It's, in part, that kind of propaganda that contributed/started the end of the muscle car era. An HP war between manufacturers, resulting in ''too'' powerfull cars that started to scare ordinary people.

+ those modern muscles are probably 1000% safer than our old muscle cars..

As a french canadian it was hard to put words on my toughts but I think I explained myself pretty well.

Three things killed the Muscle Car Era:

1. Insurance rates
2. Rising cost of gas
3. The EPA

Only the first can be linked to "dangerous cars" for the masses
