A Viper might be nice.
Hybrids! lol j/k.
I hope the Challenger makes it into production. There are lots of cool ones out now, it's a great time to be a car enthusiast.
It even has on-board telemetry built right into the dashboard displaying 0-60, 1/4 mile elapsed time and speed, and maximum speed in each gear, so you could play Mr. Road Tester lol!
I'm not really a fan of the new generation of cars. If I were to buy a car, it would be n older one, 70's model most likely.
Woah...that Challenger is sweet. I hope they leave it like that if it goes into production. I hate all these over designed muscle car remakes that make them look like something a 9 year old would drool over.
which retard put a merc on the list!? out of all the worlds car producing countries the us ranks somewhere near the bottom. european and jap manufacturers have got it sussed. id like to see a yank company make a 2.0l enginge with 250bhp. none of this homo 6.0l shite.
The '06 Corvette Z06.
IMO, Dodge really butchered the Charger by giving it 4 doors. They'd have better sales had they made it a 2 door.

I second that. The Ferrari 360 for example, had a V8 3.6 litre engine and puts out 430 HP. The Ford Mustang SVT Cobra, the American answer to the 360, has a V8 5.4 litre and puts out only 385 HP. That's alot but it's not exactly energy efficient. With that being said, some American cars are badass as well.
I just added some kick ass cars to this list. Some are kick-ass from a horsepower aspect, and others are kick-ass from a design/style aspect.

^ There's all different kinds of concepts/designs for the 5th generation Camaro's. Hopefully GM also designs a 5th generation of Firebirds.
ALL TRASH
I love all these high-performance American cars and would buy one in a heartbeat if I could afford one, but the thing is most people just don't care for super-fast cars. That's one reason why the American auto industry is doing so poorly.
Voted : don't like new cars
i like classic american vehicles with their beautiful blend of curves and chiseled lines. i like a car that can be identified by looking at the back window.most cars made after the 80's are very plain-looking.
i also hate the slow evolution in mileage, power, and reliability. my dad took a '57 willys jeep pick-up and put a 3.9 cummins motor and nv4500 5spd inside. it puts 210hp/450lb-ft to the rear wheels, runs mid 14s in the quarter, averaged 30mpg (putting many modern economy trucks/suv's to shame), and reliably provided 200k miles of service before being sold off. the performance of the driveline wasn't all that impressed, though. the suspension did better ontrails than a rubicon and the truck had superior ride quality to most modern suv's (achived with solid axles!).
ever since i started helping my dad and others build cars, i started to be unable to hold interest in a vehicle made from a factory today. my favorite ride can't be bought from a dealership.
