I think this discussion needs a new distinction, that of GT, or Grand Touring cars.  I drive a 911, my friends drive 928s, and the only thing we can agree on 
is that the two cars are for different purposes.  A 911 is a sports car, and as such it is for driving on tight twisty roads where flat out is ~90 mph.
A 928 is a GT car, which means it is for meant for cruising all day at 120-140 
mph and not making its driver tired, or for driving on gentle twisty roads
where flat out is ~120 mph.  A muscle car is meant purely for getting thrills from outrageous acceleration, and not for driving anywhere.  A new Vette is a GT
car, and an old Vette is a muscle car.
