Best musclecars?

[sharkythesharkdogg]

Do they have to be american? :<

I accept your foreign muscle car challenge. Merriam-Webster says it's "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports coupes with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving", but c'mon. It can be other countries.

So, we'll just go with the rest of the accepted classification. Muscle cars are usually V8, rear wheel drive, and usually (not always) made from an existing platform. The Dodge Viper is a muscle car, but it's a V10, and the chassis did not exist before Dodge made the Viper. I'll pick some from some different areas.

From the UK

Jensen Interceptor



Sunbeam Tiger



Triumph TR8



There's plenty of others.

Germany

Mercedes 280 AMG



BMW M5



Australia

Ford Falcon



Holden Monaro



South Africa

Ford Sierra XR8



Chevrolet Firenza V8



I'll do more when I have more time. (If anyone cares.)

Back off

I have a lovely chevy cruze and it goes zoom zoom and gets amazing gas mileage and has awesome AC. Way better than my old VW Jetta.

I don't think my answer to this question will ever change

My mother had one of these, and sold it to a guy she knows who loves fixing up old cars. It was maroon with a soft top....I miss that car.

In all honesty, my muscle car is my favorite, a 1986 Monte Carlo. The guy I bought it off of didn't take care of it so the motor blew in a few weeks. Thankfully it wasn't hard to find a good 350 to put in it, and once I have some spare money I'm going to fix her up nice

Too bad that nicely coloured dash is contained within a Chevy which it must always be assumed is trying to kill you at all times.

I like to live dangerously.

(SPOILER)And by dangerous I mean "look at the price of premium gas my wallet is crying".

I think we should keep this to American musclecars lest further shame be cast upon their international brethren.

Seriously. What are those abominations? xD

I know you're joking, but I'd gladly take a Ford or a Dodge at the moment over anything from a company that knowingly sold defective cars which killed dozens of people at a minimum.

I didn't know that we were talking about currently made vehicles, if that was the case then yes I'd take a Ford over a GM product. Still wont ever see my a Chrysler product however. But then again, you'll never see me in a brand new vehicle. I refuse to buy anything newer than 1999. Pre 90's GM made the best truck. now their 350's are junk.
