Chevrolet classic muscle cars were at the center of the classic cars period of American large cubic inch high performance motors. The essential theme of the muscle car was extreme performance for minimum amount of money. This classic car concept played to Chevrolet’s strength as a premium producer of striking and affordable muscle cars for sale.
Chevrolet produced the most extensive and most admired collection of muscle cars of any manufacturer throughout the 1960s – 1970s. Chevrolet had authority as a performance-car builder due to its small-block V-8 that debuted in 1955. This V8 was a favorite of drag racers, and its role in the success of the Corvette swayed any lingering doubters that Chevrolet knew how to produce fast cars.
It was the well-known 409-cid V-8 that did as much for Chevrolet’s muscle car representation. Introduced in 1961, it’s most captivating home was the new lmpala Super Sport, which could be setup with a 360 horsepower 409. A dual four-barrel carburetor choice for 1962 brought 1 HP per cubic inch to this dominant V8, and soon after the 409’s produced up to 425 HP.
Chevrolet’s offering in the midway lines was the Chevelle, and its Super Sport revision became one of the most-popular classic muscle cars of all time. The Chevelle SS was initially offered with 283- and 327-cid small-block V-8s with up to 300 bhp. In 1965, a 375-bhp 396-cid big-block was installed in just over 200 Chevelles, and the muscle car competition was on. The Chevelle was so popular that even the car owners manuals are collectors items.
The Chevelle SS 396 became a break away model in 1966, and more than 72,000 were produced that year. The Chevelle SS power peaked for 1970 with the 450-bhp LS6 adaptation of the 454-cid V-8. The LS6 SS 454 Chevelles were among the quickest and fastest classic cars ever built.

There are many top of the line sports cars for sale in the car market that are available in different price ranges. The prices range from $20,000 for a compact car up to the $1,250,000 price of the Bugatti Veyron that can perform as a luxury car or for racing as well.

Since the sports car was introduced in the world of automobiles, the sports car has become one of the best sellers of every car manufacturer that produces any version of its kind. The sports car is still the hottest seller and one that many car enthusiasts want to own. The desirable appearance and extravagance it portrays makes every sports car stunning in the eyes of any driver. Here are some models that are ‘top of the line’ in the category of sports cars:

1. The Aston Martin DB9 Volante has features similar to the Jaguar, especially their external appearance. There are some similarities between the cars but the DB9 is more classical and the Jaguar XKR can be more handsome if you look at the details very closely. The DB9 comes with a 6-liter and 450-hp V12 engine that can satisfy every driver’s need for speed.

2. The Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is capable of reaching 400-hp with smooth steering wheels and track-ready handling. It is affordable with its price of $50,000. The pricing is low compared to other sports cars that have similar features and performance. The current release of the Corvette is still the fastest in its class and to previous Corvettes that were released.

3. The Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Roadster comes with a power ignition hardtop, which is a modification from the previous SL design. It is probably the most extravagant aspect on the design. However, the most awesome feature in this car is its mechanical features that come with a V12 engine and produces 604-hp. The car can blast you away in a glimpse because of its speed.

4. The Jaguar XKR Convertible is a ‘looker’ with its external appearance. Its awesome look does not end there. The mechanical features resemble the other great features of the car. Compared to other versions of the Jaguar, the XKR is highly tuned and has a 390-hp V8 engine that generates the great performance of the sports car.

I have had a love of everything Porche since seeing the movie Risky Business, Tom Cruise was so cool. So to see a sweet, lovely silver Porche 911 in this condition made me want to cry – and wait till you hear how it got this way!

On June 7, 2009 at approximately 9:30 am in a quiet Atlanta suburb, Richard Beccond left his house for work and took the Forline Turnpike like he did every day. At 9:45 a wide-load hauler was moving a slew of construction equipment with one of those vehicles being a 5 ton crane with a wrecking ball attached. To make a long story a little shorter lets skip to the part where the hauler flips on the overpass and the crane falls off and the wrecking ball swings across the turnpike below smashing into this beautiful 911 Porche!! Now it is only good for used parts and because the driver miraculously survived there is a rumor he will donate his car to a local charity.

Of course you remember the car from Too Fast Too Furious, It was a 2003 model Nissan GT-R. The 2009 model is a Beast and with 480 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque it is 8.1 pounds per horsepower way more powerful than the Porsche 911 Turbo and the Corvette Z06 in its class.

The Japanese can pack some real power when they mean it. They just needed an entry point so they chose efficiency because it was a market need that wasn’t addressed yet, and with the GT-R they said they are not just about fuel economy.
