Because this is a standout model, ost people associate these with the iconic and up-market Mach 1 and Boss cars. The performance image of this super-straight blue coupe is further suggested by the Mach 1's front spoiler, ew driving lights, nd the vintage looking American Racing Torq Thrust wheels. Usually the Sportsroof cars are the survivors from this era, hich makes the coupe body a extra eye-catching. The design lines have matured into something quite special with a hint of flying buttress coming off the rear window.Inside the sea of blue continues. It has a nice distinctive look because the hue is different from the exterior, ut it matches the vinyl on the high back bucket seats, oor panels, nd dashboard.
