Im the brother.

Hey all Im the brother that was educating my little brother on the finer points of what a muscle car is. When Chevy came out with a camaro and then only offered in v6, that tells me the are not making a muscle car, they are making a modern rendition of a classic muscle car. This all started with him telling me about him wanting to buy one. Anyone see the list price on one of those. For the same money you can buy a restored one that is in the 9-10 sec. range and rattle windows for miles. Not to mention being the epitomy of the Muscle car kingdom. It would show cooth and affiction. But no, he had to have a new one cuz its new and so bought the yuppymaro. Im glad it gets 35 mpg and Im glad it has a sticker that says its a camaro and Im sure its an awesome daily driver. Just dont try to tell me its a muscle car. Now, a dodge viper, thaaats a muscle car. Half engine, half gas tank, and not much for creature comforts. I will say, a new camaro would be nicer to roll in than my old Crown vic (v-8)
