I really like the last generations retro styling across all the muscle cars.

But they're pigs, I can't get excited about them even with 700+ horsepower or a handjob machine I just can't bring myself to be interested in current and near future muscle cars.

Massive upside is the Turbo Four Bangers are finally delivering on the promise of what the industry rumors were 5-10 years ago: High Power, High Efficiency and with the Muscle cars incorporating them hopefully they aren't lame ducks like they were in the 70's and 80's. Those 300 horsepower four bangers delivering low 30's and high 20's mpg's are great for when they decide to continue with the Focus/Fiesta ST and add performance to the other regular cars: sedans, wagons, trucks etc.

Give me a Ford Ranger/Chevy S10 with the 2.3L Eco-whatever under 3,200 lbs. and the same exterior dimensions of 25 years ago.
