If I ever have enough money, I'm buying a V12 Vantage for the street and a V8 Vantage for jus this reason. Dreams.

I can't find the exact picture, but I remember when the ZR1 made it's debut, there was profile shot of it sitting pretty damn high.

This isn't the one, but you get the idea

The term "muscle car" didn't come about until the mid 70s. So in its early days the Olds 442 would have been called a "super car."

You're spot on! Most of my old issues of Car & Driver would call them that, even thoug they would use the term muscular to refer to large engines and good performance. Detroit's mid-sizes were Super Cars, while the the small-sizes were called Sporty Cars.

I'd probably take a Muscle Car however it presented itself, haha...

Not really a supercar either, but it's still super awesome.

High ground clearance for any car is cool. And not just for 4x4 conversions.
