    I get your point, but the ''Mustang'' has to be a V8. It was the point of the car.
    My brother looked to import the Camaro, and to get the conversion etc, 140K AUD. That is just plain outrageous when the car is 35 grand
    The FJ Cruiser from Toyota was 24K in the USA, and 49K here. If it was 24 grand it would kill off the Land Cruiser and Hilux, which is a big market here.
    We are getting shafted, and while we all like to point a finger at the Government, I am not so sure they are completely at fault here.

    I know, but I remember ''Bullet'' and ''Gone in 60 secs'' the original even!
    That Red Mustang at the top of this page, just would not sound right in a 4 or even a 6 to me.
    When you think of a Camaro, you probably thin of the 68 or 69 SS right? Big V8 sound, fat rear tyres......

    +1 !
    There was a picture of a new Charger taken in Victoria last year, car had full rego and was apparently owned by GMH (think the photo was in Chrysler Action magazine).
    A new Didge Viper sitting in local Chrysler showrooms would be a crowd stopper.
    Be interesting to see how the product line develops in the next few years.

    I actually really like the styling on the new Mustang and the pricing seems really good.
    Less of a fan of the Camaro`s styling but the Corvette on the other hand.

    True, but maybe it's a good idea in the name of progress. We don't know how quick it will be yet. But I'd imagine with the turbo, it'll hardly be glacial.
