Default are we among another *muscle car era*

Ford has the SVT line up
Chrysler has the PVO
GM has the SS
even saturn has a supercharged car out.
just about all makes of domestic vehicles has a *pumped up version* of there vehicle.

I got my new motor trend last night in the mail, Shelby has introduced the 2007 mustang already it has the same 5.4ltr that the ford GT packs, this thing will be insane. I cant wait to see what the cobra and the SVT has to offer. (my wife is wanting a new mustang, i think i might have to save alot of $$ while in japan for the return home)
..my point, are we among another "muscle car era"?

I wanna see honda release a new hatchback (not like the SI's) with something over 200hp, that'd be cool ----.

I work for ford here in detroit designing parts and whatnot, but I didnt get to see the shelby until the North American International auto show last week. There damn nice I must say, but by far, the Shelby was alot nicer.

in everything ive read its always "it will be produced, its highly unlikely that we will get to see it on our sales lots" this time is "The type R will finally make it here in full strength"
