I mean, yeah, more or less, but there were still cops out.

And pedestrians. 

Not that we cared, at the time.

The 60s engines generally had low end torque even if not much high end hp.  That helps when driving a clutch.  I don't know if you had a 6 or an 8.

I'm sure I've said it before, but I think Aston Martin is making the most beautiful cars in the world right now.

I'm never going to own one so I don't give a rip about reliability or performance.  But they sure are pretty to look at.

2026 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster Is a Hot Car Made Even Hotter

$200,000
Give me the Shelby Gt 500 and the leftover $110,000. Faster and better looking.

I'm not sure I agree that the Mustang is better looking but it is quite striking. And it's pretty obvious where recent Mustang designers have been taking their cues...
