Favorite Muscle Car

Like it or not the fox body was a "muscle car" of it's time. The Camaro went through a similar stage. Both weren't attractive. Both had to potential to go like stink.

Sadly a lot of those late 60's and early 70's "muscle cars" weren't really very fast... yeah they had torgue and sound, but not much else.

A lot of the little import 4 bangers that aren't really even "sports" cars can run with them now.

The IROCs and Gta TransAms were fairly nice... I had both. Those fox body's were hideous until the late 80s early 90s.i always wanted 90 lx. Never liked the look of the gt's.

Yep....the Fox bodies that looked like Escorts...no thanks.

The 80's were just a bad decade for cars in general. There's a few exceptions, but damn. It's like they forgot all about nice lines and aesthetics. Wait, they did plenty of nice lines in the 80's. Maybe that was the problem.

I blame the oil embargo, Japan, Kajagoogoo, and pop rocks.

first new car I bought was an 88 Mustang GT....hot damn that thing could fly. So much power.

at the time I believe it and the Corvette were the only two cars with 17" wheels...as far as readily available cars. I burnt the stock tires off in the first month or so doing burnouts etc for my friends. Then I discovered that they were over $300 each to replace...and that was the end....or at least it minimized the number of burnouts I did after that!!!

6 Pages and no mention of the Hemi Cuda? By far my favorite

But if we're talking the modern era. I think the late 90's Dodge Viper GTS is probably one of if not the best looking car ever made.

If I had to get a new car I'd definitely try for one of those. They are just bad-ass

[Hawk]

thats fricken hot for sure!

I'd be tempted as well...and I'm probably not far off from shopping as my current ride is an 04.

I'm thinking that Charger or a Camaro being I just bought a truck not too long ago so I'd have the winter months covered.

I'm also considering another Acura TL as I love the one I have...but they are also coming out with a new RLX in 2014 I believe.

Also considering an Audi of some sort. So many choices!

Or double breasted shirts....or thin leather ties.

Ahhh....the 80's fashion. Gotta be the worst decade in history for that.
