The Year is 2011 and you are cruising

Yup work with me here on this..

Its 2011...You are out enjoying your new Camaro (whatever model it is)....You spot a new Challenger....you give each other a courteous nod...all the while thinking....I'm watching you mister.....you see a new Mustang....yeah...he's all yours...but you wave nicely anyway.....

You notice that for some reason you have a small group of late model American Muscle cruising together....Hmm...Camaro, Challenger, Mustang...and look there is even a Vette back there...and is that a Viper too? Cool....

Anyway....you all cruise into the local hang out and notice a collection of Import Cars....with their little neon lights, loud stereos blaring, 14 kagillion bottles of nitrous with the turbo 4 cylinders Galore....

You all park....together...not need to park over there....then slowly one by one folks start coming outside checking out the American Muscle Cars....and slowly the Import guys walk over..cautious...leery....I mean these are 400+hp Cars you buy from the factory with unrivaled matched heritage.

The import guys notice that folks are just ooing and aahing over these "Domestic cars"...They think...but I got a 2.3 liter twin over cam, vvti, twin turbo 30psi of boost, 200hp shot of nitrous, a 1000watt stereo, 20 inch wheels, lambo doors, LED lights out the wahzoo....what gives they think...

Then it dawns on one of them....What they are looking at is not just American Muscle...no sir...they are looking at what created the Car craze...the forefathers of cars....and they are back. Back with a Vengeance to show the import guys...We started it and we are here to let you know we aren't going away.....

So as the Import guys slowly walk over to one of the owners...the American Car owner puts out his hand to offer a hand shake....that says..."Hello...we are car enthusiast like yourself we just like different types of cars in this case we like the sounds of American cars...Wanna line them up?"

And so it begins again...the Domestic vs Import wars....

Folks...we are closer then we think....Chevy, Dodge, Ford all back in the mix and they want the world to know....we started this craze and we are here to stay....

Great Post! No replacement for displacement! In the imports case, its 3X the displacement!

yea I love this post, getting it straight that is domestic vs imports. No matter how much bickering we do, in the end it is us vs the imports.
Ill be snagging up a challenger before it is too late, but hopefully I am wrong.

Thanks guys....I am a car enthusiast like yourselves...I can find pretty much anything about any car that I like...seriously...

And right now the Camaro and Challenger have it all going on. Ford is waiting to release their new 5.0 motor which i suspect is going to be a damn good motor...regardless...

I love cars and I think we are going to see some loyalties switch lines...and thats a good thing...

It all depends what YOU like...and I personally hope its something from THIS continent.

I think it would be cool to hang out with my friends that have Camaro's, Challengers, Mustangs...all in it for fun and the fun ribbing etc...but when it gets down to it...we are on the same side.


Note: Doug hands Silverghost a towel.....lol
