High Performance (Series 20) info | April 25 content update

That was actually quite fascinating to watch.

Nice comparison.

I know what I defined as a TRUE muscle car. What I canā€™t understand is why someone would call a modern Challenger a muscle car (Yes it is a ā€œmodern eraā€ muscle car) and exclude the modern era Camaro and Mustang from the same classification. Thereā€™s just nothing you can say to make sense so donā€™t even bother because it will be just babble rabble rubbish to me. Just doesnā€™t make sense.

Modern era Muscle Cars (without question)

Dodge Challenger
Chevrolet Camaro
Ford Mustang

Questionable entry

Dodge Charger
Chevy and Ford as far as I can say have no cars which fall into the questionable entry category.

Challenger charger are muscle car because of its intended missionā€¦to be fast everyday cars

Mustang and Camaros are sports carsā€¦comprimised everyday functionality in the name of speedā€¦both in a straight line and around a bend.

Ats/cts/ct4/5 v sports sedansā€¦aka super saloons

Corvette sports car through track toy dependent on variation.

/thread

ā€œJust because you want it to be a muscle car doesnt make it oneā€


^^^Musclecar = big V8 + focus on straightline speed + everyday usability

Mustang and Camaro, are not sports cars by any definition of the vehicle.

As you so eloquently stated: and I refer to YOUR quote, ā€œSdotjeezy says, Just because you want it to be a muscle car doesnā€™t make it oneā€. Therefore, just because you ā€œSDotjeezyā€ want it to be a sports cart doesnā€™t make it one.

You canā€™t go on and just make up your own classifications of cars the way you want them to be. Follow the rules that have been made since the creation of the automobile.

And a track toy isnā€™t really a vehicle classification. The Corvette, all generations, is a true sports car. Whether itā€™s used for a track toy or a family (of 2) car.

Caddyā€™s Sports sedans yeah you got that right but not super saloons. And the Charger is better suited into this classification than as a muscle car.

So just stop making up rules as you like to fit your own mold.

So there.

Itā€™s all psycobabble rap to me. Thank you Alan Parsons! Moving along now, nothing more to see here.

@McFlufferten got to the point, even though Iā€™m a true Mopar fan, that I couldnā€™t take anymore of mr blahblahā€™s rhetoric and had to speak up. Now Iā€™ll probably be the next on the banned wagon. But thatā€™s ok, so many good posters have already been axed by mad max that this forum is on itā€™s death roll anyway. If I get banned it wonā€™t much matter Iā€™ve pretty much had it with the power hungry around here anyway canā€™t enjoy the place anymore. If I get banned I probably wonā€™t even be around to know. If you can hang out here, have fun, but not too much. They kinda frown on having fun in the forums. It can get you banned!

Putting the 935 to good use.

Iā€™m 51 and I agree 100%. A Pontiac GTO is a muscle car. A four door Pontiac LeMans is notā€¦

The Huracan STO is also very good, but the 935 feels special in its own way. S1 feels like it got a nice boost with these two.

You would thinkā€¦but a burnt up bridge or a back stabbing side deal from a competitor could stop that from happening. Hopefully weā€™ll see them soon but I have my doubts.
