The Trans-Am series of the late 1960s and early 1970s could be considered the golden era of American motorsports. Not only did it showcase the most desirable American cars of the time, but it featured some of the world’s greatest racing drivers engaging in this country’s own brand of fender-banging...

Potentially ruinous. All that work on an impressive new 5.0-liter V8 engine, chassis tweaks and other piecemeal refinements for the 2011 Ford Mustang GT are almost all for naught because of a single glaring issue. What could erase all the gains the Mustang has made for 2011? The answer is nestled between...

The 2011 Ford Shelby GT500 is so good we don’t even want to associate the word “Mustang” with it anymore. Not that there’s anything wrong with the Mustang – particularly the revised 2011 model. But as a sports car, the word “Mustang” conjures images of something...

The reborn 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS is the 2010 Ford Mustang GT’s most obvious competitor (obviously). While the Camaro is certainly a head turner, it’s just not that great of an all around performance car. However, despite the 2010 Mustang GT coming out on top in many comparisons against...
