'64/'65 Mustangs had that hexagon mesh grille material from the factory. Probably just more noticeable since the core support is painted white (originally black) and there's no pony and corral or any other trim cluttering it up....

I dig it and that Mustang is sick.  [evil]






Totally the same.

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Ferrari liked it so much they put it on the F40

I've always liked the F40 for some reason.  Too bad I didn't have my camera the other day, waiting at a red light in the bus, I saw a Ferrari 348 drive by.

The F40 got a failing grade as one of Ferrari's biggest mistakes.  At least on Top Gear......  Even I have to admit that the expanded metal on the grill of the Mustang and the tail of the Ferrari look like poo.

Kinda like Ducati using cheap plastic fluid reservoirs.......

there is a Ferrari mechanic about 15 miles away that I pass by regularly, always lots of good eye candy there

I love the F40, having one blow past you full throttle is quite an experience

I haven't gotten to hear that.  I remember seeing one in a showroom when I was passing through Italy in 1991.  Closest I've ever gotten.

You're thinking of the F50. 

The F40 was universally praised.

BEST CAR EVER FERRARI F40
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Skybarney

You are correct!  It was the F-50.  Not being in the "buying a Ferrari anytime this next couple of years club" I forget little details lol.  If the new gig goes well maybe that will change.  For now I try not to look to hard at cars that cost way more than I can afford.  Gives me the same feeling as looking at a hot 24 year old.  Kinda like blue car balls......   ;D
