What's in our Car Town Garage today? (November 30, 2012)

What's in our Car Town Garage today?

1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1

If you remember the Bond film Diamonds Are Forever, then to you, this Mustang Mach 1 did the two-wheel stunt to slip through the walls that are unfit for the car's width. Cool isn't it? Anyway, back when the first Ford Mustang was released, almost half a million Mustangs were sold in its first year but for some, they think the Mustang's performance wasn't enough to satisfy their fancies so they made the Mach 1 version and with such success, 72,458 units were sold.

2008 Lamborghini Reventon

If you think the Murcielago is not quite special, this is the Lambo for you. The Reventon is styled to look like a fighter jet plane and it comes with the same V12 engine that powers the Murcielago. They only made 20 of them, which makes it very rare to see one of these.

2010 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4

The LP560-4 Gallardo comes with the 5.2L V10 engine, new at that time, that produces 560HP of power, making this faster than the old Gallardo Superleggera and the Ferrari Scuderia. Some supercars have launch control that you have to put it in first, left foot on the brakes, build revs, and set off when the light is green but the LP560-4 has a different feature called Thrust Control, which sounds as cool as the hero of an airport thriller movie. Put it in Corsa Mode, traction off, left foot on the brakes, build revs, and set off when the lights go green. With Thrust Control, the Gallardo 560 sure knows how to make mince meat out of its rivals and it's nicer to drive. You have a choice; you can either have a dog or a car that can be driven by one...
