Muscle car questions from a foreigner

Vegitto-kun

What am I supposed to buy that I can buy with the money a muscle car comes at?

a BMW? yeah maybe a 120(which actually is a 1.8) or MAYBE a base 320.

audi if you want some proper power you are looking at stuff like the RS3 which is like 60K base.

mercedes if you want proper power you need to look at stuff like AMG.

european cars are stupidly expensive. BMW,Audi,Mercedes you need to go 70-80K to have something that is anywhere near the performance of muscle.

and sorry but I don't want a car that looks like every other model in the series, all BMW look the same, all audi look the same, almost all mercedes look the same.

renault is basically just the megane RS. citroen is ugly, peugeot are grandpa cars, italian cars are too expensive except alfa romeo but they are horrible in quality.

british is like aston martin and such. want a decently performing jaguar? prepare to pay over 100K

SEAT? lol no.

european cars are decent in quality, interior tend to be nice but performance wise they are a HUGE HUGE ripoff.

with the price of a base challenger SRT you cant even buy a proper optioned golf.

I know to americans european cars might seem exotic and special but over here we see infinite amounts of them and they just uck.

American muscle give stupid amounts of power with little money, they look great, they sound 50 billion times better than all those 2.0 liter turbo 4-cylinders. and over here we have NO muscle cars officially other than the camaro corvette and next year mustang.

I joined a test drive with a M3 last week. it was pretty boring ok it went quick but honestly it sounded like a boredom.

plus the backseats are horrible. hell I went to take a seat in the 520 BMW and even then the backseat were hard.

and no I don't want second hand cars. you never now what happened most of the time the warranty is over. last thing I want is to buy a second hand car and end up with one that blows up.

Have a look at a UK website called PistonHeads.com :: Speed Matters they have a few American used car dealers selling a lot of muscle their. It may be your worth in time to take a ferry to the UK for the deal.

Last time I was in England not that long ago near Christmas. You could buy a 2007 M3 for about 12 -18 grand . to me thats cheap. Much cheaper than the rigged prices here in the USA.

PS consider a used M5 for sound factor.

PPS . Do they still have the festival in summer in Bruxelles near avenue Waterloo, I remember the Cote Dor factory their and also the lovely Fritz with American Sauce YUMMMMM

like I said. I don't like BMW. they literally all have the same face. there is no distinction between them. yeah the 6 and 7 have a sleeker face. plus their interior is once again. all the same. the 320 and the M4 for example...have the same dash, same steeringwheel (picking the M steering wheel doesn't matter since you can get that as option on pretty much any model)

I appreciate that link but getting a car from the UK registered here is hard as hell as a normal person. plus I personally don't feel like getting 4-7 year old cars. warranty is gone so if I buy the car and something goes wrong. bam costs, especially if its any of the big 3 germans then it's gonna cost tons.

if I get a new car I get 3-5 year of warranty and I don't have to worry about buying a car from the UK and then risking it being stuck in customs for months. I had a friend once who imported a mustang on his own. took him 5 months to get it through customs just on customs not including shipping time. while my other friend who bought a ram bought it through a company specialised in american imports. it took him 2 months to get here.

second hand cars are pretty cheap I know but it's just. I don't trust them most of the time.

I really do appreciate you trying to help me out tho.

plus it's also american muscle has a very distinct noise. hell the noise is one of the big reasons why my dad still isn't sure between picking between the 2015 Z06 or getting a new GT-R. The sound. plus the fact that the interior is alot better than the GT-Rs

Limeybastard

Fair enough. In that case you best look at local importers, which I am sure you already have. Just skip the current mustang with a live rear axle wont be good on those cobble stone roads

Vegitto-kun

Yeaaah I am pretty eliminating it because of that axle. challenger is kinda eeeeh. i have always seen the 2015 model and I didn't realise it wasn't out yet so I looked at the 2014 model and the interior is kinda compared to the 2015. also dem halo lights.

anybody know if they have given release dates for the new mustang and challenger?

Limeybastard

Perhaps a Camero with its superb magnetic shocks?

Davey is spot on.

And muscle cars are sexy as hell. Even I like muscle car looks and power.

But I love my Z more

Good luck
