Pontiac Firebird, black, with the phoenix graphic.

Only because I had one as a kid (a matchbox one I mean), and thought it looked really cool.

One made an appearance in Kill Bill 2 too, no idea how they go or handle thou, pretty badly id imagine.

A 1969 Dodge Charger or a 1973 Ford Tourino both with the obvious paint jobs. I've seen a Dukes of Hazard Charger on Ebay, it looked like the real thing, but it was £30,000. Bit too much for a big heavy lump like that, but soooo cool

Shelby GT500 is awsome.
My brothers business partner has just had one delivered from the US, an exact
replica of the one in Gone in 60 Seconds.

500 bhp with a 150 shot of NOS !

I'll get some piccies up at some point.

A little picky I know but is a GT40 an American car?

For me it has to be a Chevy Corvette. 1960s-late 1970s.
