I agree but depending on the car. Mercedes, porsche, Audi, BMW, Subaru wrx, nissan 370z,GTR, out rank the modern muscles. But civics are no go for me. I like civics off the lot but not what people do to them.....

I would be curious of the general age in this poll. Reason being is most of the ones saying import are more then likely not of age to have been raised around the american muscle. Lets also face it.. That until recently with the New offerings from The Big 3 in the USA Muscle didnt really exist in the 80 thru early 2000. Ive spent the last 28 years in the world of automotive repiar. Im alsi a big muscle car project guy as one of my other loves and I love drag racing. The days of the real deal american steel have been long gone. I must admit im glad to see the big 3 get back into something that has been gone for way to long.........
And yes if you wanted to know Im an original American muscle guy. Ive owned Lots of various well built rides. My first car was a 63 impala SS with the 409 big block, 4 speed and dual 4bll carbs from the factory. Ive had Corvettes(my last one was a 68 stingray L88 427 tri power car) Ive had GTO's from the 60's, My last project car was a 65 olds 442 with a modified bigblock Olds. My last drag car was a 70 chevy nova with destroked small block and lots of laughing gas. One of the FEW real deal awesome cars I did own out of the 80's was my 87 grand national. Currently im working on a turbo charged Trailblazer and a 77 pontiac TA. Yes a black and gold car.
Always lots of fun. BTW did anyone see what manufacture won the Indy??? hint hint.. It wasnt an import.

It was a bad ride. I did the upgrade kit on it. Bigger turbo, Different cam, heads, exhaust, intake, bigger fuel injectors, fuel pump. Best quarter time was in the high 10's low 11's. Still street driveable. What a fun car it was. And always looks best in black.
