What if a car was an RGT or a TGR? Would it be an awesome car too? Or does it have to be GT-R?

The bad: I've seen some unnecessary comments in this discussion.
The good: I appreciate everyone keeping their composure.
Please keep it civil. Attack ideas, not people. If you don't like a discussion, you don't have to participate in it. Do not post responses that are unnecessary or off-topic. I'm very surprised at how much babysitting I still need to do.

All the reconstituted muscle cars are very similar to the newer VW water cooled "Bug". They superficially resemble the original but have a completely different nature that totally confounds the idea that you are going to have anywhere near the same driving and owning experience. It's almost like believing that there really is something behind the false front of an old western town; pure fanatsy.

New muscle cars don't offer the same driving experience? And thats a bad thing?
My dad's 440ci Challenger turns like a rowboat and stops like a wet noodle on a waterslide. I'm glad the newer muscle cars don't share the same driving experience...
And until A&W's are the cool spot to hang out at again, and fuel is back at 30 cents/gal, I doubt we'll ever get the same owning experience again... |

The local A&W reopened this spring with carhops and all. As the wife and I drove by we marveled at the crowd there. Always good food and good root beer in a frosty mug. The made from scratch onion rings are particularly tasty. |

It was a very nice driving experience. | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
