V8TV, what would be cool if you do a show on something like this, would be to include a new car as a bench-mark to compare them to, like a new Porsche or some other sports-car that people tend to think way too highly of. People seem to think only the Europeans know how to make a car handle, so if you used a 'vette, the euro-car guys would all rip on it for getting beat by "old, heavy, tanks"... do the same tests with a Porsche, and suddenly it's amazing how great the old cars handle, rather than how poorly the new one does...

Something set up like CC's RSE, but without the "show" part of it... also include cost to build, and gas-mileage, and several muscle-cars ranging from a $10,000 build to a $100,000 build.
