Kevin and his 98 Mustang Project Build

When I bought my 1998 Mustang GT a few years ago, I just got it because I was tired of driving slow trucks.

A grand touring car is not necessarily a race car, though most manufacturers race them, it is made to eat the miles in great comfort without sacrificing power.

2010 Mustang GT vs 2010 Camaro SS



Some wars have been waging since the dawn of society with race vs. race, religion vs. religion, king vs. king.
