The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Was going to vote Mirada until I got to the very last car. The JL Gremlin is one of their best castings... and it's a Gremlin. Hands down the best of the best this week. Sentimental vote to the Corolla since I owned a real '98 in blue.

The sentimental vote belongs to me -- I liked driving that little blue Corolla.

I guess it could be considered a sympathy vote, but with as little love as Muscle Machines get around here and the Camaro *is* from their best work ever (even if not the best representative of that work), and seeing another being featured isn't likely anytime soon...gotta vote for my beloved Muscle Machines!

Voted for the Mirada. Finding a replacement for a childhood favorite is priceless.

Should be no surprise I voted for the Gremmy. My maternal granny had a 74 Gremmy in blue with white stripes, though it wasn't an X package. And my grandpa had a turd brown 72 that my uncles turned into a drag car after he passed. I have many fond memories of Granny's Gremmy. The sound of the bad exhaust told us she was coming, riding in the back seat and looking out the huge rear window and memories of her having chains installed on the rear wheels every winter to get around. Granny is a retired home health nurse so some of her clients lived out in the sticks and she had to get there. Plus there was always Gosport Hill on highway G76 she had to fight to get to town. The Gremmy always made it. It was just a neat car. I was born in 84 and while growing up I never saw many Gremlins. Needless to say she traded it in on a 83 Buick Skylark that was a huge piece of fecal matter. I always wanted to drive a Gremlin or a Pacer.
