1990 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"Unbelievable reliability and extreme performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have only broken the clutch quadrant.
General comments?
This was the car I wanted since I was about 10 years old.
The first car I drove (mom's car) was a 1997 Camaro Z28.
This car doesn't handle quite as well as the f-bodies, but it will take them in a straight line with a couple bolt-ons.
I drive this car hard, and I've only broken the clutch quadrant because it is made out of plastic. I replaced it with a aluminum one though.
The only drawback I see from the legendary fox body mustang is the replacing of the rear tires every 10,000 miles, or less. :)
