Muscle Cars: Cars With An Attitude

Eleanor is not a person but a muscle cars. This Gone in 60 Seconds 1967 Mustang is the complete embodiment of what muscle cars are all about. Muscle cars are no doubt fast cars with high horse power capability.

Muscle cars are different from sports cars we have today though some models are inspired by cars like the Ford Mustang. Though sports cars are fast cars like muscle autos, they surely won’t last a minute with the supreme torque that muscle autos have – which perhaps makes Eleanor the perfect Gone in 60 Seconds car.

The interiors of muscle cars are real statement of high performance, road warrior type of vehicle. The moment you turn it on, you can’t help but notice the fiery breathing of muscle car’s engine. There are a number of reconditioned muscle cars that can still be found nowadays. Although muscle autos are now rare species, there are a number of clubs that relive the greatness of muscle cars.

Old Generation of Muscle Cars

Chrysler has announced that they plan to be the next and GM has unveiled plans for a retro vehicle as well. Ford had initially done this retro thing via the Ford Thunderbird but that was not considered a “muscle car” back in the muscle car era. Ford was the first to bring a car back that actually looks like a past model in the Mustang. The new Mustangs resemble a pervious Mustang from the muscle car era.

Ford has done a decent job pricing their Mustang. Chrysler has the Viper and the Ram SRT-10 that also qualify in the performance market. The Corvette was just restyled and is even higher performing compared to the previous model. Clearly GM needs to price the new Camaro properly when and if they actually do produce it. For example, Ford did away with their very popular Taurus model and replaced it with the Ford 500.

GM is now coming out with cars that more resemble the Toyota models. I have some friends that are big into muscle cars and the new Mustang, Challenger, and Camaros have come up in some conversations.
