Now that's a FORD!

New for 2005 (introduced in 2004) @ rate of 150K. Inspired by the 1967 GT. Need I say more other than to say it will have 500 horsepower and around 1000 will be built a year?

That one is sure to be a rocket!!
The odds of actually seeing one driving around will be very slim with the low production.
A future vision of mine does see Lex driving one though!!:-y

I am getting real sweet on this right now..
The 2005 Chrysler 300c
5.7L 345Hp Hemi rear wheel drive.

If CATCables hits the NYSE, I WILL be driving one of those. hehe.

Trevor, that's a totally radical sedan! 8O It's just beefy enough that I like it. Not sure about the grill up front, but overall, I like the concept. It's fresh, it's powerful, what's not to like? :)

1000 made (the GT40)?

How many Dodge Datona 500's and Plymouth Superbirds were made? (The ones with the pointy noses and big ugly wing?), I ask 'cause I have an uncle who owned a Superbird with a 440 and a 4 speed std.

It has since been fully restored in WPG by a company called Ground Up Restorations, I caught a picture of it in the local paper this summer - it still looked, well, odd.

I agree Lex..Something new and fresh.
If your not sure of the grille, here's another. It's the Dodge Magnum, a similar variance ,except with a station wagon type style.
It features a supercharged version of the 5.7-liter HEMI, churning out an estimated 430 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque.

I like it too, however the Chrysler is a little more classy.

Bent, the Superbird was a very rare care indeed. I think there were only like 1400 made ever. Maybe. Ugly in a way, but awesome in other ways. I've seen one in person before. I always kept my eye out for one under a barn somewhere to buy. :LOL:

The Hemi Superbird is the rarest, and commands the biggest bucks. The 440 was the standard power plant for it I think.
