Cars Illustrated - Volume 5 Number 6 (DIGITAL EDITION)

Drag Tests!

5.0 Mustang LX, kickass and take names for 10 grand

350 Trans Am GTA, excitement from Pontiac?

Two wild new performance cars out of Detroit were featured on this standout issue of Cars Illustrated.  While the Pontiac disappointed the writers, the Ford impressed the world.  The Mustang did everything the Cars Illustrated staff wanted – it was cheap, fast, and it was a winner on the street.  This issue single handedly launched the 5.0 Mustang phenomenon with “Five Liters of Fury”.  When Cars Illustrated started ripping off 13.90s in a stock Mustang, Ford couldn’t build them fast enough.
