as fast as it is ugly
at least i would think. Just for all the people who love the fast vehicles, i apologize in advance for the people who like asthetically appealing vehicles.

It wasn't so much that the government screwed up performance in the 70's and later, it was that there was no market for performance cars. Gas went from $.25/gallon to over $.50/gallon overnight, and then shot up to $.75/gallon. That would be the equivalent of paying $3.00 to $4.00/gallon for gas today. Everybody dumped their performance cars, to go for economy cars and the manufacturers adjusted as well. You could barely give away a big block car.

Yeah, that hurt sales; but, had nothing to do with the power issues that emmissions laws created.

With todays performance vehicles, it goes to show that they can build a low emmissions vehicle and still have performance.
