OK now. The GTO is not a pony car, it does not fit the catagory. The GTO, Torino, Charger, Cyclones, Road Runners, GTX,... etc....are a different class of cars. They are moreoften refered to as musclecars. Pony cars are smaller cars usually 4 seaters, with engine options that ranged from mild to wild. They are called pony cars because of the mustang, and when Ford launched the Mustang there was nothing out there like it. But yes the GTO was an upgraded Tempest. The Tempest and GTO allways shared the same body.

I think it's the same as when someone gets month old carton of milk out of the fridge, smells it and recoils in horror, then tells me to smell it to see if it's bad. I know I shouldn't smell it, but I just can't help myself. I know I shouldn't feed the trolls, that it only encourages more trolls, but I just can't help myself. I think I need help.
LMAO!!! So true..

1) I agree with everyone here. Comming on to this site trying to have decent, civilized debate, with a name like FORDISTRASH.....You are so trippin if you think were going to take you seriously. Your entitled to your opinion,, but what comes down to it, you just badmouthing us becasue we like fords. And thats more disrespect than a debate. 2) I agree with You on one thing...There is no replacement for displacement. But remember one thing too....It also comes down to money. You can have a V8 Camaro and little cash and 4 cylinders will kick your a$$ all day. Why? Becasue they spent less on the car and put more in. Also if your "rich" and you buy a V8, you can do un godly things to it.....So If your "rich" (or even just well off), and you buy a Contour you can do pertty much what ever you want becasuse money talks ( well there ar limitations like how much punishment the block and other scientific things)So any way you place it...it comes to money. Which a lot of people today don't ahve a lot of. So as you can see...We here make due with what we got and are proud of our cars. Ours may not be the fastest out there but there definitly some of the rarest! So the next time you see a Contour on the street think twice before you decided to race it...Cause you never know....it just might be me!

actually there was something like the mustang when it was released...the barracuda. it actually beat the mustang to market but they didnt fare well in the A body models especially the 64-66 ones. its popularity all stemmed from the E body model,70-74. just a little more useless info.

There is more knowledge of cars on this ONE forum than all of your mullethead, f-body forums. Not everyone wants a camaro, TA. We all bought these cars for originality and style. Although there are quite a few on here that are pushing the same if not more horsepower than you beloved camaro or TA. Once again:  -tropictour

Holy freaking 2 and a half year old post...

Certainly it wasn't by searching. Nobody does that...
