A New Band New Muscle Car That's Not Made By The Big 3
 

trying to pull a timpo here
Detroit's Newest Muscle Car Is A Mash Up Of Every Great Muscle Car

not going to lie, this car is sick & i love it brings muscle cars back to its roots (i seriously hope its not a repost, as i have done a search)

God damn! Not sure about the lower front fascia, but shit the rest is beautiful

I have a mixed feeling about this. :suspicious:

How is different than Hyundai and Kia trying to make a luxury sedan that sorta looks like Mercedes and BMW with a hint of Audi?

At glance, kind of like a Camaro but it could look like a Challenger?

The rear..its like a almost-Mustang logo with almost-BOSS combined with Challenger rear.

also, Mustang interior, ZR1 wheels, etc...

ok this thing is nothing but an identity crisis ::okay::

Because this is a tribute, not a ripoff

The profile looks great. It really looks classic. I like the modern muscle cars more than any other modern car, but often times they try to look "modern". This one doesn't seem to give a shit about that at all. Apply a 70's instagram filter to these, and it will look like it belonged in those times

Yes I agree, frankly, all modern muscle cars look like toys.
That's why you get Retro Built bodykit.

I'm not usually an American muscle guy but wow that thing looks amazing! I love it.

the retro kits are not as nice as this one timpo (omg i just realize i just pulled a timpo lol)

If its going to be a tribute, I wish they would have done it more like the singer 911s. Pick a car, use new car technology, in original/updated classic body shape. It does look good though.

It still is an identity crisis, why are they calling it Equus???

and most important question, what's the retail on one of those?

^ I read $250-296k USD

More than you can afford, pal

This is HOT

Besides having a different front fascia, I don't see how it looks any different from a mustang fastback..

Wow, I like it!

Because it is a tribute to the early Mustang, and the latin genus for a horse is Equus.

And the reason modern muscle cars look like toys is because we've seen thirty years of models, Hot Wheels, and Micro Machines idolizing a 15 year period of domestic vehicle engineering. The toys were meant to look lie idealized versions of the originals.

Timpo, why do you have so many Questions?

I agree, I really like the interior and the updated drive train etc, but keep the classic lines of the mustang to a mustang and a camaro to a camaro, not an amalgamation of all the great's together into a muscle car identity crisis

I think it looks great! $250k seems kinda steep though, geez

not digging the front fogs. rest is epic.

i wish it had a better name and logo though. a backwards looking horse? the car should be confident that it's leaving ppl in the dust so it doesn't have to look back!

i remember seeing this awhile back on autoblog, not a huge fan of the fogs, sorta wished they made the grille completely rectangular without the bump at the bottom like the old camaros

i wonder how many people are gonna be willing to pay 250k for essentially a muscle car :considered:

Cool concept but for 250K you could restore and Pro Touring mod a real classic. Hell for that kind of money you could probably do two. 250K is way too much to be asking for this car. It's just a modern Eleanor without the soul.

I'd rather have an original anyway:

Price and name ruined it for me :fuckthatshit:
