Good layout. Very smooth.

Works just fine as a “sporty” car like the old Z cars or a modern BMW 4 series. But muscle car it does not make.

Recedite, plebes!
Since this thread has gone in a totally different direction (not in a bad way) and "twisties" were mentioned...

Here's one Bad Ass rocket ship on my "wish list"!!! :teeth
The Peugeot 208 T16

In 2013 Sebastein Loeb set the Pikes Peak record of 8.13 minutes and it wasn't broken until 2020 with a VW IDR (electric prototype) at 7.57minutes.

The worst scenario I can imagine is that you stop off at the smog station, and are kidnapped and anally raped by a gang of Samoan little people, then sold off to Dubai for work as a ditch digger.

Former Supra owner. Muscle car is definitely not the category any of us ever thought we were in.

My Dart Slant Six was a pre 1965 model, so it wasn't even a Pony Car. I used to LOL when people tried to tell me it was a muscle car. I remember people tripped out because the door handles and window cranks were made of steel.

lol at muscle cars. my SO’s grandmother drove a 65 GTO well into her eighties (until the kids got frightened by her diminished driving ability and took away her keys, claiming they were misplaced).

WRT smog - one of our vehicles has an aftermarket exhaust. passes smog but not the mechanical inspection. fortunately, the label on the exhaust that says ‘for off-road use only’ is written in italian. none of the star certified stations we’ve ever taken it to has bothered to translate it lol.

Ahh man, memories of the GTO and the SS 396 Chevelle in the sixties. Great cars. Drove the 396 to Texas from UCSB. That thing was fast. Fuck, just call me Gramps.

My grandfather had a 60's SS Impala. It was one of the cars I learned to drive on. He didn't know what was special about it. He just thought it was too loud!
