I'll admit that they were probably good cars back in the day but I honestly don't understand what people see in them.
They're not fast, not light, not economical, not functional, not practical, not elegant, etc.
It's like you tried to be good at everything but instead failed miserably at all of it.
I respect that it's part of the US car "culture" but they're just thousands and thousands of better cars in every single aspect from all around the world.

My guess is that people who like muscle cars are the same as those who think Harleys are fast or those who played a lot with hot wheels when they were young.

new is better in every way

>>16240556
True to be honest. But I guess they look cool now lol. Maybe they'll get better in the future?

>>16240556
except it's not unique to american cars by any stretch
CLASSIC cars are >not fast, not light, not economical, not functional, not practical, not elegant, etc.

and if you can't see the attractiveness in any classic car, no amount of arguing on the internet will change you

It's an ugly underpowered econobox tin can who's only redeeming quality is that you can make its rear wheels lose traction, and even then it barely has the ability to do that in stock form.

That is one triggered nigger.

Shut the fuck up kid. I bet you never driven one. My friend who owns a !mechanic shop has one. It goes 0-60 in 7 seconds. It handles god tier and its not ugly. If you want ugly look at your shitty muscle cars. My friend smoked a fucking 2015 mustang dude. Top speed 150mph. Fuck you

>>16240784
I drove an '85 GT-S for three years and I stand behind what I said, it was a pretty shit car. The only reason I drove it was because I got it for free from my brother.

>Back in the day
a muscle car was not a good car in any day, specially when they were popular
A muscle car was just a normal car that they shoved a 7L V8 in it, it didnt handle, it didnt turn, it didnt brake
Modern "muscle" cars are much more inline with sports cars than muscle, the only real muscle are the two hellcat

Bullshit. Go look up 0-60 times on any version of a 2015 Mustang. Here's a hint, not a single one of them takes 7 seconds to get to 60mph. I don't even like Mustangs, but you're screaming out of your ass like a mouthful of Mexican chili.

>>16240438

Old for looks, new for performance. Cars that weigh as much as an aircraft carrier than can get to 60mph in less than 5 seconds is pretty impressive.

>>16240438

The Challenger is the only one that looks good with the modernization and that's because it deviates very little from its origin. The rest of them sick compared to their classic iterations - especially the Corvette, Camaro, and GTO. The modern Charger chose in the picture was the worst of the three front fascias. The current and previous ones were better, but can't compare to the original.

The Mustang has been slowly morphing into the disgusting blob it is now for decades, so it doesn't matter. It's not a throwback, no matter how much everyone wants to say it is. It's the bastard child of a 1970 and a SN95, plain and simple. No where near as pretty as the original run.

The sense of acceleration is closely tied with sound. A 5 second muscle car will feel faster than a 3 second electric car.

early american muscle look more aggressive than modern cars ever could, simply because they didnt use all the tryhard optic bodykits.
I'm a total weaboo when it comes to cars, but i can admit that. American muscle looks good, because it looks raw, mechanical, no bullshit.

Volvo cant design a car

Mechanically, new cars are objectively better.
Aesthetically, old cars are objectively better.
This means the best car is an old car that's been restomodded. Maybe with period correct stylistic alterations.
