Notoriously, classic muscle cars were quick in a straight line but sloppy when going around corners and loath to stop quickly. Detroit marketing used everything from racing participation to cartoon birds-remember the Plymouth Road Runner?-to sell boomers the hot muscle cars that they craved.
Boomers wanted power and excitement, and they got it thanks to big V-8 engines, and at affordable prices no less. American muscle cars first appeared in the 1960s as manufacturers appealed to the massive baby-boomer generation.
