Well, 1968, of course. I think you can guess why.

 

Without a doubt it would be a 66

 

We've had a '65, 2 '66's and 2 '69 coupes. My favorite of all of them is the '66. I like the classic lines of the original style, and I think they actually drive better than the bigger '69/later cars. The '66 has a few more conviences over the '65 (particularly the early '65's), and I like the side trim and grill better on the '66 vs. the '65.

So, my favorite coupe is the '66.

 

Well, for the same kind of reasons Laurie AND the others mentioned, a '66 of course!

LAURIE? She said '68! What does she know!?!?

 

I like 67 coupes

 

I love my 66. But since its getting restored, I have to drive my 93 coupe.

:lol: OK, wiseguy! I meant that Laurie said '68 because she HAS one, and I then included the rest of you because you mentioned all the high points of the '66!

(But then you already knew that, didn't you!?)

 

I like coupes as much as fastbacks. My favorite year is 1965. The 65-66 coupes have a great style. I would love to have another one but I would still like to get an early fastback.

My coupe

 

64-68 without a doubt.

 

Oh come on...76 coupes are the best!

I like my kid's 71 hardtop better than my 65 coupe. Both are neat to drive, but the 71 drives more like a car than my 65 "lumber truck!"

 

I like the '69. They look meaner with the broader quarter panels and of course the four headlight treatment. A '68 with fog lights would be second. An Acapulco Blue GT with white C-stripe would be nice.

 

for me it I would say the 68 coupe, but I really like all the coupes from 64.5 to 68. On the fastback I am going to say the 67-68. To me the early models look a little wierd in the back, while the 67-68 look smooth.

 

I like the 68 but I suggest we ask Dave Sanborn he is resident expert on coupes aroud this place

67-68 for coupes, 69-70 for fastbacks.

Personally, I think the 67-68 coupes have the best lines. Something about it just looks right, its balanced, its aggressive, its classic.

 

65 of course

Sorry fella - Dave Sanborn knows how to make tires from raw rubber! He doens't know, however, which year is best.

1966 is best, of course.

 

67
nice clean body with none of the side marker bs to ruin it
some of my best teen moments hapened in a 67
and a few bad ones too
gotta go with the deluxe interior and the gt package also

Another vote for 1966.

 

Favorites are as follows:
Coupe = '68
Fastback = '65
'Vert = '65
Overall = '69 Boss 302

 

My votes for 66 also.

 

What's not to love about a '66 coupe :laugh:

 

I like the 65 Coupes best. The grille and the chrome "air scoop" on the side looks a little better. The dash of the 66 is nicer though. If it's a GT, it doesn't really matter, as it will have the 5 dial gauge cluster and no side ornament anyway.

The 67 Coupe is also a favorite. The body lines look good, but the main advantage of the 67 is that it was refined in many ways over the earlier ones. Somehow, I like the 67 better than the 68. Probably the side scoops and the lack of side markers, because otherwise there's not much difference. I like the 67 interior better too, especially the Deluxe version.

I don't care much about the 69-70 and 71-73 coupes. By then, the cars really got the racier musclecar styling, which suits the fastbacks fine, but the coupes much less. It depends a little on how it is equiped, but some of them look "half race car, half 6 cylinder secretary car", which is not a great combination IMHO.

 

First Mustang a new 66 coupe Jan-66 followed closely by 68. But my favs are verts. 65-68
