Automakers Finding That Muscle Cars Still Have A Market

America is flexing its muscle.

In Metro Detroit, the Woodward Dream Cruise celebrates all that thunders under the hood. But not all are vintage models: There are many modern-day muscle cars on the market, and sales are surprisingly strong despite gas price spikes and economic jitters that should have scared buyers away from performance cars and into subcompacts or hybrids.

The Ford Mustang has been on the market for 46 years; rivals such as the Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Charger and Challenger have taken production breaks over the years.

The selection available to enthusiasts today is as robust as any time in history.
