2010 Camaro SS - I'm growing back my mullet

You know that this is a motorcycle blog - however, being raised in De-troy-it I occasionally revert to my youth and post blogs about cars that I desire.


They say that folks buy cars for what they do for their "well being" and not just for transportation, they make a rolling statement about who you are or wish to be .............. well I had a Camaro & a Firebird in my Youth, and maybe the love for these cars is bringing some of that youth back!

Here is the SS It is Retro with a whole lot of modern attitude.

422 Horses??? Give me back, give me back, give me back - my mullet
(sung to the LS Give me back my Bullit)
From a link on WINDING ROAD a cool cyber car mag .......... image of the modern muscle car is notable for the fact that it is the first overall shot that GM has officially released. It showed up on the automaker's media site yesterday evening all by its lonesome with no accompanying details, but what else is there to know besides the fact it's packing a 6.2L LS3 V8 producing 422 hp and 408 lb-ft of torque? And for those who were wondering before, the nostril vent does appear to be part of the production package. Perhaps this picture's sudden appearance portends more information to come. We'll keep our ears and eyes open just in case.

2009 Challenger

The original Challenger. And the retro/modern version of today.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet! The Challenger was not at the De-Troy-it auto show, but it did make an appearance at the Cleveland Auto Show (billed as biggest in NA) Sq Ft wise. Anyway, it was a big show and included antiques, classics, muscle cars, funny cars, tuners, and even a display of about a dozen and a half Harley Davidson Motorcycles and the Big Rig HD Semi. Well you have to know that this Blogger was in heaven.

2008 Dodge Challenger

The SRT-tuned 6.1-liter Hemi V8 produces the same 425 hp at 6200 rpm and 420 lb-ft of torque at 4800. 0-60 in low 5's ........................ sweet, and oh, I want one of these too!

"I have uncontrollable hedonistic desire for everything that burns fossil fuel and produces greater that required carbon footprint to propel one human from home to work in less time - I am ashamed of myself and beg for your forgiveness for my selfish existence. I am truly a product of "Where-You-Were-When" ............. Growing up in DeTroit Meechigan in the 60's & 70's made me who I am. ............ So shut up and ride!!OneHarleyRider
