This Mustang Chases Porsches for a Living | Jay Leno's Garage
I'm calling BS on the 160-180 MPH top speed he says it would do. The only way that car could do 180 is to drive it out the back of an airplane at 30000 feet.
Jay’s such a pro. Guy says he had a fox body mustang with a little over 200hp pegged to 180mph .. and Jay didn’t even blink 👍🏻😂
Gotta give Jay props for not laughing in this dude's face for saying he hit 160-180mph in these. lol
I'd
That’s a lie. They couldn’t go no 160+. Maybe no more than 130ish to 140 on the later fuel injected cars.
No Way The SSP Does 160-180 MPH. Ferraris, Lambos And Porsches At The Time Were not Doing That
Not to be disrespectful, but there's no way these were doing 160mph-180mph. They'd do 180kph no problem, but 160-180mph? The 2000 Mustang Corba R came out many years later in an era where automotive engineering was rapidly developing and it topped out at 170mph.
I can't imagine ANY officer these days recommending the force with all the politics and BS going on.
Jay is such a good interviewer, he should try getting a late night show someday.
I loved this episode. Not only the car, but the stories this highway patrol officer has. I could easily listen to Jay and this officer for hours without getting bored.
This guy was great really enjoyed listening to him, cars were cool too.
Jay Leno is driving, with cop in the car, while also not wearing his seat belt, with an actual patrol cop behind him lmao.
Once again, Jay nails it. Guest is as interesting as the car. Just excellent as always. Clearly the standard for shows like this. Jay, you are the best! 👍❤️
180mph in a stock 5.0?
When these CHP Mustangs had high mileage, the antenna and light bar holes were patched, they got a quick paint job, and were sold as surplus. I had one, and loved it. It came with the air conditioning upgrades needed to keep a CHP officer comfortable idling in desert heat. It had a worn-out 1st gear and a rear axle that was geared for high speed, but a 2nd gear that was ideal for my obnoxious driving maneuvers in city traffic. Fun car, good times, sorry it got wrecked.
I was a Law Enforcement Specialist in the USAF 1983-88. In 1984 we got three 1984 LTD's with 302 V-8 motors. They were fast as hell
I saw Jay on Sunset this Sunday in his 911t while I was on my Chopper. It’s impressive how a story can take a vehicle to a whole new level of interest. His Porsche is a simple basic model but was the car Steve McQueen used in Le Mans so it has a value to it and if you watch Jays episode on his particular Porsche the story makes you suddenly have a whole new appreciation of something you’d probably never look at compared to some other models. He does the same here with a Mustang. He creates an honest and fascinating story on the history of the car that makes you just think of having one in a collection ... he’d make a sensational car salesman! Love the show, the honesty and the passion! Just sad that television no longer has talent like Jay anymore in late night, but at least we have him here.
My Dad was in the market for a Mustang in 1988. He wanted a manual, cloth seats, and AM radio. As he was talking to the salesman, a truck showed up with a bunch of Oregon State Police mustangs. He ended up getting one, and it was a company car to boot! He got pulled over once, going a bit fast, and the officer took extra time figuring out what was going on. It was registered as a company car, and, with the all white, blue pin stripe, and black painted Mustang wheels, it was clearly a SSP model. He eventually got off with a warning.
The show is always a pleasure to watch because Jay really loves cars and their history. Thanks Jay.
I like Jay he's a honest down to earth guy. One of only a handful in California
