Ford’s new linup of Mustangs and Fusions are top notch imo. The Charger I also think is one of the most badass sedans on the road, proper family muscle right there. The only downside with American cars are their interiors are still pretty crap compared to well, pretty much everyone. [/quote]

The new Chevy Impala is a nice car. Pictures do not do it justice. Very nice lines, and that 3.6 engine puts out serious power. Nice interior also.

I like this. Luxury, performance, can haul your kids and run like hell. You need a family sedan, why not get one with a 415 HP V8? Fuck a Camry, they suck. Get an SS…[/quote]

I haven’t driven one of those yet. But want to. It’s pretty much a four door sedan put on top of a vette

imho there is the BMW M5, and every other fast 4 door trying to be the M5 (not trying to derail the thread, just my preference/opinion)

I was just going to post this pic!

I love wagons. An E63 wagon might just be my dream car, but the CTS V-type is sweet as hell.

The M5 is the perennial king of sports sedans. I’m also a big fan of the 2003 RS6. That said, that supercharged CTS-V I rode in is one whale of a sweet car as well.

Hell yeah, I love the wagon. I wish they still made it. Sales weren’t up to par.

The Commodore was such a nice car, the G8 was nice but not as nice as the Commodore and the SS isn’t as nice as either one. Why are companies putting those ugly plastic pieces for their front bumper?

The new Impala is actually really nice, I saw one the other day but front wheel drive ruins it for me.

I stand corrected… I guess they gave it a reprieve for 2014. I sure wish I could afford one. I’d love a wagon that can do a cool 160 easy. That would embarrass some rice burners for sure…

Same with the Buick Regal GS, and really any car that is fwd sucks.

Aside from the Fiat 500 Abarth SS. I’m a Lambo, I really am really!


I want one of these. And I want it to be loud as hell

I’m not saying the new performance cars are bad, they are technological wonders. blow the doors off the one’s I mentioned. I just love the look of the 60s and 70s, especially the old “Muscle” cars.
67 GTX Hemi [/quote]

The GTX with the 440 and 4-speed is one of my dream cars to this day. The Hemi was cool though, although not as reliable as the 440.

Long tube headers and cherry bombs on the back should do the trick…

I’m looking at the Impala SS as possibly my next car. I have a 2012 Malibu LT right now, a very nice car and it ran me $22,810 in late 2011.

Caddys are nice, would also consider their ATS as a contender. Lincoln also has some nice cars worth a look.
