Poll: Which '71? (3/6/2025)

No wrong answers here! Two beauties. And while the Mach 1 is mighty nice, with a 429, that Cuda Hemi is just oh so OMG!!  Plymouth for the gimme!

Cuda for me too, even with its unfortunate facelift. The Mustang is too big.

With that Shaker Hood scoop who would not want one of these.  Plymouth for me.

I like both but the Cuda takes it although I prefer the less busy Challenger grill.

I like both but prefer the 'cuda by a large margin. I'm with Ed on the styling as it, to me, takes away what made the '70 perfect.

I've never been a fan of the Hemi. Its reputation is built on 12-second intervals, but in everyday use, it was a nightmare. The 429 is a maintenance hog, needing plugs often, and that task is overly complicated by shoehorning that gigantic engine into the Stang's frame. With all that, I love both cars. This is another inspired match. Once again, the interior tips my scales, this time toward the Mustang. 

Mustang lost me on this year style change. I very much prefer the looks of the Cuda

My favorite Cuda in my favorite color.  I preferred the quad headlights over the '70.  Would prefer the 440X6 for the engine.  Don't like the '71 up Mustang at all, give me a '67-'70 Mustang, preference to the '69 Boss 429.

@jkuvakas Disagree on these interiors, the Mustang steering wheel looks like one from a 4 door Galaxie

.much prefer the gauge arrangement on the Cuda.

I like both...today I'm going with the Mustang.

Gents, thanks for the pics and responses.
