The Best Muscle Cars Ever Made.

Those of us old enough will remember the golden age of muscle cars, approximately 1965 to 1971, when those awesome machines started hitting the streets. The GTO, the SS396, the Shelby Mustangs, and several others, are forever burned into our brain. Maybe because we were young, maybe because of the factory advertising, or maybe because they were so much more awesome than the average cars on the street at the time. For a lot of reasons, they made a lasting impression.
I've owned several muscle cars from that era, and had many encounters with numerous examples of vintage muscle cars over the years. Those familiar with my book know what I'm talking about. In the last twenty years, I have had plenty of experience with modern muscle cars as well, having owned, and raced, some of the best models available.
I will tell you today, speaking with considerable authority on the subject, that the best muscle cars ever built, by far, are being built right now.  They have that rumbling idle, that throaty growl on acceleration, and will plaster you back in the seat better than ever on a full power run through the gears. And, as a bonus, they do so much more, so much better, than their old predecessors could have ever dreamed of.  If you've ever been a muscle car fan, take a ride over to your local dealership, and take a test drive.
