  • This review has better info than a lot of the modern reviews.

  • @deloreanman14 The 0-60 runs will also improve greatly as well. I raced a few modern cars with mine and beat them. Never got to race a real modern performance car, but alot of 80s/90s performance cars felt the sting of my little 304 V8 auto 73 AMX (headers, shift kit and upgraded valvetrain and air shocks). My 73 AMX handles like a dream, better then my 93 Z28 but the Camaro does get better MPGs.

  • Happy to say I can personaly atest to the praises he's giving the Javelin. My 73 Javelin/AMX is great car to drive. It was my daily driver in HS. I was the only kid to drive a classic car of any type to school. lots of fun. still have it 12 years later, but it needs a little work (its a northeast car).

  • Wow.. 330 HP and 430 FT/LB of Torque in 1971? thats crazy.

  • Poking fun at the Corvette's expense on this one. "Probably the most noticeable changes are the bubbled front fenders, slightly reminiscent of the Corvette. However this similarity end there. Because the Javelin, is a handler."

  • I will never be able to bring myself to love an ugly car. This car is ugly.

  • @Qnickel27 totally. Muslce cars were pulling powerslides way before the japs started doing it. Americaaaaa...FUCK YEAH!

  • SUCK on that Japan AMeriCa was drifting in1971!!!!

  • "STOP DRIVING LIKE AN A**HOLE" hahahahaha!

  • It's very interesting to get to know about the world of motoring in classic Europe, Asian, and America. They were all so different, and interesting in their own way. Now it's all the same.
