Live out your NASCAR dreams with this race car driven by none other than Jeff Gordon.
While badged as an Impala, and borrowing some styling elements from thesedan's then-current look, the Cup Series car has a bespoke tube-frame chassis and rear-wheel drive instead of the Impala's front-wheel-drive layout. A carbureted 5.8-liter pushrod V-8 generates an estimated 850 hp and 490 lb-ft of torque, and is coupled to a 4-speed manual transmission., but also a 200-mph top speed. And this car was designed to run at that speed continuously on a NASCAR oval.
Gordon drove Chassis 678 in three races, starting with the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where he qualified eighth and finished second. The Impala was also raced in the Pure Michigan 400 at Michigan International Speedway, where Gordon qualified ninth and finished sixth. The car's final race, the Geico 400 at Chicagoland Speedway, was also its worst finish. Gordon qualified 23rd and finished 24th.The car was subsequently sold by Hendrick Motorsports into private ownership.
