DESCRIPTION
Toronado First Generations (66 & 67) are the most sought after. Motor Trend Car of the year in 1966. At time of writing the miles are 72,150.
Huge standard power from the 425-cubic-inch, 385 hp. Rocket V8. Turbo-Hydromatic transmission (rebuilt in 2013). The engine is set longitudinally under the expansive hood with front wheel drive with tight turning radius.
The styling of the first generation Toronado Coupe is unlike that of any other car, well ahead of its time. Aggressive. Fluid. Powerful. Muscular. Elegant. Unique. Styling that encourages the eye to sweep from one end to the other, then back again. The sleek fastback roof line had never been tried before on a luxury car, and certainly not on a car with proportions as impressive as the Toronado''''''''s. It commands attention wherever it goes, and deservedly so.
For a beast that weighs more than two tons, the Toronado pulls away from stoplights like nobodys business. And yes, it''''''''s quite possible to smoke the (front) tires if you stomp on it. She can cruise effortlessly at speeds in excess of 120 mph, drinking up the fuel. Surprisingly, torque steer is not an issue. Impressive traction helps make this a true driver''''''''s car, despite a significant front weight bias.
She has power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, 6-way power front seat, power tinted windows, door panel courtesy lights, strato front bench seat, and new tires.
Huge 2 door coupe, luxurious interior, in excellent condition.
