The Mustang that got me interested in Mustangs (and Megan Fox)

Watched Transformers again and remembered what it was that got me interested in mustangs. Ironically I was more drawn to the Camaro having grown up with a collection of Trans Ams and Z28's. The bumblebee camaro was revolutionary at the time. Within a month I was in a dealership with 5k in hand to order an SS. That day I sat in the show room model but couldn't bring myself to order it. I found the Camaro just too uncomfortable for me.

That Mustang was KILLER though. Stuck in my mind for years. Such a stunning gorgeous machine.

Those wheels and the stance really set that car off.

How did they think that car, with that stance, looking as bada** as that was supposed to be a bad guy? Oh, wait a minute, figured it out. Product placement. They had to be PAID to make a Mustang into a bad guy. Got it.

I don't particularly love the s197 Saleens but Barricade was frickin awesome

Very sinister and very cool

Better than the hero's car


Well done Hollywood

No one talks about the yellow camaro in the movie anymore.

But they **** sure still talk about Barricade. The mock-up that one SAPD officer did with his Mustang is awesome. Unbelievable quality, and that is the baddest looking cop car ever built. Ever.

Got an '06 black GT premium after that movie came out. I'll never forget going through a traffic light with the windows down and hearing someone say "Barricade".

Came across this pic of a matte black covered mustang that I drooled over for an hour while out for a bike ride a couple years back. Also, is a pic of the first time i ever rented a mustang, back in 2011. it was a 6 cyl but i loved it just the same. drove it up the BC coast to a wedding on the ocean.

I was down in San Diego last summer and ran across this at Mustangs by the Bay.
