Got this in recently...and NO..it's not mine but a customers who is a dealer up in Van. I did get to move it around to my warehouse though...paddles shifting on the wheel...I'm more of a Porsche guy (If I ever could afford one, I still end up with a truck instead)...but this was one wicked sounding and driving car...Maybe more of a chick car with the paddle shifters, but who knows...enjoy!!

-

I was reading a story in a car and driver mag, but a guy was on the autobond, in europe hauling my friend in the porshe gt 3, and he see's head lights comming so he punches it, and the head light are still comming closser, and the guy is like wow this guy is fast. A few seconds later, a 67 corvette passes it looks at him...waves, and boots by. The guy in the porshe was soooo suprized, he tried to catch up and couldn't. Thats a story for you muscle car lovers out there ;D

There is no comparison between a Muscle Car and a real Sports car.. any one of those Ferrari's or Porches would destroy any muscle car in the twisties, suspension and refinement is what makes a real sport's car.. Muscle cars and sports cars are both designed to do something different so why try and compare them ?
TR
by the way thanks for sharing those pics XGolfman !
-
Because sports cars look like toy cars. ;) hot wheels or something
-
corvet is still a sports car but can handle like a porche, and the M5 by BMW can too!(FAstest car made by them yet)
-
The M5 is a true sports car as is the Corvette.. the Vette of old was a different animal than the one produced today.. but if you watch the europian circuit racing the corvette and the Viper are both dominated by the smaller europian cars...
-
both are very sweet rides,as for the comparison of an old muscle car from the 60s to these beauties well I'm sure the vette would beat them in a straight line race with the right driver but when it comes to handling not even close,those bad boys would school that vette.
-
If you compare STOCK muscle cars with cars like the GT3 and Maranello, there is no chance that the stock muscle cars could keep up....and if you modify a GT3 to the extent that you modify a muscle car, the GT3 would kill it on all counts. No comparison performance wise...but I'd still take a mint "Boss" or a 66 camaro hardtop over any of the cars made today...just soooo nice. Those old cars are pure sexy.
-
put me on a dirt road, off road or hook something up behind me and my truck will smoke them all ;D ;D ;D
-
AYUP gotta love all that crazy horsepower :)
-
Hey, IF I ever had the money to buy any of the top end cars my all time favorite is the shelby cobra 427 s/c....or this..

the old Cuda's are sweet looking, all musle and no steering!
-
that red car, tooo pimped. I like sticking with a little old school, new school in a few things, like steering, chassis and suspenion, other then that keep er as origial as it can get. Not to mention slapping in a 454 or 572 big block.
For me id run with a 69 camaro, or a 66 chevy 2.
-
but its too PIMP, with the wheels, rims, lowerd. not my style, but i still can appriciate it

All the Biscaynne has that you can see is a nice set of wheels. When a person does suspension, in order to get an older car to handle well on the road, the car will sit at a lower stance. Other wise you are going to have a ton of body roll and tail slides. The Biscaynne is as old school as one can get if you built the car that you described CohoKid. :) Personally, I like it. Has a perfect stance and the wheels look right with the color of the car.
This is the car that I would love to have, very similar in traits!! ;D
