Teaming up with Galpin Auto Sports (The Pimp My Ride guys), the US Air Force has produced these spectacular not-for-sale show cars designed to drum up interest in joining the military. Still, the Vapor and Ford Mustang "X-1" are something else. The X-1 has niceties such as a driver's ejection seat, flight stick, and 500-horsepower.
