Yes I must admit when I think of Muscle Car I don't think of a Plus 8, nice as they are. Cobra, Mustang, Corvette and some brits too, Astons, big Jensens, they are what spring to mind.


Absolutely. Proper 'Muscle' cars are American. They have nasty cheap plastic interiors, wallowy handling, and questionable aesthetics. They attempt to compensate by having engines so large and inefficient they need the entire petroleum output of a small refinery simply to get to the chip shop. smile
