Speaking of coupes - with the windshield pillars missing, that instantly reminded me of the Torero - one of my favorite Hot-Wheels cars of all time! Mine was blue with white interior just like this one.
And - speaking of drag racing electric cars - I drained my pocket money to pay $12 for one of these Hot-Wheels Sizzlers out of a huge track set that had been returned to the store for some defect and wasn't for sale.
The guy working there sold it to me under the counter. It was way ahead of it's time. It recharged through a small port just ahead of the left rear wheel and it was bad-ass! When we got tired of drag racing them, we'd turn them loose on a greased table top and watch them do crazy donuts.
Who sez electric cars can't be fun?
