I got the Mercury Cougar (same color) thinking that it was this one. Went home, DLM'ed it, and then realized that it was the wrong one. The cougar is an ok one, but not as good as this.

I picked up the Cyclone last night (and a Bimmer 2002 in green), and what I noticed is that it seems a little stubby compared to the real car. It should be more like the recent blue K&N Torino, they were essentially the same car. Maybe its the color, I didn't compare, but the Cyclone seems shorter than the Torino, which makes it look stubby. And I like the Cougar, if its the '67 I'm thinking of...but the orange with black roof came out a couple years ago, strange it would be in a current mix unless it was a return... |

Hot Wheels has two model year Cougars from the peak of the muscle car craze. I think the one that Stampede found is the '69 Eliminator version which does look a bit cartoonish. ![]() The other one is a bit older . . . it's the '68. ![]() Both pics courtesy SouthTexasDiecast.com
