Which V8 coupes do you think look cool? I think the AMX was one of the best. :cool:

The ford is a real race car. By far the best of the three.
IF you can find somebody willing to sell you one be prepared to part with A lot of money. Seven figures or so.

Yeah, the Mustang is great looking and in its heyday had some hot motors. So did the mid size Ford Torino. :)

for my 40th birthday(long way off) i'm getting a cobra kit and dropping a nice ford crate motor in it and using the race gas tank. that's 30gallons my friend. gonna need it to get to the grocery store, LOL. but i'll get there real fast!
i was visiting a forum for cobra fans and some dude had put twin turbo vette motor in his. i know, sacralige but can you really argue with a 850+hp shelby cobra?

The Bricklin SV-1. Front engined Pantera competitor, powered by American Motors 360, then Ford 351 V8. Available in a most excellent range of safety "day glo" colors. Way cooler than a DeLorean. :cool:

Why have 8 cylinders when you can have 12? The BMW 6 series test car using the BMW V12 motor. Old 6 series looks good, new one sucks IMO. :(

The new 760Li looks pretty hot IMO. But I'll take the one up there any day.
