    The word is they're seriously considering a modern version of the Torino Cobra, and from the concept photo....BUILD IT...and get Clint Eastwood to do the commercial!

    No specs are available yet, but I'm sure it won't rival the Stang in performance. That wouldn't be smart business for Ford.

    Please. Until this car, there's no major production Ford that can compete with new Camaro for looks, or the newer Charger, outside of the last T-Bird, maybe.

    The newer Mustangs are ok. They're not ugly, but they're not head turning.

    I'm not talking about performance. Just looks.

    Not at all. We've all come to realize that it's FinD's lot in life to attempt to piss on anything the majority of people think is good, cool, good looking, etc. etc. :wink2:

    Cause no...this turns no heads. :rolleyes:

    Yes, it is my opinion. I'm not crucifying anyone for disagreeing with it either. Too bad, I rarely get that in return..especially from Captain Hair Band.:lol::lol::tongue2::tongue2::knucks::up::up::sidelol::sidelol::yahoo:

    I've told this to others, I'll tell it to you too. The "hair band" thing. Truly laughable. Wish I was ever in one, then it would at least be relevant.

    And I keep forgetting....you disagreeing = perfectly okay.

    Anyone disagreeing with you disagreeing = WAAAAAAAH!

    Wonderful example. I make a joke after you said what you did and I'm "crucifying" you. Gods...GTFU.

    If you got your hair out of the way of your eyes, you might be able to see that you're the one that disagreed with me. As typical though, you're pigheaded, come after me, yet somehow think I'm the one that always causes this.

    I made a harmless post of my opinion. The Great Pagan, didn't like it.

    Here...read this thread.

    http://forums.thephins.com/showthread.php?p=1217634#post1217634

    See the back and forth between everyone in there? See everyone getting all whiny and *****y about it? Oh wait...that's right, no one was.

    Maybe because no one in there has a persecution complex and actually has enough of a sense of humor not to turn into a teenage girl when something is said.

    You would do well to learn from that. If you're going to cry like a woman any time someone disagrees with you, it might be a smart move not to throw out any opinions. :wink2:

    I see a lot of Bentley Coupe in that design (headlights & rear fenders), which is a good thing. :up:

    Oh, sorry for derailing the thread. :lol:

    Back on topic...

    You think? I think the new Camaro has more of a "boxy" look to it. Blunt snout, wide haunches. The Torino is way more streamlined and angular.

    too me it kind of likes like they chopped the top of a Camero down and changed the grill and lights up a bit, but similar IMO


    EDIT: it's that back fender I think... to me it looks like a GM style fender, like a Challenger or something

    I can see what you mean. It's that classic, basic ponycar shape.

    I like this Torino too. I think it does look similar to the Camaro.

    Pagan, when you say won't rival the performance of the Stang, do you mean the Cobra? Because anytime that snake logo is on a car you know it's gonna be packin'.

    It has to at least be more powerful than the current Mustang GT.

    My guess is it would be in between the Mustang GT and the GT500 as far as performance, and priced accordingly (If it does get put into production, which I'm assuming it will)

    and if clint eastwood is ever sitting in the car, it automatically goes 65 MPH faster....because his awesomness feeds into the horsepower

    Yea that's what I meant. They can't have the Torino as the king snake.

    Should be interesting. They're saying the 2012 GT500 will come stock with 650 horses. I'm betting the Torino will hover around 500.
