BigTurbo74 11-06-2003 11:48 PM

Srce 11-07-2003 12:29 AM

We all know that the 67 GTO is the baddest Muscle Car ever, so stop argueing.

427 cubic inches, 600HP in competition form and a 2200Lb with beautiful independant suspension car= slow, how? Lack of driver skill may explain it. The CSX 4000s are being built now in South Africa. The originals were built somewhere in Nevada back in the 1960s

UniqueTII 11-07-2003 03:25 PM

One of my favorites:

Chevelle SS 454

A honda would beat it on a roadcourse! You know why? TIRE TECHNOLOGY...and 50's chassis tech... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/dry.png

Pontiac "swiss cheese" Catalina



Chrysler Hemi Belvedere



best muscle cars made in my opinion.





The 427 Cobra had the record for the fastest ever 1-100-0 time

Put some modern tires on a Cobra and it will beat pretty much anything

around. Period.

GarageBoy 11-07-2003 07:41 PM

The Aluminum Catalina, the Hemi Dart, the ZL1 Camaro and the Boss 429 Mustang are my favorite striaght line cars

RX7Aggie 11-07-2003 08:06 PM

want american muscle?



get this (read Ford GT):

Rotarydragon 11-07-2003 08:10 PM

Yeahhh RX-7's may take it on a roadcourse and what not but even as fast as Ed's old car was there's nothing quite like the neck snapping torque a big V8 puts out.



As for me that Hemi 'Cuda I drove was SCARY. VERY scary. You could hear the frame trying to twist itself.



I've ridden in a viper, simillar effect.
