Late 80s, they started to figure out how to make power again. Early 80s is a fucking wasteland.

agreed. the imported euro 4's were terrible, things got a lot more exciting when the big three figured out how to build their own small motors

There was a cat that figured out that you could shoehorn a small block Chevy into a Fiero GT with almost entirely stock Chevy off-the-shelf parts.

A mid-engined V8 American sports car has its allure...a poor man's Pantera...

Not really muscle in my book. Sporty, yes.

Only the delorean with the three rotor cosmo swap backed up by a porsche gearbox is cool. All the others have that awful v6
