There's been a real awakening in USA for a taste of aussie muscle cars of the 70's, 80's .

Led by the fabulous Mad Max Inteceptor , "god damn - what is that car? what's under the hood?" - pure aussie muscle !

For example the original Monaro fast back, and Torana SLR5000 and others. There's a show on Foxtel, can't recall its name at the moment - its a reality tv show of a car auction site in US and the cognescenti in America and the world for that matter are cottoning onto the cars we grew up with and paying big bucks for collectors cars...

The local Ford and Holden have a big tradition of this and I love Aussie Muscle cars but for me the whole package of the 370z is a huge improvement on power, handling, styling, finesse, I just loooove it and can't get enough drive time in. ha ha!
