Teslas may have some serious scoot, but they are not a muscle car.
Well put. The same logic applies to exotics. A 1200hp TT Gallardo is no Muscle car.

That's what got me, too. I freaked out when I saw an Orange one a few months ago at a redlight. I was excited to see it take off from the redlight, which it did. Quickly. But without noise. I can't really explain how much that takes away from the car to those who haven't experienced it in person.

This sums up a muscle-car:
  • RWD
  • V8 in the front
  • (mostly) Made in America

It's not a muscle-car.
