Muscle car definitions?

Ok, here is the definiton of a Barracuda and 'Cuda. It isnt actually kinda simple but very few people have heard the story about it.

In 1970, Plymouth wanted to get even more into the teenager market with the "Outta this World" colors and major changes in the body styles and new cars introduced. So with the totally new things introduced Plymouth decided to bring out the 'Cuda. The same exact thing as a Barracuda but they changed it because of the teenagers and racers saying 'Cuda and only 'Cuda. It was just a shortened term for Barracuda and The Mopar groups tried everything the could to get ALL of the market and in my mind they did.

So, Plymouth was just trying to get into the teenagers market more and they changed it to fit in more and they did it!

I have no idea why they do not consider the 340 'Cuda a muscle car. My best guess is that the 'Cuda is a heavy car actually. Weighting in at around 3400-3600 pounds and with only a "200-some" horsepower engine which was complete BULL**** that was a "slow" car in their mind. I seriously doubt they even drove a 340 AAR 'Cuda!

The 340 Duster is a muscle car but it only weighs 3200-3300 pounds. So I think they just dont know what a true muscle car is! They think the GTO was a muscle car they didnt know crap. Check out the max wedges! WOOOOHOOO!

Remember MOPAR OR NOCAR PLAIN AND SIMPLE!
