I have to be honest Mark, all it said on the side was "3.5litre". If it was the V8, it didn't say, sorry.

As far as I'm aware all the 3.5's were V8. I wish my friend would ask me to take one for a drive

Why did somebody have to start a coupe thread? Had two Hyundai coupes and two rover coupes - rover coupe still one of my all time fave cars

Sounds like it's time for another

One thing I noticed about driving the Coupe is when ever you drove around everyone would stop and look at it, I have a bright yellow car now and still don't get as many looks
