Ok, this is just too cool. I've personally never seen any of these, but this is a nice collection.

I've always thought these were cool:

Couldn't shake a Cortina with my BMW 320.  When he passed me, sure'nuff, it had the green stripe, Lotus badges and negative camber.

So he says he doesn't care for exhaust tips, chrome trim, or emblems...

...and then a few shots later, we see a stack of Supertrapp discs.


Awesome cars though. That's a really nice collection.

I expected those Alfas to put up more of a fight.

No challenge from the other Fords either.

I'd venture to say if you put him in one of the other Fords or Alfa, he'd do the same thing.  ;)
