Der Kraft Durch Freude Wagon.

What's amazing is how iconic Hitler's People's Car has been since that POS blew his friggin dome off. And of all people, those moronic hippies falling all over themselves to drive and be seen in Hitler's personal mode of mass-murder transportation. Like they have 0 idea of the car's reason for being.

Ford should be so bright as Porsche in the development and evolution of the Mustang... 60 years and unmistakable.

That's a classic libtard for you

I clicked on it for fun but what a horseshit list. Leave it to MotorTrend. Some are warranted but others are jokes.

Yeah... Tesla and Miata... I like them both fine, but "iconic"? 75 years goes back to 1948... XKE not listed? GT40 not listed?, '57 Chevy, GTR, Viper... Delorean (good or bad, it's iconic)

Yeah, they missed a lot of cars, but I guess they had to keep it short to be meaningful.

If you look at the overall list, they hand mostly picked the cars that changed the course of automotive development and history, or created a significant lasting impact on car culture. From that perspective, Models S and Miata belong to this list a lot more than something like Viper. It's not a list of best cars in history

I voted Mustang, of course, but the Jeep was a close second, having had five.

Jeep #5 lives right next to my '15 in my shop.

“Iconic” a poor choice of wording then. Many cars have been named “iconic” by the media but were unimportant a Gremlin comes to mind, or a Hummer… “Significant”, “important”, “game-changing” would be a more appropriate choice to describe a car that changed the automotive world. In that respect, I agree the Viper didn’t really change anything (but actually, wasn’t it the first modern V10 to really catch hold?… trend setter in that respect). The Miata even less so. Its a great car, a reliable Lotus Elan… But what trend did it start? Iconic means memorable and representative of a time. Saying that, I’d add a Trans Am to the list. Who doesn’t know what they are and relate them to the ‘70s?

No argument here, I agree with that.

There are lots of documentaries on Miata which answer this question. It is the car that redefined the class of lightweight low power nimble and affordable sports cars. I understand that it might not be interesting to you (we are on mustang forum after all), but it has a significant role.

On a similar note, I'm surprized they have nothing about hot hatches. Golf GTI deserves to be on this list more than a 911 in my opinion.

The article is what it is, wanna hate it, that’s your prerogative. Don’t agree with the choices? So be it. Doesn’t change a thing.

Well the article accomplished it's goal. It got a bunch of car nuts to sit around and talk about cars. Let me restate that; it got a bunch of car guys to sit around and argue (what we do best) about cars. Except for the one guy who knows some history, but does not understand it.

Voted for the Stang, but it looks like the Jeep crowd has been spreading the word to vote. I too am a Jeep dude, but I genuinely don’t care for Wranglers. CJ’s are cool, but stick me in an XJ, ZJ or WJ and I am happy… until it breaks (which doesn’t take long).

 

[Evolvd]

Looks like the Vette is going to take it, they’re leading Mustangs by 30% points.
