Damn! FL car, $600. every panel on it has surface rust in places I've never seen rust on MN12s. Even he roof trim!

^Squirrels love it long time. I scared a rat away from the yard and into the front, then I realized I should move the car. I walked outside and saw this, walked back inside

I'll always find the Fiero cool only because a friend of my friend's dad had a 350 swapped one and it was just utterly ridiculous! Said Friends Dad bought a 04 z06 Vette brand new around the same time, and while it was clearly fast when he took all of us pne by one around town for a blast in it, that run in the V8 Fiero is still an unmatched experience. It probably had 100-150 less horsepower than the Vette but it absolutely felt faster.... or at least sketchier which is fun to an extent.

V6 SN95 Mustangs? No. That one fits the stereotype to the tee, every exterior accessory in the book to enhance it yet its still lame compared to a stock GT... which isn't even that special in this era! I had my Cougar when those cars were still being accessorized like this and even my stock 94 4.6 with its extra weak early npi power and extra weight would annihilate these things....... without stickers or stripes, without colorful brake calipers, without diamond pleated seat covers, without a hot air intake, etc... (I like New Edge Mustangs FWIW, but V6 Mustang culture is a big part of why they aren't yet that sought after IMO)

W body Regals, fuck no. MN12s and FN10s to the masses can fall under grandma/grandpa cars but they have substance and potential at least. Those GM GM10/W bodies were just complete irredeemable shit until the gen II 3800 era which had a lot more to do with the refinement of that engine than the chassis merits. These immediately followed up the G-body Regals that were the basis for the Turbo T-Types, Grand Nationals and GNXs. I look at these the same exact way I look at 99-02 Mercury Cougars; "Fuck off and die" lol
 
The SN95s never look kept here, a fine grocery grabber perhaps

Mind you I genuinely think the SN95s with the right wheels and stance look BETTER than every Mustang from 2005- today. Is that nostalgia or my contrarianism attitude speaking? Maybe, but I do appreciate them for their inherent compact size/weight and simplicity which to me is more classic Mustang than a fastback roofline(most 64-1/2-73s manufactured were in fact notchback coupes, just saying)...

Getting the right wheels/stance takes money and effort though, and V6 Mustang owners rarely outlay either, its all cheap/easy accessorization. One of my all time favorite New Edge Mustangs from forums was this procharged 04 Mach 1 I right click saved as 10+ years ago, which actually had its stripes deleted and with the black spoiler kind of looks like your run of the mill V6 if you squint. But the stance and the CCW wheels just make it. No modern Mustang looks half as good to me as this...

I saw your wrecked Z06 picture earlier and thought, how crazy would a 5.5L Fiero be?!
