Saints Row The Third – What Counts as a Muscle Car in ‘Subtlety Optional’ Assassination

saints-row-the-third

In the assassination "Subtlety Optional" assassination given by Angel, he says to pull up to a certain gas station in a muscle car to lure out the owner/target. I have tried several different cars like the Vortex and Raycaster, but none of them seem to be what he's looking for. Admittedly, those are more sports cars than muscle cars, but I'm not sure I've come across any actual muscle cars.

What cars can I actually use to complete this mission and where can I find them?

There's a very short list - I think maybe 4 total:

They're tricky to spot, and they're not sports cars (so the Torch/Temptress/etc don't count).

I found they tend to spawn outside the Angel's Gym crib the most often, in the parking lot and surrounding lots.

I believe the Bootlegger is also a possible gang vehicle option, if you select it from the gang customization menu at one of your hideouts. However, you'll have to figure out a way to make your homies show up if you go this route. There's an upgrade option in the phone which gives you the ability to call some gang members, which is the most reliable way.

I think the Phoenix is driven by a particular homie (possible spoiler if you've not advanced the plot to the point where you meet the Mayor):

Mayor Reynolds - he drives a Phoenix customized to look like the Trans Am he drives in Smokey and the Bandit
