In 1968 the 429 V8 was replaced by the new 472 cubic inch V8 with a gross 375 horsepower and 525 pound feet of torque. Despite the larger and more powerful engine, acceleration did not improve because of the reduction in the final drive ratio from 3.21 to 3.07. The concealed headlamps of the front drive coupe were used for two years only, 1967 and 1968, and the 1968 car shared the E body with the Riviera and Toronado.
