I fucking love these style of cars the angles and the way they just look weighty, their interiors were always so stripped too but sturdy.

maybe its just me but I never liked convertibles. I always preferred T-Tops

also 80's popups

I love that you guys are starting to come around on Daytonas. I'm always trying to push turbo Ks on you but if I have to start you out on G so be it.

I certainly hope this happens. I honestly cant see myself purchasing any newer model cars until they fix their overworked designs. AND with the seemingly decreasing manual trans option its even less likely. pfft, apparently enjoyment isnt on manufacturers bucket lists.

I like Ford's design language, it has sorta of an futuristic 80's vibe.

with CAD, they got a lot to play around with.

But the language has been consistent, well if you forget about the late 90's and early 2000's.

If I had known about the SHO I probably would have bought one in the early 2000s to replace my turbo K that finally died.

>>15001821
nice.

I bought an SVT Contour, which was like an SHO.

But I broke it, twice. It was the most fun car I've had to date.

I'm still determined to find an SHO in immaculate condition to live out my 80's fantacies kek.

I prefer 70s/80s euro. I know they don't tend to do any kind of throwback designs, but I somewhat wish they would

>>15001786
is it weird I appreciate the 90's ford design language more now than back then?

I remember not liking the 90's foxbody mustang as a kid because "it just looks like a sedan"

nowadays I appreciate it a bit more.

seeing as how the 80s produced the ugliest cars ever made and how now is the ugliest since then Id say its happening

>>15002911
Honestly I'd say 90s/00s cars are significantly uglier than their 80s counterparts, but then again that's just me.

>You are now imagining this design with modern engineering underneath.

Hnnnng.

Sadly impossible due to pedestrian safety regulations.
