Each Mustang fan will say that the coolest mustang ever is its own and in our opinion (because we don’t own a Mustang) the coolest mustang ever must be a combination between great looks and state-of-the-art technology that will get you safe everywhere you need to go. And we almost forgot one of the most important aspects in a car, the speed; the coolest mustang ever must be very fast.
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
Let’s start with the 2010 Ford Mustang that hits the streets with a new modern look outside and inside. The interior comes with new technology and upgrade materials which make the habitat look very luxurious. The Mustang fans know that in this car tradition, you can find a car for every need, so the new Mustang comes with a V-6 and a V-8 engine and you can also choose from innovative glass roof, convertible roof or coupe.
At the beginning of this article we have talked about the speed and how important it is, so the new 2010 Mustang comes with 315 horsepower. With this new Mustang you can drive in any type of weather conditions thanks to the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the Advanced Electronic Stability Control. Both features come as standard, giving you world-class handling and steering.
We don’t have to forget about the classics and one of the coolest mustangs ever is the 1969 Mach 1 Mustang. It doesn’t have the technology we are used to nowadays, but it comes with fog lights, 18’’ wheels, wood steering wheel, front disc brakes and power steering. This mustang is in a very good condition and we found it on the Nevada Classic website for sale at about $32.000. With this amount of money you could buy any other new car, but the classics never die, so if you are a mustang fan on the website mentioned above you will find many other mustang models for sale.
The 1993 Charlie Booze Mustang is one of the fastest mustangs on the road. This bad boy was driven in Hot Street trim and it has the winner, because this mustang defeated all the cars in that race. In 2005 the Charlie Booze Mustang won the Hot Street Championship, this first place grew the production and the sales of mustang cars.
The next mustang has a nice and bright yellow color – it is the Stephen Harvey’s 1994 Mustang GT. This car looks cool and demands a lot of respect on the street. The ladies will admire it and the men will envy it. All the guys dream to drive this car which features a Turbonetics T76 hairdryer and TFT heads.
The Justin Burcham’s 2005 Mustang GT is also in the list of the coolest mustang ever. This car won the Nitto Tire/MM&FF 2005 Mustang Shootout powered by a ProCharger FR1 huffer, a DiaboloSport tune and a Zex nitrous kit. It is very hard to say which is the coolest mustang ever, but one thing we know for sure is the fact that the best mustang is the one you own and you should know that you are very lucky because these cars are really great and cool looking.

The minivans are for family road trips and for everyone who wants to go with their friends and have some fun, because they have enough space for almost 8 people depending on the brand and the minivan itself. For your family and your protection we present you the coolest and the safest minivans on the market.
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
Honda Odyssey is the best minivan on the market (a lot of reviews say it) and is the most expensive. You can find it from $ 27.00 to almost $ 40.00 depending on the model, engine, transmission and inside options. This expensive minivan is also safe: it earned four stars at rollover and five stars at impact. It is a reliable minivan and is fun to drive. The cargo bay is big and is easy to load. Hondo Odyssey offers 8 seats so know you can take everyone with you when you go on a road trip. The ABS (four-wheel anti-lock brakes), stability control, side seat airbags, overhead airbags and a 244 horse power engine make this car a safe one but also a quick one. The cargo flexibility and the great road manners make this cool minivan easy and fun to drive.
Toyota Sienna is the next
cool minivan, is not as safe as Honda Odyssey is but the price is almost the same. This minivan earned only four stars at driver’s safety and that means that in an accident the diver has almost 20% chance of serious injury. But there are many good things to say about this minivan, for example the fact that Toyota Sienna has the best cargo room in its class and the most powerful engine. The interior is luxurious and comfortable and is available on all-wheel drive that means the minivan’s reliability on the road is high. Toyota Sienna has the following standard features: stability control, driveline traction and ABS control, 16†steel wheels, air conditioning, side mounted airbags, airbag occupancy sensor, overhead airbags and a 266 horse power engine. This minivan is appealing, roomy and comfortable and is the perfect choice for a large family.
Kia Sedona is one of the least expensive cool minivans you will find on the market (from $ 21.000 to $26.595). Don’t think that if Kia Sedona is the best budget minivan it isn’t safe or comfortable. You will see that is safer than Toyota Sienna because it got top safety scores as the crash test. It is just as powerful and just as roomy as Honda Odyssey. A negative feature about this minivan is that the drive system, engine and electrical system seem to breakdown from time to time. A pro for this minivan is its 5 years warranty, 7-pasager seating and upscale features.
Mazda5 is for a smaller family because it has only 6 seats. This is the least expensive and smallest minivan on the market. Due to its size is easy to park and maneuver and it is fuel-efficient. The negative features of this car are: the lack of electronic stability control and the tiny cargo. It has an engine of 153 horse power, ABS and 17†alloy wheels and for easy access it has sliding rear doors. At the safety department Mazda5 earned 4-stars rollover ratings and 4-stars in a side collision.
Chrysler Town & Country is a cool and tempting minivan. It has a nice interior and optional it has TV or DVD screens for each row and satellite TV service. The cons for this minivan are the following: it has some reliability problems, the handling and the breaks are not the best you can find and the base models have an underpowered engine. You can find also models with 251 horse power engine, ABS, 8 way power passenger seat, cruise control, stability control, 8 way power driver seat and 17’ allot wheels. The Chrysler Town & Country minivan is family friendly due to its storage options and unique seats.
If you need a less expensive cool minivan that is just as roomy, safe and power as the most expensive minivans you need Hyundai Entourage. If you buy this minivan you will gave 3 months free service of XM satellite radio and climate control. Hyundai Entourage has 5 years warranty, it is a powerful and roomy minivan and it has a lot of standard features. One negative feature of this minivan is its electrical engine that seems to have some problems. It is a safe minivan with 4-star rollover ratings and 5-star impact.
Nissan Quest has a powerful V-6 engine and a roomy interior, all in a unique look (curved beltline, low nose and glass-paneled roof). Even if it looks great, this minivan has the following cons: few standard features and the lack of standard electronic stability control. It a fun to drive minivan and it is safe.
Dodge Grand Caravan is another cool minivan. This minivan has an abundant storage, a low price; you can get an optional satellite TV service and you have the possibility to choose from 2 models of trick seats. It has good safety ratings but it brakes down more often at long distances than other minivans.
Volkswagen Routan is the last, but not the least cool minivan we present to you. It is a very roomy minivan and it looks nice. It a 7-passanger minivan, with 4 doors and you can find it with 197 horsepower engine or 251 horsepower engine.
In the minivan department you have a lot to choose from and the market has to offer a minivan for each family.
