Title: What Musle car do you wish was parked in your garage now Post by: Willbar on November 14, 2009, 09,02:42 PM Appart from all the usual really rare stuff like a XY or XA GT I think I would have either a HQ coupe with a 502 Chev or a ZD Fairlane with a 460 under the Bonnet.

A porsche 356 Speedster (circa 1665) (http://www.vinamtra.com.au/forum/gallery/61_14_11_09_8_08_52.jpg) Title: Re: What Musle car do you wish was parked in your garage now Post by: Willbar on November 15, 2009, 03,08:44 AM MMM dead Sexxy, but no musle.

Driving sportiness to the highest possible level is one of our favourite disciplines, perfectly executed in the SL. Its innovative AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission combines the sportiness and spontaneity of a manual transmission with the comfort of an automatic transmission to provide you with a great deal of driving pleasure. With its AMG 6.0-litre V12 biturbo engine, an output of 450 kW (612 hp) and maximum torque of 1000 Nm, the SL 65 AMG is the most powerful standard-production roadster in the world. This model emphasise superior performance through visible exclusivity. Dynamic AMG bodystyling, an impressive AMG bonnet, the chromed twin-pipe exhaust of the AMG sports exhaust system and the AMG spoiler lip at the tail end distinguish the image of the super athlete. SL 65 AMG: fuel consumption combined: 15.2 l/100 km, CO2 emissions combined: 362 g/km)[1] The only problem is it is speed limited to 340kmh...

Great looking car for something made around 1665. I am a Mustang man (boy). I have a 1966 fastback 289 v8. I also have a 1969 Mach 1 Cobra Jet Fastback with a 428 big block.

Yep, That's when Dr. ferry's Great Great grandfather decided to harness the horses up to the back of the coach. The vehicle went nowhere, and the horses ended up with flat noses!

I should have bought my grandad's XC sedan - he had hardly driven it, but it was a 6.
The XC Fairmont GXL is a close runner up. Almost any Mustang would do as well. For now I just have to make do with a "Muscle Bike" - the mighty XJR1300. Yesterday's technology today. Though the new Triumph Rocket looks a mean one. |
