For me, no it's not. I've never had the inclination to buy into the whole Mustang/Camaro/muscle thing.

At 60 years old, I bought the FR-S for fun, not as any type of investment. Just want fun. And the FR-S delivers every single time I climb in. I love it.

We all know that RWD sports cars are a market niche - nothing new there. We also know that within that category there are the "blaze in a straight line" muscle cars, and "rip up the turns" machines for two different types of drivers. So I am never settled when they get tossed in the same bin, as in this article.

So IMO, there will always be a low-volume market for this niche, not every manufacturer will want to play in that space, and the "muscle" type will outsell the "nimble/handling" type. What's new here to report?
