Maybe you've never driven a 9 or 10 second quarter mile muscle car. The Camry has more horsepower but the muscle car has brute torque. The Camry will embarrass the muscle car the first time it tries to take curves at speed.
Also, muscle cars are about what the driver can do and what the owner has done to the motor to make it fast. Modern cars are owned by checkbook mechanics.
