I'm okay with the Mustang winning this one. They are two different kinds of beaters. One the bargain performance beater. The other is of the last for eternity variety. Just depends what you're after. You know my vote.

While I've only ever seen beater AW11s, you can pick up a driving fox body for a few grand and have 300hp with a visit to Summit Racing and a couple hours of your time. The 5.0L V8 is amazingly easy to massage with bolt on parts.

I'd rather have a nice AW11 than a nice Fox, but shitty AW11s are shitty and shitty Fox's are still pretty awesome. Same reason it beat the CRX.

I agree that the 5.0 Fox is a great option but its not exactly common. The 4age in the AW11 is a great starting point for modifications too and as the engine is common its not a big pain to fix something when it breaks. It comes down to personal preference and I have to choose the lightweight, MR setup.
