Interesting data: "The 1941 Packard Custom Super Eight One Eighty Convertible Victoria represents the absolute pinnacle of American luxury. As Packard's flagship model, the “180” was designed to compete with the world's finest marques, featuring a whisper-quiet 356 cubic-inch straight-eight engine that produced 160 horsepower, the most powerful engine in a passenger car at the time.
With its luxurious interior, power-operated windows (a rarity in 1941), and iconic “Goddess of Speed” hood ornament, this model remains one of the most coveted prizes for classic car collectors worldwide".
The 1962 Ford Thunderbird is a standout example of early-’60s American design—low-slung, futuristic, and full of jet-age flair. Part of the “Bullet Bird” generation, it leaned into personal luxury over muscle, delivering a smooth ride wrapped in bold, unmistakable styling. From the sleek body lines to the aircraft-inspired details, it feels like something straight out of the Space Age. And in that color, it absolutely steals the show.

The Jaguar E-Type is one of those cars that just makes you stop and stare—it’s got that impossibly long hood, those smooth curves, and a presence that still feels special even today; when it came out in 1961 it wasn’t just beautiful, it was seriously quick too, and the fact that you could get that kind of performance without Ferrari-level money made it an instant legend that people still fall in love with the moment they see one.

Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 (1968–1972)
This thing is basically a luxury missile — a stately four-door with a massive V8 stuffed into it, making it one of the fastest sedans in the world at the time. It looks like a dignified banker’s car but goes like a muscle car.

I'm going to show you a car I had in the late 80s. A Dodge RT, the same color as that one, yellow with black stripes. It was huge compared to today's cars. And it was a gas guzzler, but the fuel was manageable; Besides, it was a time when I lived in the south of the country and fuel cost half as much there.
@louis There's a lot of car there for a 2 door motor, O often said to my self if I won a pot full of money I would get hold of one these big motors
