There really isn't any wrong answer (except Mustang II ) but for me it is about rarity and value. Notches aren't really rare, and comparatively not very valuable. Same with the newer mach 1's.

Why would you have a '03 Cobra and an '03 Mach 1 in the same top 10 anyway? Same motor, just Cobra is Supercharged and they have different body kits on them. One or the other and Cobra > Mach 1 lol.

The best "said" of the Boss's the '71 Boss 351? And I had one of those '78 King Cobras once. Kind of a P.O.S.

How about a Boss 302 with a Boss 351 motor? Years back a co-worker had it and let me borrow it from time to time with the assumption my life was on the line if anything happened to it...lol

They only made the GT350H in 66.
They made 50 in blue, they only had the gold rocker stripes, no "LeMans" stripes (Only black or white came with those, standard on black, option on white.).
The blue will have a C4 automatic.
Only the first 85, all black, had the 4 speed.
Hertz made them do the rest in auto because they were replacing too many clutches.
