Many car owners still want to say that they own a Corvette. The reasons why are as many and varied as the amount of ingenuity and classic American engineering that the Corvette brought to the high performance automotive industry. When it was introduced in 1997 it offered a back to basics approach to the look and style of the car. Where the C4 attempted to bring it into a more modern look with a sleeker design the C5 was a more rounded and imposing monster like the Corvettes that came long before it. The fastback coupe had a trunk, the first one in almost forty years.

On March 9, 1964 the first Ford Mustang rolled off the assembly line. The brainchild of Lee Iacocca, the Mustang’s unforgettable profile and small block powerhouse grabbed the attention of car buyers and aficionados. The Ford Mustang was the first out of the gate in the “pony” car parade and continues to lead the way today. Over the years the Ford engineers would tweak and play with the original design, always building on the past. Like its fans, the Mustang grew up and changed over time but never changed its personality or its breeding.
