RE: Why do people buy muscle cars automatic?
Oh you know it. Have to have that manual.
Ok, that is a serious heavy clutch if you are breaking the seat back, or poorly designed seats, take your pick.
Autos definitely sound different when you are driving them exhaust wise. You hear it pretty much like in the car, it revs up to a certain RPM and then you get a silght drop in the sound that just doesn't sound right. You expect something that just doesn't show up, you know the normal sound in the manual. Very odd.
I really hope the Challenger will sound better. I figured that the 5.7 and/or the 6.1 in the Charger would have a nice sound to it. When I rolled down the windows to listen to one I was highly disappointed. The thing sounded like a Cadillac at take off. Where is the power sound? If they were going to make this thing a total family car, why bother with the SRT and why bother with the 5.7 Hemi? If you are going to put muscle behind it then at least give it a hint of power in the exhaust note.
