Something like a Z/28.

My local Ford dealer had a Boss that didn't last long for $5,000 over sticker.

The mechanical engineers and styling department over at Ford don't seem to be on the same page. The styling looks like someone called the 1970s and asked for some really good houch to smoke while they were dreaming up what to do. On the other hand, the engineers smoked their stuff after they did all the right things. The result? A fugly car that goes fast!

I'd take a regular boss, but not a laguna. I like some creature comforts and don't need a full on factory race car.

I guess that's why they say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder? Someone must like the way Mustangs look, as they sell, and so do Camaros.

Blech... At least it's in no danger of looking better than Camaro...

we had our camaro meet this past sunday and one decided to stop by. car sounds nice but overall the the front looks nice. it's that basketball size logo in the back that makes it look bad.

Now that is god awful ugly. Some of these paint schemes they have chosen are just flat out ugly. All black with chrome 5 spokes would be sweet.

41K MSRP with forged internals and track ready from the factory? Sounds like a good value to me, considering most MFGs don't have a similar offer that beefy in any form..... If raw performance is not your thing, your mileage may vary.

Some good color combos to be had, but some are a bit over the top....
