There was a Ford Capri, it was the German Mustang. For some reason or other, they could not use the Mustang name there. So, even though it was basicly the same thing as the American Mustang, they called it Capri and kept the Ford name. I haven't been to Germany since 1988, so I don't know if they still do this.

And I won't be buying until the end of the summer. I'm almost positive I'm gonna get a fox-body, I just wanted to see if anyone had any better alternatives.
Well I think anything "pre73" is a muscle car. Thats just my opinion. If you like the old muscle which I'm not sure if you do, there are a lot o f makes out there with lo-po engines that car be easily converted in to a screamer. So I 'm not sure hold old you are looking at.
