GTP Cool Wall: 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1

[Dagger311]

Honestly, I think it looks better with the extra stuff. Shrinks the car visually. Makes it look like more of a sports car and less of a land barge.

I'm with this guy. Otherwise, it's just a slightly faster fastback with some styling cues.

What really sucks is when people dress their base ones up like a Mach 1.

 

[Leggy1]

Point is that many 1970 Mach 1's are adorned with splitters, louvers, wings, and stripes.

Which is uncool to many people. Even without them it's still an aggressive looking car.

I don't see how it's uncool. It enhances it for me because most typical cars don't have that type of stuff.

More like #Fakinit. At least I've never met someone who claimed their clone was a real one.

Everyone has a different taste in styling.

I've never even seen a clone Mustang.

I've seen too many cloned bosses. Mach 1 clones are rarer, because most people can actually afford one at some point.

It's not. It's a freaking grandpa's car:

Remember when I said that bragging isn't cool. Spoilers are mostly used in cars mostly used by the people that like to brag about their car.

The front end still looks more pissed off than most cars of the era though, at least from head on. That model is a 6 cylinder fastback which is pretty rare in itself.

I've never met a Mach 1 owner who sat there bragging about how "bomb ass" their car was. The crowd that owns these cars are not the young, ignorant kids like me.

And believe me, I've been around.

Damn that's even worse. It's like it's trying to make me sleep.

There was very few even built because no one ordered them, so don't lose any sleep over it . Most were coupes that had the 6 cylinders.

Didn't say that applies to this car. I was talking about spoilers in general.

That's true I suppose.

@Slash ever notice how any Cool Wall thread involving a Mustang becomes you replying to every single post?

There are 75 posts in this thread, including the OP. You made 20 of them and there are only a handful of posts that don't have you involved.

The Mustang is not exactly a niche car, it's exactly the opposite. The discussion doesn't need a tour guide.

 

[Slash]

It's a car I'm passionate about. I'm naturally going to reply more

 

[Turtle]

Man, I can't wait until another Mustang is polled in a few weeks so I can vote uncool on that too.

 

[AlvaroF]

It's a cool car no doubt, but the talk going on here makes me want to vote uncool

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I went with a high cool, because it's a classic Mustang. Most of the Mustang fanboys that are indeed annoying are usually associated with the modern Mustangs. Even then though, I haven't encountered that many Mustang fanboys to begin with and every Mustang owner I've met so far hasn't been annoying and rather welcoming. Though, I guess it has to do with what kind of car shows you go to.

I was away and surfing GTP on my phone and nearly posted this:

I thought I said no repolling? Locked.

Says it all really.

If not, JAFM SU.

 

[LivingWithGames]

No Sub-zero for me. I like it, but doesn't sound Sub-Zero to me. It's not my favourite.

But liek @Cano said, if it's a Boss 302, I probably would vote it Sub-zero. The difference in visuals, i don't think there is many but when comes to the engine, I can guess it's Cano's favorite.

 

[GranTurismo916]

JAFM SU.

Umm, what?

 

[Jet Badger]

Umm, what?

Just Another "fancy adjective" Mustang.

Is it just me, or do you base 75% of your opinions on here off of @Cano's?

The Boss 302 was far more than an engine. Look it up.

 

[Kent]

If we applied the logic used on so many cars in the past this would be SU.
I mean, how many paragraphs did it take Slash to explain why this car is cool?

Sorry but to anyone who isn't a Ford fanatic this would probably be nothing more than an old mustang.
Meh.

After seeing the pic again I almost wish I could go Uncool.
The cheesy rear window shade/visor thing, the big spoiler, and the ridiculous front under-spoiler all scream for attention in a tacky way. 👎

 

[LivingWithGames]

It's jsut you. He vote Uncool. I voted Cool.

You think I'll base everything about him?

@Cano I will. Give me a second.

You can get one that doesn't have a spoiler. Simple as that.

I'd go without the spoiler but yeah, I can see where you're going with this.

The engine in the Boss 302 is a one of a kind engine. Very, very race oriented street engine. The whole car was something else entirely.

Just Another "fancy adjective" Mustang.

Which it isn't. This is the step up over the vanilla fastback. A very big one at that, depending on what you ordered for the engine.

I mean, how many paragraphs did it take Slash to explain why this car is cool?

Because there a ton of reasons why it's cool.

That's part of why it's cool. It's an attention grabber.
