The 1984 Ford Mustang GT represented the final year of the Malaise Era, with its 302 cubic inch small block V-8 putting out 175 SAE net horsepower.
The next model year would see the output bumped to 210hp, which was the first time a Mustang engine had cracked the 200 horsepower barrier since the 351 Cobra Jet "Q-code" motor of 1973, which put out 266 net ponies and was the swan song of the original Muscle Car Era.
EDIT: This is an ‘83, actually. Anyway…
This one was photographed with a Sony a700 and a 16-80mm f/3.5-4.5 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* zoom lens.
