I should have reconsidered...buyer's remorse, well...possibly a little.
