I see a few are not "truely" a solid street legal/driven car. It should be "as stated" A TRUE honest to god daily driven street legal vehicle, no If i throw tags on it & mufflers blah-blah.
For the record my Duster did have treaded dirt track tires on it as this was before ET streets and drag radials but otherwise could pass a state inspection nearly anywhere. A true 344 cubes with no power adders.
Now uncorked with slicks it was an 11.10 car.

That's an argument that will never be solved on here, LOL. I say if it can't be driven through heavy traffic without issue, it's more of a race car.
But my husband says if the motor vehicle office is dumb enough to give him a plate, it's a street car.

Lot's of great cars on here! I didn't want to comment on cars that I consider "marginal". I wanted to see TRUE STREET CARS that could drive 100 miles at 70 mph (or max speed limit), not rumble and shake, wake up the neighbors, still have the creature conforts such as comfy seats, AC, PS, etc. I know that there are a lot that are "street legal" and the question of "True Street" is subjective. Heck, my Challenger that went 9.3's was in that category! Duner....That's what Im talking about! But everyone on this post deserves a

Everybody has a different interpretation of that but if you consider PS, AC and comfy seats mandatory, then my roadrunner is out because it came from the factory without any of those things

I think a lot of cars are stretchin' it here and I do realize that everyone's opinion of a street car is different. PS and AC is nice, but not required. I think a lot of cars would have to drop out of this thread if you had to drive 30+ miles to a cruise night... Strap the kid in the back seat... and maybe drive it to work once in while. I think we'd be left with a bunch of 11 second cars.
I have to respectfully disagree, if it is legal to run on the street and is licensed for street use then it is a true street car regardless of what everyones personal opinion of the matter is.
