I have to admit to being one of those “classic” muscle car owners that really didn’t appreciate late model muscle, until that is…..I purchased my 2008 SRT Challenger!
While I have not had any “bad” reactions to my modern muscle car, I can see were there are some that may still have the feeling that “you just brought your muscle car off the showroom, whereas I (the classic muscle car owner) spent years and sweat to bring back a muscle car from the real muscle car years”. I still go for the classic muscle cars are major car shows, but today I am not so fast to pass up the rows of modern muscle. Each has its place at the car show. By the way, most car show I have attended, already have various classes strictly for late model muscle cars. (I won my class (Modern Hemi) the first time out...)
