    If you’re referring to the old muscle cars, there are, actually. And not a few:

    • Opel Diplomat
    • Aston Martin V8 Vantage
    • Aston Marin DBS V8
    • Jensen Interceptor
    • Bitter SC
    • Rover SD1
    • AMG Hammer
    • Iso Grifo

    They also have many modern ones, mostly coming from BMW and Mercedes (the AMG models), but in the rest they have something even better: supercars, with many models coming from Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, Bugatti and Maserati

      And McLaren. They have exited the EU but they’ll never move out of Europe. Oh, and Porsche.

        Both McLaren and Porsche are more in the “sports car” category, as they are more aerodynamic than powerful and optimized for overall racing performance than just straight line and unleashing a powerful engine like the muscle cars are doing

          Sure but so are Ferraris and Lambos. They are amazing on track but they were mentioned so I thought I’d add the other two.
