Car Talk / Re: Best non-American Muscle Cars?
April 11, 2015, 07:59:12 AM
As an Argentinian, I can tell you about 2 fantastic muscle cars that were built in my country in the 60's and 70's.
The fist was the Renault Torino (unrelated to the Ford Torino and based in the american Rambler 440) that can be thought as the national car. In the 80's it was remade and started using arguably the best transmission made at the time in the country (ZF). The engine was a 6 inline 2.3 cu.in. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IKA-Renault_Torino)
The second was the Dodge GTX which was also produced in Mexico. It came with a V8 of 318 cu.in MOPAR Edelbrock Holley of 230 HP . It was killer in straight line, but nearly impossible to turn at high speeds.
