These lists are always garbage and are so subjective that they're not even worth printing.

A muscle car to one person is a poonces car to someone else........
If half the keyboard pilots had a chance at driving a HO or a GTS 300 round a track or down the 1/4 , they'd still be beaten by a half decent driver pedalling a Hyundai i30............does that make the HO less of a muscle car and a Hyuandai a real MUSCLE CAR ??????

Methinks not............horses for courses and I reckon we're all getting sick of these lists.

Yeah shouldnt have, but i didnt mean it in that way. You will always get guys that cant see a new car as a muscle car (you know who you are). I think its a pretty good list and the blue oval is well represented.

Good to see the VG Pacer up there.A true muscle car in every sense.

Theres more exclusive cars to come from ford then that.
I wonder how long before this thread turns to carp :

[tetgreg888]

Wow no Ford coupes, : no XD / E 351 : not even a good old HQ 350 GTS Monaro coupe. Then again that is what I would have in the list :

When will we see a list of the most depreciating muscle cars I wonder?

Maybe the TS was more of a Luxury performance based car.

TE being the lighter, more 'race' oriented version id say and as above

Yeah might as well............I'd end up with 3 x T3's and a backyard full of EBXR6's.......... a different coloured car for each day of the week.

I think it may be because the TE was what they tested, in the writeup about it they do mention their initial thoughts from when it was tested for the mag.
