corvette has never been a muscle car it's a sport car same with the gt40

muscle cars were cheap stripped down cars with alot of power (for the time)

cheap and stripped down?

my 79' z-28 has every option you can get on a camaro back then. nothing stripped down about it!

it was a bad lil drag car we repainted for a guy.

Early gen vettes, yes.Late gen vettes, no.

Again, it's just my opinion. You can define the term "muscle car" however you like. And you may notice that I posted a ZL1 Vette earlier in the thread...

but new dodge srt8s and such is muscle?

lol you make no sense.

I make perfect sense. Had these SRT8 vehicles been released in the 1960's, they'd be classified as muscle cars. But I knew I'd get shit for that post. That's why I said "B*tch, piss and moan if ya like".

I do think they're muscle. Never said I didn't.

Let me ask you something, man. What do you think about the mustang getting a new 5.0 in 2011? Would you consider that new 5.0 Mustang to be a modern muscle car?
