American Muscle Car Poll

Stratos · 1st August 2004, 00:48

Ok.. an American Muscle car poll here.. Which of these would u choose??

For me.. Its no doubt but.. the Dodge Charger!
Ford it amazing 7 litre engine.. and that astonishing torque!!
Gr8 brutal looks.. and that amazing grille that opens to reveal the headlights!!
PS: I even love the Dodge Charger Daytona with that HUGE spoiler!

Ford Mustang for me. I spent my early teenage listening to Jeh Wadia's '69 Mustang. It was absolutely intoxicating.
And yes, I am the same idiot who missed an opportunity to get myself a Dodge Charger at a throw away price.

As a consolation, I have a Pontiac GTO, albeit a 1:18 scale model. I love it!

Hey Stratos, you did not cosider Viper??!!

shravan316 · 1st August 2004, 13:00

For me its the Dodge Charger. Love it.
Viper isn't exactly a muscle car.......its more of a sports car and besides its not from the same era. (Correct me if i'm wrong)

GTO · 1st August 2004, 18:50

The Mustang - Coz there is only one original muscle car.

And since you havent mentioned year and spec, it will be the Gt350 for me. White with blue racing stripes!

GTO

vinaypro · 1st August 2004, 22:33

ported_head · 2nd August 2004, 00:27

the dodge charger for me. must have been an awesome site to see a car 17 foot long and a big V8 menace the city streets.

Dippy · 2nd August 2004, 01:12

Stratos I don't know which period you're talking but a Viper is all time hit muscle car for me. Essentially the '97, '98 breed. V10 engine producing 450 hp at 5200 rpm and with a torque rating of 490 pound-feet at 3700 rpm. This according to me was the higest at that point in time amongst any American cars. And the look?? Well., One of the best looking car for me. Will post some shots if I can manage to find them from my archive.

Stratos,

A serious error - You left out the nemesis of the Mustang....Chevy Camaro!

GTO

Rudra Sen · 2nd August 2004, 01:37

Well Stratos, where is Pontiac Trans Am and where is Chevrolet Chevelle, popularly known as SS 454??
