Looks like a model...


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Am I the only one that thinks the wheels look REALLY odd ? Like the paddles are too thick and the center cap is part of the "wheel" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

The fact its followed by the Pacer makes me ill. The Z, Landcruiser, corvair sure but the Pacer?


The fact that the writer listed the Pacer shows he's not to knowlegable about AMC cars. The most collectable AMC is this one.

'68 AMX TWO SEATED


I really wanted one of those back in the day. The only other US made two-seaters were the Corvette and the Shelby GT350/500. The early AMXs have been considered collectible for quite a while now and I think the article was highlighting cars that are just now reaching that level.

Early Thunderbirds
Ford GT-40
Pontiac Fiero
Ford EXP
Plymouth Prowler
Cadillac XLR

... and I'm sure several others that don't come to mind right now. I'm not 100% certain all were made in the USA, however.

Except, the purpose of the article was *not* to highlight the best, most ever collectable car ever made, but rather a list of odd cars that are just now starting to get collector status.

I was referring to 1968 cars that were contemporary to the AMX.
