The MAD Corsair is back!
Tired of the notion that American muscle and pony cars have gotten too soft recently? Fear not… The new Corsair is here to restore some old-fashioned law and order to the streets!
All-new for 2002, the latest MAD Corsair perfectly recaptures the spirit of its ancestors and combines it with modern technology for a truly authentic muscle car experience. This great survivor of the muscle car wars is back with a vengeance… Imports beware!
Model shown is Corsair GT in Chrome Yellow with leather seats and aero kit as part of the GTE package.
Standard features include:
-
Retro-modern exterior styling that evokes memories of the famed 1972 model, conveying an air of ruthless aggression even when standing still, and especially so when on the move. Don’t worry about rust - the high-strength steel chassis is built to last, as are its fully treated body panels, so expect this car to keep running for a very long time, in the true American tradition. And by the way, we offer a 5-year/60,000 mile warranty across all trim levels for guaranteed peace of mind during ownership.
-
A 6.3L all-alloy pushrod V8 delivering 300 horsepower and 345 foot-pounds of torque (on 86 AKI/91 RON regular unleaded!) to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission (or an optional 5-speed automatic) and a limited-slip differential, allowing you to perform a big, smoky burnout with ease. And if you feel the need for speed, it will reach 60 mph in 5.5 seconds, top out at over 160 mph and cover a quarter-mile in just 14 seconds from a standing start.
-
4-wheel independent suspension (dual wishbones up front, multi-link in the rear) tuned to provide a comfortable ride while also retaining enough agility to put the fear factor into any and all known rivals (both imported and domestic) on any twisty back road, or even on a road course. And with 4-wheel vented disc brakes with ABS, plus switchable traction control (stability control optional) you’ll have plenty of stopping power in reserve all the time, every time.
-
4 comfortable seats trimmed in genuine leather, with real alloy trim to lend that 100% American premium feel for the real world, and a high-quality 10-speaker sound system incorporating not just a tape deck, but also a CD player with a 10-disc changer for when the roar of your engine is not enough of an accompaniment for your daily drive. And we haven’t forgotten about safety either - driver, passenger and side airbags are provided as standard along with manual 3-point belts for all four occupants.
Base price for the 2002 MAD Corsair GTE starts from $38,000 (including $3,000 gas-guzzler tax). Please contact your nearest dealer for test drive inquiries and option availability.
