I like old cars and have a big soft spot for American cars of the 60s up through the early 70s. I could see myself getting an American car from that period. After the last 4 cars that I've owned (2 Porsches and 2 miatas) for the past ~25 years, I suspect the driving experience of a completely stock old American car would be a disappointment. I would probably want to perform a few minor modifications (mostly brakes, suspension, wheels and tires)(no crazy 20" chrome wheels, but also not 14" wheels, maybe 15-17" and "retro", just something to enable better tire options). Possibly a crate motor or motor upgrade if needed.

A 70s American car is never going to perform like a Porsche, but I think you could give them decent levels of grip with a still comfortable ride and safe handling/stopping and what they excel at which is V-8 grunt and acceleration and old school character.
