It will still be nice to see cars that harking backs to the good days but what both companies need is a 30 MPG to 40 mpg highway vehicle that trumps all foreign competitors.
Which is exactly why i dont see the G8 as any type of muscle car. Its just a great large 4-dr sedan. That doesnt make it a muscle car, especially when that's all they do is compare it to a 5-series.

The charger on the other hand is clearly meant to be more of a muscle car. Other than its V8, why else would you want this car? My point exactly.
