Tywais Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Appears muscle cars are still alive and well. Feast your eyes on this 700hp monster and for only $427,000. http://www.cnn.com/2005/AUTOS/funonwheels/...maro/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corkscrew Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 This is the first new car I ever bought. A Mercury Cyclone Spoiler with a 429 cubic inch (7000cc) Cobra Jet engine rated at 370 HP. Had 4-speed Hurst power shifter, anti-slip differential. Fastest I got it up to was near 300kph. One of the last American muscle cars built, and the sound of the engine was awsome. At that speed the spoiler actually worked as I could feel the rear end pressing down on curves. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just a little less than 500HP. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Beautiful engine block, appears to have a turbo charger? Which model MB is that? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 2006 SL 55 AMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
