The closing of the 96 Impala T56 vid: "someday, we will look back with fondness and remember a time when GM made the biggest, baddest cars around..."

True story.

Great vids, thanks!

By todays standards those are the "Biggest Baddest Cars" being made today.Different decade,same phrase describing
a modern fast american car.Remember when the new for 77 Caprice was a new scaled down version of the old barge.
I will say that todays fast cars are a huge leap forward in quality,horsepower,handling,ergonomics and lastly safety.
When I look back at my favorite musclecars from the 60s,70s,and well forget the 80s and the rebirth of performance
in the 90s,all I can say is these are greatest times for the performance car.
I also think that the end is near for the true performance car and I hope I am wrong.The greenies took a major hit this
week with the myth of global warming really being a scare tactic and they sure want to stop the production of any
car not getting 40mpg.
