To refine a muscle car is a sin. I can understand AC, power steering, comfy seats. But to expect modern car comfort and "get in and go" functionality out of one seems to go against the mere purpose of the vehicle.

Then again, I'm a guy stuffing a 170whp Yamaha R1 with a sequential gearbox in a 1970 mini, so I have a few screws loose myself.

Whatever floats your boat I guess.

I think some people should have bought an AMG SL55 instead of a 1969 camaro though on these forums.

A refined muscle car is cute, I'd like one for my girlfriend.
I have to disagree. Not to side track the thread, but your always bitter about cars that happen to have some creature comforts. My car is not cute, my wife is. I love your car but why slag a car with a killer stereo, etc? I love music and cars! Power windows why not... it's pimp and adds a few pounds, whatever? Maybe you should look again at what site your posting on and what defines a Pro Touring car. You don't like shinny paint I do.
