    Its not exactly a muscle car, but I can see why you think it is. Around that time period, most American cars were similar. They all had v8s, were somewhat large, had soft suspension, etc. But the main difference is that the Moonhawk is considerably slower, has less power, and handles worse.

    Yes, notice how that said in brackets, indicating that the word is not really being properly used (if thats the correct way off putting it) Have you ever actually driven that car ? Compare a stock 291 Barstow to a sporty Moonhawk, i dare you

    Some would argue that neither are true muscle cars. The Barstow is in some ways more of a pony car. The Moonhawk is a malaise era car, which means right off the bat it's difficult to call it a "muscle car".

    The Gremlin was a small FR with a 5.0 V8, is that a muscle car?

    Looks the same to me

    If the bolide would be getting a revamp, and that revamped version would be the one used in the teaser, there would be many more differences. It would be very easy to tell too. The one in the teaser has the same imperfections in the model as the current one too, so I don't think it's getting a revamp.

    I'm not sure if it is just an FOV thing, but the taillights on the Bolide in the teaser seem a little bit wider. Also, the interior and engine look like they have higher-quality textures.

    Also: Current interior layout

    Teaser interior layout:
    upload_2021-4-20_13-52-53.png

    How are you seeing a new interior here
    --- Post updated ---
    it's in the sunlight because the TOD and position of the car on the map is different than in the teaser.

    If I position the car so it is in the sun the brightness is the same.
