I know they probably thought this would be super cool and all, but I’m just utterly disgusted by it.

There are full-on transit vehicles that have a smaller footprint and can carry more than double the number of people.

    Muscle cars are slower going around a twisty race track than a standard sports cars, but are supposed to be good at going fast in a straight line, think of those desert interstate pictures where the highway stretches straight to the horizon. I don’t think there are many legal outlets for taking advantage of what muscle cars are supposed to do.

      I’ve done long trips in a couple of muscle cars, and they weren’t any better for road trips than midsize European cars from the same era.

      The only place I can think they had an advantage was a drag strip, and even then only with a bit of modification.
