i wonder just how thorough the restorations were on those classics. simple things like modern bushings will make a noticeable difference on handling. getting down to brass tacks, theres nothing more satisfying, or sexier than a classic car. i think these new cars just lack the soul that the corn fed originals do. maybe its the absence of american blood and sweat.
@DodgeChallenger426 Completely relevant, it proves yet again that 1) American cars go fast in a straight line but can't corner for shit and 2) American drivers are some of the worse on the road.
@DodgeChallenger426 Yep we know nothing about building sports cars or how to drive them especially considering the zr1 and viper acr hold two of the quickest times around the ring both of which were driven by American test drivers but your right we Americans know nothing about sports cars you arrogant ass
The only problem with both old and new versions is that they are all too big! Especially the new Challengers, feels like i'm driving in a Dodge Ram lol
@brhaacke yea... well my modded supercharged v6 looks better then the v8 vertion, is quicker then the v8, more fuel efficent, cheaper to insure. and quieter.... because that low deep hum is actually very anoyying....after 20minutes. and bought for the same price as the v8 vertion. but i guess im a poser right? thats what your gonna argue when i beat your uglyer lesser of a car....because i saw the real value in the V6, and you though with your dick....
@CemetaryGatesML Wow, don't get mad man. Have ou thought what happens if you supercharge the v8, it will pbviously smoke your supercharged v6. With a muscle car you need a v8 man, if no go with an import they are quicker as v6 models.
The older cars have a style that cant be replicated or matched. You can always throw in a modern engine and upgrade the suspension components of the older cars. And you still have that style. The newer cars are heavier and have no style compared to the older cars. I dare say the older cars are far superior because they are much lighter and can be extensively upgraded to easily outmatch the newer counterparts.
I think they were the good old days because the old cars were alot more affordable to the average 20 something back then. So people enjoyed the power and style when they were young, thus the great memories. These new cars are priced for late 30-40 somethings with deeper pockets who have a little more money to blow. They are nicer cars, but the memories can't compare to when you were in your teens/20's. I think that is the major difference between the generations.
I have a 2010 SS LS3 and this one chick showed me her dad's 69 Camaro. Looked sweet but I prefer my car better. In fact, I prefer all this new muscle cars over the classics. To me they look way better and they totally out perform them. And if that wasn't enough, the newer engines have better gas mileage. That's my preference and opinion to all those rabid classic crusaders.
The old cars don't stand a chance but if it weren't for them we wouldn't have the awesome cars that we have today. A lot of old timers need to see this article and realize how fast todays cars are
@brhaacke Yeah, honestly they shouldn't have made a V6 option. Of course, the car companies sell out to those that just like the style instead of the car's whole purpose and legacy.
To qoute the great Jeremy Clarkson while he talks about american made cars: ''They were rubbish then, they were built by idiots, and they are rubbish now'' enough said i think...
@ColdplayBest1 are you serious? ha ha wow jeremy clarkson has a dick up his ass, he is by far the biggest hypocrite, he'll say shit about any car in the world whether it be french, german, sweedish, or american he will say something that's total bullshit about the car. Old american cars are not "rubbish" they are beautiful pieces of art. The man knows absolutely nothing of cars, he can only bitch about them. HE DOESNT EVEN KNOW HOW TO WORK ON THEM!! and you're trusting judgement from him?haha ok
@boostnsrt true that, but he sold both a while back. the GT was fucked up by UK-based Ford dealers to try and make it legal on European roads (making it extremely unreliable) and the Escort was sold because he got an insurance quote for 22.000 pounds ($34.210) the car itself cost 38380 pounds ($58.142).
It's cuz they cost so much. You g guys can't afford a 50k car. The new 392 cost 50k. Convertible gt500 53+. And ss camaro list for 30ish but good luck finding one that cheap.
Around here it's all old ladies in camaros. There's only a few new mustangs in town but there are rich old ladies in camaros everywhere. There's an eighty year old woman driving a challenger rt also. I drive a 2011 gt mustang which is kinda rare in my town.
they looks great but cars as performance cars are bull. handling is the worst and there is no performance car without handling. and that v8 is unnecessary. build quality is like in any american car- bull.
if going whits reason never buy it but if you go by beauty and price its no. 1 in usa. in eu we cant even drive it- to low safety and build standards, only oldtimers
Whats really fun is out racing both Ricers and Mustang GT boys and girls in my '94 Olds 98. 3.8L supercharged! Man do they get upset when that big 4dr sedan pulls ahead and stays ahead...
@GMdrivingMOPARguy the 1970 challenger 318 with a a833 weighs 3900 i know cuz i scraped a 73 challenger with the 318 833 4 speed,and the new base model challenger weighs 3640 the srt8 probably weighs 4100 but i am 100% positive the 70 hemi challenger with the cast iron 833 not aluminum weighs over 4,000,and they do make a 850 holley throttle body mine is a 850 holley commander they also make them up to a 2000 cfm,go to my profile and look at my website under performance you will see them
Time capsule expensive Muscle VS Plastic peace of shits...thats a good compareson allright..Imagine with the 1969 GT500 you all three of those new cars..
I'm not a fan of these old muscle cars. I my opinion they are tin boxes with incredible basic engines. That being said I do like the old Challenger :3
well and you got to remember the old ones are made out of steel they are heavy tanks the new ones are plastic and weigh as much as a feather,now if you had a 426 hemi get 2 throttle body adapter plates for the 2-4 intake and put 2 throttle bodies on it and made it fuel injected it would be a car from hell 0-60 would be 2 times faster than the new one,the old cars were built with big old cast iron blocks big fucking carbs and big cams not computer chips and plastic valve covers,weightless shit
@JoeysFunFarm You do know that all of the new cars in this video are heavier then the old ones right? Its all that computor crap in them. And i have never seen a carburated engine switched to the tbi injection make more power, they make worse
@GMdrivingMOPARguy i dont know about the ford or chevy but accually the base model 2011 challenger weighs 3640 and the 1970 challenger base model weighed 3850 or 3900 if equiped with a cast iron 833 4 speed...., tbi injection gives you way more horspower i got a 77 dodge w200 with a 440 all stock converted to tbi holley 850 throttle body making 350 horspower thats 100 more horse than stock using factory 4 barrel intake with adapter plate,
@JoeysFunFarm I dont know where you found those specs from but they are false. The new Challenger is 4100+ pounds and the 1970 is about 3500ish depending on what engine. And by 850 throttle body i assume you mean carburator because Holley dosen't make a TBI with an "850 throttle body." And on that adding 100 horses you had to do somting else to the engine like a cam and intake swap. No single bolt on adds that much (Barring Nitrous Oxide)
@GMdrivingMOPARguy and i have a 1990 dodge ram with a 360 police package with a 750 holley throttle body and spacer plate thats producing 300 horse the last year of the 345 swirl port police heads has a lockup a518 trans non computerized overdrive,..was ordered for west virginia state police but was never put into use just sat at the dealership till an older woman bought it for hauling horse trailers,
the only reason the old ones didnt win is because of the massive tourqe of the big blocks melting the tires wile the new ones got traction control and can barrely spin the tires from a dead stop,if you put that 440 in that light new challenger it would haul ass it has so much tourqe the rear end would rip right out the frame would snap in half, i garanttee if you hook up 10,000 pounds to them the big blocks they will pull it like nothing wile the new cars would kill trying to pull it.
@aaabbbeee what if a women can drive like a man? my husband doesnt think its a bad thing, not many chicks drive cervini mustangs! but i do!! and plus a v6 shouldnt be called a "muscle car"
I compare these new cars to music on CD, and the classics to my old vinyl records. While the CD is clean sounding and consistant, it doesn't quite have the "soul" the vinyl has. On paper the numbers show a clear winner, but nothing can compare to hearing those secondaries open up on a big block as you downshift and roll on the sauce. Whats better? who gives a shit, give me a v8, a stick shift and posi and I'll have a blast while you guys argue about it
why not run the top chevy camaro and top challenger? The new cars run were all top and the ford, but the chevy had alot stronger engines and mopar had the hemi. Also why not run better tires on the older ones, bias ply sucked and didnt hook at all, stoping time and drag times would also have been better on the older cars.
I reject your reality and substitue my own... old cars are the best. It is much easier to upgrade them from stock, unlike newer cars where you have to deal with things like, computers. Old cars look better too. They also should have done the 1970 Chevelle SS LS6, that would have given those new cars a run for their money.
Well lets face it. Modern technology makes newer pony/muscle cars better than their gran-daddies in the performance field. However, due to increasing safety standards styling takes a hit. They still all look good. What I do miss is the ability to work on your own vehicle, and the sound that older cars have. Everything now is fuel injected and smooth sounding. I love my 2009 Challenger RT, but what I would do for an old C-body, lol.
If this video is about Old VS New then i want to see some handling test, some drag racing, this video was just about the looks and some specs whats under the hood.
I hate to say it but......The new mustangs are being ruined by women. All I see are teenage girls buying v6s and it makes the GTs and Shelbys look bad. I already see the Camaro starting to have the same problem. Maybe it's just in LA......
They should take a step back and make the Mustang what it used to be; a performance car for the working man.
@aaabbbeee hate to tell you, but the mustang was originally a secretary's car. How are they being ruined by women? That argument has no weight. So what if women like em anyway? Plus thats also a terrible business strategy. The mustang is still a badass muscle car, and always will be..
@kestkr HAHAHAHA badass muscle car? nooo. it is sadly now a car for posers and chicks. i see 10 v6s for every gt. and like 30 v6s for every shelby i see. its sad. the camaro is also unfortunately becoming like that because of its looks. the only real muscle car left in terms of demographic, looks, etc is the challenger 392 srt8
@kestkr Maybe i'm just grumpy. Two of my female classmates got v6 premiums for their high school graduation presents and I couldn't help but feel a tad depressed.
@aaabbbeee thats not just a LA thing here in Texas the mustangs an camaros are being driven mostly by women an outta shape posers & geezers who wanna be hip lol ... an the Dodge Challengers are driven by men, as they should , i mean just looking at the car u can tell its more of a" DUDES CAR "
@kdog18ful Sont know what part of Texas your in, But Ive noticed in western texas more men driving mustangs and fords in general. i see different types of people driving mustangs. And the people driving challengers are the older guys like my dad. But he still has a 72 Nova and 78 trans am...and you cant look at a car and say oh a man should only drive that. But then I take it its more diverse over here. But hell, I feel more happy in Texas.
@aaabbbeee it's actually not that way in Europe. It's friggin expensive to own a Mustang, teenage girls drive Golfs or Priuses... I mean, you quite literary cannot afford driving to school or work with a Mustang through a city, because the gas price on average is about 2$ per litre, which is like 7,5$ per gallon!
@aaabbbeee Mustangs were made with women in mind. You got the story backwards. Men took a liking to them and made them what they are today. And there are plenty of women driving GT's around.
You guys should stop arguing about ford x chevy x chrysler,they're all awesome muscle cars and we are all muscle car lover,we should unite against those japanese rice-eating-hybrid-treehugger-shit or in the future we will have camaros and challengers running on batteries with no power at all
i'm latin ;) and i was talking about the "1.4 turboed" fever we got now,not only because of japanese small engines,americans also has that (see focus and cobalt),also,you said about track times,vette ZR1 holds the second best time in nurburging,viper ACR holds the best time in american top gear test track and hennessey venom 1000 GT (twin turbo ls9) holds the title of fastest street legal car in the world
I love how theres so many comments bashing japanese cars....at the end of the day it's all weight-power-ratio and thats whats going to bust ANY car on its ass. As long as you got the power to pull it and it looks nice (not rice), it has my respect . Also who gives a shit about 0-60 and 1/4 mile times, take that heavy ass shit around a turn or try to dip with it through traffic and see how fast you'd be breaking . Just enjoy the cars, no fighting over stupid shit
all the motor trend guys have voices tht are way too "matter-of-fact" sounding and they annunciate too much which makes th commentaries CRAP!! Top Gear pounds these vids into th ground. MotorTrend shuld jus stick wit their sights and sounds vids

..... WHY... do alot of u muscle car fanatic compare a car that has like only 160hp civic to a hmm 450+ mustang or camaro... and Ricer, is completely different from real JDM honda, nissan, ect... ricer, Only Looks, compare it to an EQUAL matched car like a GTR... which is probably faster and can take a corner with ease unlike majority of muscle cars, not all.

Whats better? who gives a shit, give me a v8, a stick shift and posi and I'll have a blast while you guys argue about it

why not run the top chevy camaro and top challenger? The new cars run were all top and the ford, but the chevy had alot stronger engines and mopar had the hemi. Also why not run better tires on the older ones, bias ply sucked and didnt hook at all, stoping time and drag times would also have been better on the older cars.

I reject your reality and substitue my own... old cars are the best. It is much easier to upgrade them from stock, unlike newer cars where you have to deal with things like, computers. Old cars look better too. They also should have done the 1970 Chevelle SS LS6, that would have given those new cars a run for their money.
KingPin1094 3 months ago
Well lets face it. Modern technology makes newer pony/muscle cars better than their gran-daddies in the performance field. However, due to increasing safety standards styling takes a hit. They still all look good. What I do miss is the ability to work on your own vehicle, and the sound that older cars have. Everything now is fuel injected and smooth sounding. I love my 2009 Challenger RT, but what I would do for an old C-body, lol.

I hate to say it but......The new mustangs are being ruined by women. All I see are teenage girls buying v6s and it makes the GTs and Shelbys look bad. I already see the Camaro starting to have the same problem. Maybe it's just in LA......
They should take a step back and make the Mustang what it used to be; a performance car for the working man.

@aaabbbeee hate to tell you, but the mustang was originally a secretary's car. How are they being ruined by women? That argument has no weight. So what if women like em anyway? Plus thats also a terrible business strategy. The mustang is still a badass muscle car, and always will be..

@kestkr HAHAHAHA badass muscle car? nooo. it is sadly now a car for posers and chicks. i see 10 v6s for every gt. and like 30 v6s for every shelby i see. its sad. the camaro is also unfortunately becoming like that because of its looks. the only real muscle car left in terms of demographic, looks, etc is the challenger 392 srt8

@kdog18ful Sont know what part of Texas your in, But Ive noticed in western texas more men driving mustangs and fords in general. i see different types of people driving mustangs. And the people driving challengers are the older guys like my dad. But he still has a 72 Nova and 78 trans am...and you cant look at a car and say oh a man should only drive that. But then I take it its more diverse over here. But hell, I feel more happy in Texas.

@aaabbbeee it's actually not that way in Europe. It's friggin expensive to own a Mustang, teenage girls drive Golfs or Priuses... I mean, you quite literary cannot afford driving to school or work with a Mustang through a city, because the gas price on average is about 2$ per litre, which is like 7,5$ per gallon!

Also who gives a shit about 0-60 and 1/4 mile times, take that heavy ass shit around a turn or try to dip with it through traffic and see how fast you'd be breaking . Just enjoy the cars, no fighting over stupid shit
