Re: American Muscle vs. Japanese Speed
American Muscle without a second thought. I like a car that is fast in stock form. You shouldn't have to spend a ton of money and bolt on a ton of crap to get it to perform decently. That and a bolt on muffler that makes your car sound like a loudmouth lawnmower with a bad case of gas is NOT cool. I want the low, throaty growl of a V8. I want a car that can hustle off the line and sound like it's not even breaking a sweat doing it. It want tire smoke to come off the back wheels like a real man's car. Front wheel drive is for minivans and family sedans.
All this and by and large, Japanese cars are a snore in the styling department and the body mods usually don't help. Especially those gigantic wings that people put on the back of a front wheel drive car. Entirely pointless. Even in stock form, many true American Muscle cars are absolutely gorgeous.
