Ford AC Cobra / Mustang Boss 302
OK, OK, I've got to mention my favorite Fords, just to be fair. ;-)
If the sky were the limit, I'd have a 427 Cobra, no question about it. There's no doubt that this car totally redefined the term "fast car"! It was the ultimate high-performance automobile of it's time, IMHO, hands down. Heck, even 30 years later, it was still the car that Dodge turned to as the inspiration for the Viper.
If I were limited to my favorite Mustang, I'd have to pick the '69 Boss 302. As with the Buick and the Olds, I was exposed to one of the things via a friend who owned one. I always liked the looks of the car, it handled really well, and I was very impressed with the amount of power that Boss 302 motor made!
