I love American muscle, had Camaros worked for a guy while I was in high school who restored mid and late 60's Corvettes. The 67 Corvette with a 427 was outrageous, by far my favorite American muscle car, that car was as much of a hand full as a turbo but with less control. E- ticket ride
I really loved the Olds 442 styling and power but these cars were only great in a strait line, they just could not apply power to the road like many of the European cars Porsche's in particular. The old muscle cars were pigs in the turns, heavy and awkward I still love them, and would take a Olds Indy pace car convertible in a nano second. It would be hard to pay $50 +K for a restored one now. It's no drivers car even with a modern suspension.
The newer American cars are better handling they just don't trip my trigger.
They are just more affordable, always will be.
Nothing beats a 911 for track or mountain roads. It's just going to come at a higher price.
I have let muscle car guys drive my 930 the two words that always follow are, the control & power is unbelievable. Yea the cars 23 years old.
A GT3 RS has got to be pretty dreamy! I will most likely never know!
