What I'm upset about is the fact that they take iconic names and try to cash in on them. The Charger hasn't been a Charger since it was first released and through that era and the same goes for the Camaro. This is not a Camaro and should not carry the name. Neither should have any of the Mustangs that came after 69 and early 70s.
I agree with you, Axel. You're talking to a guy who's never had anything BUT wannabees. I bought a '79
"Cobra" new, an '84
"Shelby Charger" new and an '87
"Daytona Shelby" new. Do you think any of my cars earned ANY of those 5 names? Any chance I'll be seeing the '84 or the '87 "Shelbys" at Barrett-Jackson in 20 years?
Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed all of those cars and, for their time and circumstance, they were all pretty nice. (Well, except for the Mustang, don't get me started...) But they all bore classic monikers they didn't deserve. I'm looking forward to owning a car that lives up to its history!
