C'mon man! What do you expect? Our old car technology is over 50 years old and it still put up a good fight. The Buick wins hands down in the looks and coolness factor. Let's see how cool that Jeep is in 5 decades.

Is that yours a 71 Cutlass S 350/350
I would spend the money on the GSX rather than the SRT, about 1992 I had the chance to buy a 70GSX it was missing the 455 and had a 350 in it's place. The guy wanted 10k for the car and it was a 4sp yellow car I didn't get it as I just picked up my 92 5.0L 5sp and just got married, the wife informed me that I would be living in the Buick if I picked it up LOL.

Yep, that's my '71 Cutlass. One of many projects. My Father bought it in '78 and it was his hot-rod project for 10 years then gave it to me when he bought a '80 Z/28. The Olds has a 350 built to W31 specs, TH400 and 3.91 posi. I hear you on the new technology vehicles, love my '15 Z/28. Don't get me started on the electric vehicles. 11 sec 1/4 miles are impressive but they have the personality of a golf cart. I firmly believe they have no soul.

GSX is my favorite car irrelevant of price or attainability. Saturn yellow is the only color I want one in as well.

In stock trim, old muscle cars haven't been fast since the 70s. A 2.0T Camaro would probably beat my big block 69 Chevelle.

The 70's Muscle Cars were fast right up to the early 90's then in the last 15 years they have been eclipsed by the latest and greatest in the 1/4

I could've told you this. Another thing that may surprise people, my daily driver Malibu, stock for stock, would beat quite a few base muscle cars! The advent of technology is the biggest reason for this.
Desirability, that's a totally different subject. Very few cars from today could match the desirability of a sixties muscle car IMO.
