    Not sure if that is accurate...

    Most muscle cars have a horrible Power to weight ratio because they were so heavy. Most modern sports cars power to weight ratio far better than anything made during the golden era of muscle cars because of use of aluminum and carbon fibre construction in addition to turbo charging and fuel injection resulting in engines that were far more efficient and requiring smaller displacements to create the same amount of power.

    Think it has more to do with body style and the fact that they were designed for performance.

      Yeah, that's why they're called muscle cars. Hold up, it's like a 3 second google.

      Couldn't find anything. It was just a broad definition. I know I've read stats before though.

      Yeah, that's why I bought a sportscar lol.

          "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving"

          wiki... It could be "like" a muscle car - but aston martin would never be described as one.

            Regardless, don't see many muscle cars worth taking pictures of down town. More of a suburban / rural thing.

            I have a picture of a GNX somewhere in my phone...

                  What an ugly piece of shit (just my opinion of course). Quite a few of these still around here in Germany.

                    I actually kind of like the 4000 for some reason. It's ugliness is part of its charm in my opinion. It's sort of an homage to the cookie cutter 90s

                      Third Generation M-G Midget (it won't let me type ** without censoring it...)

                      Seeing as this is a British Leyland car from the 60s, I imagine that this car spends most of its life with the hood up.

                        Absolutely, British Leyland
