If I were to buy new I would get a 2011 GT. Comferable, quiet, fast, handle great, stop great and get great mileage. Excellent cars IMHO.
No, I'm not that thin skinned. I may have misread something in anger, because I can't find it! . But let's just be over it, it's water under the bridge AFAIC.
Most of us wont give any of the old 4 door 70's era muscle cars a second look, I am an american car guy, and I don't. The cool factor will always be what wins the m8 in my book, only time will tell.
In 10 years, neither of these cars will be worth crap, however just like the muscle cars of yesteryear, the Mark is a better platform for a toy. In 5 years almost everything is going to be 4 door or fwd. The mark will always be a 2 door, V8, rwd platform that can be modded.

I would have to agree. I have never understood the growing popularity of sedans with the youth of today. When I was growing up if you had a sedan you were considered a geek, all the cool kids had coupes.
The MkVIII still looks modern and slick, the LS looked dated the moment it was designed, it reminds me of the late '80s BMW's.
The LSs remind me of my moms old Mitsubishi Diamonte. It has some hint of class, but driving it just left alot to be desired
GM killed the only brand they had that I liked! /cry
Too bad? I wasn't looking forward to ever driving another.. The 3.0dohc is such a junk motor with no balls
I was dating a girl with a G6 GT hardtop vert, it's was a pretty cool little car, but I wouldn't pick it over a Mark
Id rather have a Voxell (sp?) VXR. I think if the GTOs came over here looking like that then they would have saved Pontiac instead of killing it.

Those Chargers sound... ok. If not a little obnoxious.
Maybe I'm getting way too old, but I live the mellow sound of a V12 over that of a V8.

I've heard some less-than-mellow v-12's.
Indeed. These are pretty loud: (Perkins CV12 - used in the Challenger II main battle tank)
