The pillars look 1975ish Chrysler but I don't know the tail lights.

Edit: 1978 Duster or Volare.

Crazy when a car this ugly is an improvement on the previous model

He probably enjoys it as much as the other guy enjoys the Corvette.

Honestly, that second one is pretty much exactly what I'd expect to see from a vehicle with the name "Matador". It's just missing a pair of bull horns on the hood.

At least he could have saved an AMX

In 1975 they offered both models! I had a 1975 Matador 2-door with the

bug eye headlights just out of high school. It was very clean but it was

a turd. Not to mention is was piss yellow with a black vinyl top.

However, Scaramanga's Matador was awesome! It could fly!

Posted up nice and early to get the premium spots at the cruise in

Yea, but look at it from another perspective. At some point in the near future he'll own one of maybe...six left in existence.

And it'll still be worth $4,500.
