I guess I should start off this review by saying I am a Ford Mustang aficionado. I own a '95 GT Convertible and will not rest until I have a fully restored, supercharged '65. I don't know what it is about Mustangs (I love all American muscle, actually), they're just awesome for some reason.

So, the other day, I am in my local media store, when I come across the game for a very low price. I remembered when I got Ford Racing 2 for a very low price as well, and it was okay, but just, eh. (I wrote a review for it, read that for more details) So I figured, well, it's got lots of 'stangs, and I can race 'em... could be fun. Bought it and went home.

I was surprised. This was/is better than expected! Lots of sweet, sexy Mustangs, great, colorful detailed cities/racing tracks (my personal favorite is Miami), and the graphics are very colorful. I also like how you can choose between an automatic tranny or a manual (stick). My real-life Mustang is a manual so you can guess which one I usually go for (it makes racing a little easier). From a base '65 coupe to the '05 GT, many awesome ponies are represented in this game.

So why do I take off half a point? Well, picture this familiar racing-game scenario: you're far in the lead, you think you got it beat, suddenly, out of nowhere, your opponents magically overtake you. Frustrating, right? Well, this game has that faux pas too. However, I also discovered you can overtake them, as well. (Just call me the comeback kid!) That's a small gripe, however.

Overall, if you like Mustangs, check this game out. Since Midnight Club 3 has no Fords (sadly), this can be your Mustang racing fix.

This is a great game for the money! Multiple race tracks and nothing but MUSTANGS, MUSTANGS, MUSTANGS! You can select from a vast array of Mustangs and the more you play and win the more cars you can unlock. The tracks are detailed as are the cars (you can even select different colors) and you can choose between a guick race or start career mode that let's you win more cars and unlock more tracks. The only drawback is the background music is pretty lame, but for 20 bucks or less you get a lot of bang for your buck!

I love this game and recomend it to others. I love playing this game you can actually do teams too.

I am a Mustang Enthusiast. So, accordingly, I HAD to buy this game. It's great to see this many beautiful cars in one game. However, as far as game-play is concerned, it could use some work. If you want the perfect car racing game, I suggest something from the Gran Turismo universe. However, if you just want to look at a bunch of Mustangs, and grow bored quickly, this game's for you! Seller was top-notch though. I'd buy from them again.

I wrote a review for this worthless game, but it was not published, it is so bad, I took it to Gamespot and sold it for 2 dollars, the 2nd day after I got it.
