Most Desirable Australia Muscle Car and Why?

[TZENU]

Phase III
Phase IV
Phase II
VK Brock SS
A9X (my old man's first 8!)

Why? Clean cut sexy lines and Because they are all classic V8s from Downunder....

[wulos]

I notice a LOT of people have commented about the E49, yet not many about the REAL go getter of the E49's the A84 Bathurst spec model.
For those that are not aware, they were the bigtank models, triple webbers, quick ratio steering etc etc (only 20 odd made - I know the owner of one of these quite well, & MAN they go well)

[Psycho Chicken]

VK Brocks are nice, know a guy with the toughest one I've ever seen. 355, 5 speed, FRs, HDT scoop, it's got the best note to it.

My favourites:
XA GT Coupe
XY GTHO Phase III
XC Cobra
68' Shelby GT500KR

[Allen]

Gimmie the Gulf Stream Aqua GT40 anyday... chassis number 1075... the only car to win Le Mans twice!

and for cruising, a sweet 57' T-Bird Roadster... (ditch the Y-block for a BOSS 260)

maybe then i'll be happy...

[Sprint_ED]

for me it would be
silver fox XW Phase 2
Silver BA GTP
ed xr8 spirnt (what i got now, with a bit more ingine work though :P)

[Zedjay]

id like one of those alfa body holden mid mount things
cant remember what they were called .
like the one that poor bloke lost is life in at eastern creak THE JUDGE

[MethodX]

Giocattolo , which means toy in Italian.

XY Phase 3
XW GT
L34 Torana
E49 Charger
VH Group 3 Brock


Overseas stuff - Detomaso Pantera
Yank stuff, way too much to mention.

[myxr6]

How about a fully polished aluminium 427 AC supercharged shelby Cobra.

[bathurst77]

Force7V thanks

For somethig totally different I
Wouldnt mind a XC Sundowner with 351 4speed, GS trim etc....
OR an Arcadipane Concorde or October-Car

[Steffo]

Silver Fox XW GT-HO PhaseI - Lovely car, and has a 351W, how could I resist?

Starlight Blue XW GT-HO PhaseII - More lovely car...

Raw Orange XY GT-HO PhaseIII - The ultimate Aussie muscle car, in the coolest colour combo it had IMO

Onyx Black XA GT RPO 83 Coupe - Yeah! lol

That's about it for me... though a XR GT would find place in my garage too... the car that started it all

[FPVWEPN]

ed xr8 sprint ???????????????? r u serious??????

obviously phase 3&4
but dont forget the ea gt

[Falcon SXR8]

XA coupe for me just the hottest shape around, also an xy gt wouldn't be to bad...

[RAREV8]

Touché!
In no particular order: RPO83 coupe, Phase IV, HG/HK Monaro, Cobra,428 Cobrajet XW, Landau.

[Falcon Coupe]

Electric Blue phase 3, i went in one as a 14yo doing 240kph down a country road, that leaves a serious impression on a young boy.
Second choice is XA GT hardtop (which i have), classic shape, Bathurst winner and the Mad Max factor make it a favourite.

Nice choice!
The only production Phase 4 will never be forsale im told. No ones seen it in ages either.
The 2 remaining prototypes get around from time to time though!

[Bucknaked]

Sandman
A9X Torana
HK Monaro
Brougham

[formerly]

in the shed out the back i would be having
#1. XC Cobra
#2. XW GT
#3. last but not least, have always dreamed of a 351 XD replica of the tru blu falc!!

[ar3nbe]

Cant say no to a Phase 4 or even a Phase 3. The Vk group a (bluey) would be nice i think, as would the Walki but theres to many dumasses driving replicas of them today, so ill stick with a Phase 4

[chief]

For me it could be a long list but lets keep it short and sweet.

XY HT HO Phase III
XA GT HO Phase IV
XA RPO 83
XC COBRA Bathurst spec (Build numbers 2-30)
E49 Charger
1967 Shelby Mustang GT500E

I have sat in that phase llll it was at Oran Pk yesterday doing a DVD shoot with some other wild cars. An AC Cobra, Lookalike Moffit XC coupe, some wild Commodores with 8 throttle body induction 6.2 litre and a turbo charged EB...
The colour of that ph lV is red - orange..Very low kmlres..
I like the early Falcon GT's..A.C Cobra, Saleen Mustangs..GT40's[any of them] A factory Rally Escort with BDA engine to the latest 4wd WRC would be nice...

[Dodge]

bill burkes 428 powered XW or any of bathurst winning cars A9X is for sale at 245K
i would like the mid mounted charger

[noosacuda]

My choice would have to be anything with a 426 Hemi!!! (...blow the doors off anything ending in "I"...) A Plymouth Superbird or Dodge Daytona,a big block 'Stang,6 pak 340 or 440 Mopar.I'm bored with my Sprint-a glorified taxi(sedan,YUK!)

[Tornado]

GT40 - very sexy car, love the look of it
E49 Charger - Also love the look and not too many people now how fast they are.

[Falcon Coupe]

Most Desirable Australia Muscle Car and Why?

I don't see many reasons why, do people just like the look of these cars or is there another reason ?
I don't beleive Mustangs fit in the Aussie muscle car car catergory.
