Stockers looked more like Super Stock cars do. There has been a noticeable shift back to the original look.
I think the muscle cars that came with cool graphics look good with the OEM look. Something like a big wagon has a large canvas for a trick paint job. They didn't come with factory graphics, so a blank canvas there. Everyone gets to reflect on their personality with their car, so I'm cool with all of them.
