    This is a shot in the dark (and probably in the wrong section) but the upcoming GT350 (if there is one) is rumored to have alot of things. C&D reported a 5.0 engine ect ect What if the GT350 had a ecoboost 3.5? fits the car code. Would be a easy (ish) swap and complete the ecoboost options...

    Have these cars ever been cool?

    Has anyone here EVER seen a cool looking one? All the good stuff was in them in the 80's-90s. Should have been popular, but no one ever does them up? If anyone has photos of some nice ones post em up
