:huh:
Not so sure I'd drive it. The nose looks like a Ford to me?
With 300hp I'm sure it would be fun to drive....but...I gotta like the looks to wanna drive it...and that car just doesn't do it for me.  :alan2cents:

I`ve never loved the front end treatment of the F-bodies but I would still definitely drive an F-body road runner or that Super Bee.

I do agree the grill treatment in most F bodies was a bit too formal. There were a couple that weren't too bad looking although the egg crate styles were the most common.

Was looking for some pictures of different F body grills and came across this. Never knew these cars existed. Swiss made derivation of the F body that replaced torsion bars with coil springs and came with 318/904 drivetrain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteverdi_Sierra

Two door version was pretty sporty looking, although the roof line looks like it was lifted from a Vega. These came with 440 4bbls and a/c: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteverdi_High_Speed

Monteverdi also had an SUV/Wagon they built on International Scout chassis as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteverdi_Safari#:~:text=The%20Monteverdi%20Safari%20is%20a,parts)%20came%20to%20an%20end.
