Thanks to No Bolts Left Behind on YouTube we get to see a thrilling matchup between a 1968 Mustang 5.0 V8 took and 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS turbo. It was a battle of eras, engineering, and philosophies—old-school American muscle versus a modern JDM import.
The Mustang, powered by a fuel-injected 302 Windsor V8 and a 4-speed automatic transmission, faced off against the Subaru, equipped with a JDM STI swap featuring a 2.0L WRX turbo engine and a manual transmission.
The Mustang, a classic embodiment of American power, showcased raw low-end torque and a roaring V8 soundtrack. The Subaru, on the other hand, brings agility and turbocharged all-wheel-drive action to the table. Despite their differences, both were closely matched in weight and horsepower, making this a race worth watching.
