TomServo92 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 My link You might be surprised to hear what the comedian has to say about the car. On more than one occasion, he compares the new Mustang to high-end metal from Mercedes-Benz and BMW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVT_MAN Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) I'm sure I'll get razzed, but I've always liked Jay Leno better than Conan as a comedian. Some people assume otherwise, but Jay has some very humble roots. When I was in high school, I read his autobiography. He had some great Ford stories from when he was a kid. For instance, his dad bought a 64 Ford Galaxie 500 (a car close to my heart because my dad owns one), and his dad made the mistake of letting his son choose the option boxes. Jay chose the 406 motor (might have been 427, but I don't think so), lake pipes, and the XL package if I recall correctly. Anyway, when his dad went to the dealer to pick up the car after it arrived off the box car, he returned it back to the dealer immediately because "the mufflers were broken." Little did his dad realize that it was just loud because of the lake pipes that Jay checked to have optioned on the car! LOL. I loved that one. Anyway, great video and I loved seeing Jay drive that car around. Very fun. BTW: Nothing against Conan ... he's fine. His humor is just not my cup of tea.

Project-Fairmont Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 That is the best review of the 2011 GT that I have seen. From one enthusiast to another - very refreshing. I also liked how he ordered his car. Gotta love his SHOgun in background... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I liked the little dig about the hood prop... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
