Dinotmite,
I agree a 100% with you! I feel exaclty the same way. What's the point of owning a sports car that doesn't act like a sports car? It's for the same reason people buy the biggest SUV's they can find, for looks. Look at me! I am a better human being because I have a Mustang/Camaro look alike!
Most people couldn't care less about true performance and that's why the Muscle car is in trouble.
To me performance has nothing to do with cup holders and luggage capacity. It's how fast the thing goes and how easy it is to modify it to go faster.
I like the Ford/Chevy competition but my favorite races are still against yuppy cars. Boxters, Z3's, M3's and 740's. Those are a lot of fun!
