The first generation Mustang debuted in 1964. It cost $2,368. Adjusted for inflation, that's the equivalent of $18,105.
Depending on engine option, it made 240 HP, and could tune up much higher.
In 1969, the price of a new V8 Dodge Charger was $3,126. There was a slightly cheaper V6, and a more expensive Magnum option so we're doing the V8. Adjusted for inflation this is $20,188. This charger put out 330 HP.
The higher end price for the Camaro in 1969 was $2,850. This equates to $18,406 today. Its power was comparable to the Mustang.
The current Mustang, at the lower end, produces 300HP. Bare-bones, the very cheapest it can be had for is $25,185.
The price of a new Challenger, cheapest it can be bought for is $27,995. That's with a 292 HP V6, at which point it's dubious to call it a Muscle car.
The new Camaro? $26,305 for a turbo 4-banger bringing 275 HP.
This is why Sports Cars are no longer for the young. A negligible margin of difference in performance, and a fucking Valley of difference in price. And when I write "Bare Bones" I mean it. These price-points are for the absolute chinciest configurations the manufacturers will allow, configurations you won't find at any but the most esoteric of dealers, and unless you just want a pretty commuterbox, you're gonna wind up paying between thirty-five to fifty grand. What the fuck happened?

those cars were even more bare bones though
>>
>>16499697
Everything is more expensive, even accounted for inflation. Anyways, none of those cars acutally made 240 or 330hp - that was gross horsepower. Performance has massively increase, not just in power. You try building a 707hp Hellcat in 1969, you'd need well over 100.000 dollars before inflation to pull that one off, nevermind actually running it on the street.
Performance isn't just horsepower, and has drastically improved. Ponycars like the Mustang and Camaro nowadays can keep up with sportscars like the M3, where old muscle cars couldn't. Also, compare the equipment of a 1964 Mustang to a modern one, and then claim it's barebones.

>>16499727
This
Also, the amount of safety standard equipment in modern cars that just did not exist back then. Nowaday Mucle cars can turn corners as well, and can also save your life if something goes wrong. And good luck having features like navigation and, basically a built-in PC in your car at that time

Once upon a time there lived an American biker named Rick. One morning, he woke up, and decided to travel the world.
For the next few weeks, Rick spent his days riding to and through some of the most popular European cities.
After seeing all Europe had to offer, he moved on to explore the rest of the world.
He was having the time of his life until he reached a small town in China. Unexpectedly, and out of nowhere, a beautiful Chinese maiden crossed his path, causing him to fly off and crash his motorcycle. Apologizing, the maiden offered Rick to pay for the repairs and a place to stay while they fixed his bike. "My name is Yu! It's an honor to meet you!"
It turned out she was the daughter of a rich magistrate, so Rick spent the night in a small palace in the center of town. However, due to the scarcity of motorcycle parts, Rick had to spend several days in the palace, in the presence of Yu. Over the next few days, she took a liking to him and his strange American ways. As expected, Rick took a liking to her, too.
The two quickly became inseparable, but Yu's father did not approve, for Rick was an outsider. By the time the motorcycle was finally up and running, Rick had fallen madly in love with Yu and refused to leave. The Magistrate had Rick banished from the town. He warned him if he ever came back, he would have him beheaded.
Rick was devastated, he had no motivation to continue on the rest of his journey. It seemed as though there was nothing left for him in the world, if he didn't have his beloved Chinese maiden. So he did the only thing any other sane guy would do.... Rick rolled back into town screaming, I'm never gonna give Yu up. Brought to you by /dbt/

It's more computer than car imo, especially with the way they tier ownership with software packages and upgrades.
It makes it pretty undesirable from my perspective, but I can see why normies want one.

I really want a katana shift knob for teh lolz, but I don't want one that will fall off if I use it daily.
Some of them look like they are threaded and others have a bunch of on the end.
What should I look out for when buying a shift knob?

Just weld it on, then it will never come off while you are grinding on it.

You'll be fine with either. The threaded knobs are more secure and generally have better build quality.
I have the same katana as your pic related in my car since my shifter rod is knurled rather than threaded. It's okay, but I had to grind down the set screws so that they sit flush.

Does anyone else drive around by themselves at night while listening to some synthwave music or something? The warm summer nights we've got in Australia right now, and the way the sun takes its sweet time to set over the course of 2-3 hours make it extra comfy.
Sort of like Drive, but not as autistic.

I do this during the winter when it's a pleasant 40F outside. The cool breeze and the even cooler music make for a good feel when blazing through long curves on the wide-open country roads.

Why do people still think that Asians can't drive? Maybe its just trolls and Detroitfags who can't get over the collapse of the American car industry in the 70's, leading to the onslaught of Japanese built cars. I bet Nissan regrets not selling the Skyline GTR R32 (pictured) in the US, just so as to shut up those "Asians can't drive" troglodytes.
Speaking of the R32, was it ever sold in Canada? I'm guessing maybe not, either it failed emissions tests there (as with the US) or Nissan was afraid that it would be illegally imported into the US.

note how almost all good cars from Asia come from Japan. the Japanese are outliers, not a good example.
