I like that lean slick look of the 68 Cougar.  👀

The only Cougars I really liked were the 67 and 68. Cougar.

I have to agree the Cougar is sleek.  Sorry we never got one in 1/24.  Even though I have built a couple in 1/25.

I like both of these equally well. I would be proud to drive either one. Thanks John.

I never liked the 1967-68 Mustang as well as its predecessors or successors. The Cougar, on the other hand, is one of my favorites in its first iteration...it wins.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I love the look of the 67-68 Cougar more than the Mustang.  I had a '68 Cougar and wish I had kept it.

This one was so easy for me.  COUGAR!  I was gaga for them in '68 and still am today.  But after '68 they did nothing for me.

When one of my younger brothers got out of the Navy in 1974 he bought a ‘67 Cougar…he still owns it.

I guess I'm in the minority.  I picked the Mustang, only because it's a GT/CS.  If it was a standard Mustang coupe, I would've gone Cougar.

Cougar please.  '67 & '68 Cougar, '69 Mustang & Camaro RS SS, '70 Challenger T/A & AMX, '71 Cuda 440X6, '77 & '78 Trans Am. The Pony cars I like the style of, but I don't care to own any because I have never been comfortable in any.

Alway loved these Cougars for their classy interiors.
