If you had to own an American car...

[Turf1600]

Why is it you guys keep posting up cars that aren't American? XR4TIs, current "Pontiac" GTOs...an American badge and motor does not an American car make, unless we're talking old Cobras and such.

If the GTO's American, then I'm including the DeTomaso Pantera, early body cars, in my list, purely because of the firebreathing American V8 they happen to have used...and because an American metal band has the same name.

Yeah - merkur was built in germany - but it was owned by ford and marketed primarily to the US. you could use your same logic to say that some VW's aren't german - as they are built in mexico.

That one yeah...but I'd take the green one in the back. That thing's a ball to watch at the historic races.

Speaking of historic, we need to go a little older here, folks. Now THESE are American cars. The Duesenberg...400 horsepower, modern car performance and handling...in the early 1930s. The second is an old Cadillac...yeah, they came with V16s back then. Can you imagine rolling down the street in something this classy? I can't. Just a little sample of what's back there before the '50s...

New Challenger SRT8 with the 6.1



Maybe a Saturn Sky (de-badged, of course)



And an old-school GT350



Is an Ariel Atom considered American? It's built here in Oregon.

[delphini]

It would certainly be a MOPAR.
