my favourite was on one of the episodes of "RIDES" (I have them all, can't remember which season, etc) but they made a quick stop somewhere where a bunch of gear heads were and one guy had a nice truck like an F250 or F350 but it had twin 6 inch exhaust stacks going up like a truck.
The host said something like "that's a bit of overkill, isn't it". The guy replied, no it needs it cause I'm running a (can't remember how many thousands of hp) helicopter jet engine. When he started it, boy you should've seen the smile on people's faces!

The original hiller coupes were the best, the 300 and arrow coupes that followed sorta spoilt things.

I don't like with the BA coupe how they just kept the existing roofline. Looks underdone. I prefer the angle of the rear windows on the 300+ over the earlier Hillier coupes

Only thing I don't like about the 'lux is the flames on the shaker.
Should be black or something. A black grille might improve the look too.

yeah, colour match the scoop, some less conspicuous mesh, replace the garden edging flares with proper flares or just some new edging that hasnt distorted.
dosnt need much at all to be a nice truck imo.

Looks too much like the standard XR8. They've only really changed the number of doors the roof needs to go down a lot more to make it actually look like a coupe. Not a two door XR8

Take the XB coupe and XB sedan for example, complete different body shape from the front windscreen onwards.

THE problem with that BA is the lack of kick in the window line, Hiller got it right with the AU...
