Mike,

Go to the photo gallery and click "next" 8 times. Check it out in the
color black. It looks sharp! But the car looks even better in the
sheet metal.

I agree. There was supposed to be hot rod Lincoln LS w/ a 5.0 modular.
But, I think those plans were axed in the name of cost cutting. Oh well,
not like I could afford one anyway!

It's a sexy lil sumunagun. Now if IT had 400 horses, I'd want one.
Byt at $32k, I'd drive a Cobra instead.

I agree. I think they are making a big mistake again (Prowler). The
Crossfire needs the Hemi. But, at least Dodge is getting back w/ rwd V-8
cars. Check out www.thecarconnection.com today. They have some spy shots
of the Dodge Magnum. It will get the Hemi. And rumor has it that the
Charger (based on the same platform as the Magnum) will debut in March
of 05 (see article in www.detnews.com on halo cars).
