ABSORUTERY NOTHING!!!!!!

It was plenty shiny in the first one, before Max started beating on it...

Yep.

I guess I'll go ahead and be the E39 M5 enthusiast who's branded a heretic, because I like it quite a bit. To me, this gets back to the style of the E39 M5, in that it doesn't really broadcast that it's a performance car, but there's enough there to make you wonder what's up and enough cues to tip off the informed…

Hmm... sounds just exactly like my M5. Yeah, I voted NP too.

Dear God, that intake manifold is just art. I would seriously buy one just to hang it on my garage wall.

I like the cut of your jib.

Runner-up: the BMW S62 V8. A brutal torque-monster; the Germans prove that they can do American-style muscle, and do it at a world-class level. Pure sex in the M5 and Z8, beyond the impossible in the Ascari KZ1 and A10, and a race winner in Daytona Prototypes.

Alex von Falkenhausen's masterpiece, the BMW M10/M12. Stayed in production from 1961 to 1987 and was the basis of the E30 M3's world-beating S14. How many other passenger car engines can you name that were winning Formula 1 championships twenty years after being introduced? And reportedly, the basis of the…

Based on my experience with Maaco, the level workmanship shown here with the tape-stripes is vastly higher than he could expect there.

Screw you, Mitsu. May bankruptcy take you into that good night soon.

Check the dateline before the wrist-cutting begins. I think we're being trolled by a master.

It was also apparently not unheard of for these to be returned to Hertz with a straight 6 where the V8 once lived, and for a local secretary-mobile to suddenly be a whole lot quicker...

All a legit Shelby needs to have to be cost-effective for restoration at this point, given the market, is an intact VIN plate. Everything else can be bought easily.

Seconded. If this hasn't actually happened, it needs to.

CP! For that price I'd take an F10 M5 (just guessing at price) plus a Cayman S.

NP if you Just Gotta Have a 2000GT; you probably won't find one better. But I'm 6'4", so it's not on my Just Gotta Have list. Also, I could get a Miura SV and a Ford GT for that price (yeah, I know, probably too tall for either one, shut up and let me dream.) So CP for me, but voting NP for the sake of the Just…

I really, really want to buy one of these, import it to the US, not Mad Maxify it, take it to Ford shows, and watch the puzzled looks on people's faces and listen to people flagrantly misidentify it.

America! Fuck yeah!

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Espada was bad enough... not a Miura!
