Nice work Joe…ever think about working for GM? IMHO design still doesn’t capture the essence of a muscle car. I think what GM & Ford are missing is the character. Hard lines out of soft curves… The perception of muscle.. Impossible to describe but immediately recognizable when one see it.
Some examples (MO); Mopar is getting it right or at least closer to right. The Solstice has “it” - the new GTO doesn’t. Never did. And the Solstice isn’t positioned as a “muscle car”. The Viper has “it” – even if you took the V10 away – just the way the car looks, the way it stands. The new Mustang almost has “it”, the GT40 (or what ever Ford calls it) had an over abundance of “it”. The new Camaro doesn’t have “it”. No depth of character. Looks like a slapped together Chevy answer to Ford’s popular Mustang. (hey sound familiar…at least GM got it right nearly 40 years ago) I’m afraid GM is missing the boat.
