Muscle cars or Imports


Do you prefer the roar of a big-inch NA V8 or the mellow buzz of an import while taking corners?

I'm lookin for some opinions on your car choices. I'm a Both but muscle man. I respect the crowd that modifies their suspension to 1.05g skidpad on a lightweight 2900 lb car, but I prefer the tire melting power, rumble and roar of the engine, and the overall feel of a muscle car. Anyone else?

I love my muscle cars as much as the next guy. I have owned several ( 69 mach 1 4 speed,73 road runner,88 iroc 5.7). I have owned a few imports as well ( 79 supra,82 supra)I do however love the mitsubishi evo and the subaru wrx. They both are awesome cars that are not only quick but also handle. I like some imports and all muscle cars. I hate just what NYUCK said. Those base civics with a coffee can exhaust whos owners are starving for attention.

You cant beat the sound of a tight V8 with flowmasters, no question, but pull up next to me with your Mustang GT or Camero SS while I'm in my 3500lb 2.0L 4-bangin AWD ricer runnin my 50 trim Garrett turbo and your about to get spanked. If corners are involved... Good by, see ya later. Tubo cars dont sound like they are running a fart can either, but not as appealing as a V8, but the sound of a hard spooling turbo and the blow off valve is pretty friggin cool.

Turbos are an expensive snail that bump hp up to compete with stock NA muscle cars. They lower throttle response drastically and also create heat and break stuff. I prefer to hit the throttle from a stoplight and have 500+ ft lbs and 600+hp up to 8000rpm completely own the tires.
