Oh dang christopher - how could i forget the green eyed monster that was a pretty hot car!
Belinda 7:26 pm April 16th 2008
I agree Christopher…the green eyed monster was a great looking car…
But the Vodafone cars look fantastic…

And he starts a thread!! look out for all the emails you going to get!!.
Personally i liked Craigs “Green eyed monster” with the silver and black

Ever?
Wow… I’d have to go with Allan Moffat’s Trans Am Mustang. Gotta love where this all began…
But oh man… his XW GT HO Phase II was HOT
(Don’t tell the mustang I said that…)
I can’t go past the classics… sorry… nothing sounds like them or looks like them these days - the new V8’s are just NOT the same.
Plus they ALL look the same these days… and they are all just a shell.
Back in the day they were all fair dinkum cars that all had their own style…
And the Fords were hot…
Did I say I liked classics and they are hot?
Haha

A fast car always seems like look better as well, therefore the MA Pirtek car is up there. Brocky’s fluro orange Malboro car comes to mind.

he he he he,you’ve got it bad rach.which mustang,the coca cola or brut 33.i prefer’d the brut 33 mustang
Kate 7:44 pm April 16th 2008
there is a Mach 3 for sale in Harcourt at the mustang reco place, was driving pst it every day for the last two weeks, i told myself more than once to keep driving!
I love the old XY GT the big tanks, but they are soo dear to buy now, we are trying to get our hands on one to restore but no luck so far

The Cat falcon of Craigs was hot. Team Vodafone cars rock as they are easily seen on the track.
Maid Marion 7:51 pm April 16th 2008
Ooooooo I’d have to go with the Coca Cola one
But as long as it’s a horsey… it’s alright by me

The need a Cadbury car that would be so pretty
all purple and stuff =)
Maid Marion 7:57 pm April 16th 2008
They could only have a Cadbury car if Cadbury sponsored someone… (since their colour ‘purple’ is trademarked/copyrighted or whatever… they ‘own’ it… how the blinking hell can you own a colour I wonder?)
Or… someone could just paint a car wild violet.
Maybe I could go into V8’s… I love my chocolate… Cadbury can sponsor me.
And Cold Rock… they can sponsor me too
Mmmmmmmmm chocolate and ice cream.

P.S. But I’d wanna race a mustang… and that just ain’t gonna happen
Maddy 7:59 pm April 16th 2008
Yeah I woud have to say the pritek and the green eyed monster as well and for modern 888 love the crome on them.
Maid Marion 8:02 pm April 16th 2008
*Giggle*

great topic j-dub… a tough one. Overall the best looking car…looks, shape and paint ? hmmm… so many great cars over the years. Have to agree with Rachael - Allan Moffat’s Coca-Cola Trans-AM Mustang is without doubt a work of absolute art. An absolute show-stopper. The Bowden family are lucky people to have this missile sitting in their garage.
I said in another thread on here that i have a soft spot for Jim Richards’ 1985/6 JPS BMW 635. When i was a wee boy this car was virtually unbeatable. I might be wrong but I think Jimmy still holds the record for the most consecutive ATCC victories with this car - I think it was 7 straight in 1985 ??
In terms of a car that looks fast - the Ford Sierra RS500 was a great looker. In terms of the best looking sierra (god there was so many) probably Dick’s 89 Bathurst winner. I also thought the A9X Torana 2 door Touring car was a horn looking thing (most Group C cars where !!)
In terms of V8 Supercars - the BF is probably the best looking bit of gear yet. Especially in Vodafone 2008 colours !
Maid Marion 8:22 pm April 16th 2008
Oh oops James…
(Do you think he really meant that?)
Well… now he’s going to say it does anyway. And I look silly.
Grr
