I've never been a fan of American muscle cars. I remember years ago getting a short ride in a 'vette. I hated the interior and I'm sure the rumbly exhaust note appeals to many, but it doesn't appeal to me (strictly personal taste). Now I have sat in the current 'vette many times at auto shows and whatnot, and the interior has improved. However at that price point, if I wanted a track car, I'd buy a Mitsu Evo. If I wanted a great performing all-rounder, the BMW M3 is a no brainer. That leaves little room for the 'vette, which is no doubt a great vehicle.

I'll give pony cars one more chance in a month when we go to Florida. I've reserved a Mustang from Hertz, and although it's more than likely we'll get the oversized V6, I'll see how the solid rear axle on that works. (Yet another "dated" suspension system)
