At our age we romance about the muscle cars we used to own in the 60's and 70's. But the truth of the matter is no comparison to today's technology for safety, handling, comfort, reliability and performance. My new Toyota Camry "4 cylinder" (non turbo) puts out 203 HP:
0 to 60 mph 5.5 seconds and
1/4 mile in 14.1 seconds.
Gas mileage 39 mpg highway (I actually get 43mpg consistently on interstate trips)
A 1967 Chevelle SS 396 375 HP :
0- 60 mph 6.5 seconds
1/4 mile 14.9 seconds
Gas mileage don't ask
Tesla Model S
0-60 mph 2.28 seconds
1/4 mile 10.5 seconds
