Celebrating the coolest cars ever made, nothing like the sound of that engine when you turn that key.
Muscle car is an American term used to refer to a variety of high-performance automobiles. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines muscle cars as "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." A large V8 engine is fitted in a 2 or 4 door, rear wheel drive, family-style full-size car designed for four or more passengers. Sold at an affordable price, muscle cars are intended for street use and occasional drag racing. They are distinct from two-seat sports cars and expensive 2+2 GTs intended for high-speed touring and road racing.
The MK4 is Factory Five’s most popular kit, and this one, Dave’s personal car, is set up like most customers build their cars. We found that the softer suspension allowed for a much more relaxed drive than the track-oriented Factory Five cars. Unlike the rest of the test cars we drove that had Ford small-blocks, the red roadster uses a modern 5.0L Coyote V8, just like the one you’d find under the hood of an ’11-and-later Mustang GT. However, the 5.0L in the roadster only has to haul around 2,400 pounds versus a Mustang GT’s 3,600 pounds. There are downsides to cars of this size, and we’re not just talking about luggage space. The MK4, with its short wheelbase, is not as easy to slide around corners as the Daytona coupe, and both cars have narrow footwells. Most of us had no problems, but those with caveman feet will have to steer clear of combat boots when strapping in behind the wheel.
