June 1967
What We Said: “We have never driven a car that attracted so much attention. People would stop dead in their tracks, drop their jaws, and stare open-mouthed. Even cops would react at first with astonishment, then do a double take, and—by the time they figured we must be doing something wrong—we were gone. . . . The overall stability of the car makes the driver feel completely safe at speeds upwards of 120 mph. . . . The Mk. III’s acceleration isn’t much better than that of a hot supercar, as its quarter-mile acceleration of 13.8 seconds at 105 mph indicates, but it keeps on pulling long after most supercars have quit.”
