I hear you on that.. I have owned a few F-bodies.. ALTHO, back in the early 90's when I had my IROC... I did have a mullet (hangs head in shame)

But when I had my 01 SS and now with my GT/CS.. I am clean shaven bald, I see more and more guys going shaven.. wonder if that is gonna be the "mullet" of the 21st century

No it isnt, its all 80s and early 90s f-bodys. They were mullet cars not just the camaros.

Shady, I'm dissapointed in you. The typical F-body owner already has a (F)body available.

Pretty much true. The 2010 had it's hp bumped up and makes like 540bhp if i remember right now. Still runs shitty times, but a good MPH in the 1/4. Tires are shit and they handle better than the new camaros apparently. They did a comparison with the hennessey camaro. Of course the camaro was faster but they liked the gt500 better for some reason.

IMO it's overpriced, but i think the powerplant is great. I think it looks horrible as well. Looks like a v6 with stripes...nothing special imo. Yes i can tell the difference, but it's nothing special and overpriced

It's pretty ironic to have a F-Body owner dissing the looks of a Shelby.

He doesn't like the looks of the new Shelby and I don't like the looks of some F-Bodies, mainly Firebirds. To each his own.

The important thing is that they both have great American V8's.

**allbaugh_04** · 07-29-2009, 07:44 AM

Sorry, the cobras and saleens from a few years ago look good.

I don't have bad taste, the new shelby looks stupid and is a waste of money for what you are getting.

yeah--- fifty grand for a riced out mustang that runs mid 12's is a little steep.

Yeah, they sure don't look as good as Firebirds do. Firebirds have all of that neat, useless cladding all over them.

Where do the 4th gen Firebirds have excess cladding? We could get into a big debate about functional/non functioning scoops, rear fender fake vents, etc. I usually think of cladding like what is on the Grand Ams of various years, or the side cladding they used to put on Cherokees.
