muscle car 在香港一問(15分)

A muscle car is a high-performance automobile. The term principally refers to American, Australian and South African models with large-capacity engines produced between 1964 and 1973 for American cars and between 1968 and 1976 for Australian cars.

Definition
The term muscle car generally describes a rear wheel drive mid-size car with a large, powerful V8 engine and special trim, intended for maximum torque on the street or in drag racing competition. It is distinguished from sports cars, which were customarily and coincidentally considered smaller, two-seat cars, or GTs, two-seat or 2+2 cars intended for high-speed touring and possibly road racing. High-performance full-size or compact cars are arguably excluded from this category, as are the breed of compact sports coupes inspired by the Ford Mustang, the "pony car". Another factor used in defining classic muscle cars are their age and country of origin. A classic muscle car is usually but not necessarily made in the US or Australia between 1964 and 1975.

An alternate definition is based on power-to-weight ratio, defining a muscle car as an automobile with (for example) fewer than 12 pounds per rated hp. Such definitions are inexact, thanks to a wide variation in curb weight depending on options and to the questionable nature of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) gross hp ratings in use before 1972, which were often deliberately overstated or underrated for various reasons.

其實最主要係Muscle Car唔適合香港環境.低轉扭力太強,個油門敏感度又做得唔好,塞車會揸得好辛苦.而且Muscle Car D V8動不動就五,六千CC, 香港牌費咁貴點頂

Muscle car ge 歷史同資料上面位朋友都答左, 我唔repeat 喇.
香港少muscle, 我相信係因為香港冇代理引入muscle car. 主要原因係muscle car 太大食, 3000cc 至 6000cc 都有, 而且香港冇鬼佬咁鍾意muscle (鬼佬鍾意muscle car, 亞洲人鍾意日本車), 只有少數人鍾意muscle car, 對於香港人每每講求實際and 香港而家ge油稅咁高, 所以muscle car 冇乜市場 (相比美國及澳洲, 香港ge油價差不多高一倍).
唔單只muscle car, 好多特別/另類 ge車such as Smart Fortwo or 冷門D ge 牌子such as Lotus and Alfa 都會比較少見. 香港周圍都係7人車, 同外國相比真係有好大ge分別~
