Rendered Speculation: The return of the AMX
|
|
American Motors may have lost its way towards the end of its life in the '80s, but the little car company that could created some very cool vintage American iron.

The original Pontiac GTO
|
|
It’s been about 45 years since the first “Official” muscle car
came out. The 1964 Pontiac GTO is an icon among icons when
it comes to muscle cars. This is the car that “started it all” and it

The 1963 Pontiac Tempest was a pretty mild car. It was classified
as a compact car and ...

|
|
Though the Official Car of SEMA this year is the Chevy Camaro, we expect tons of tuners to show up in Las Vegas with the Dodge Challenger. The Challenger has been on sale all year, which has given the customizing crowd plenty of time to modify the new muscle car.

If you still have tens of thousands of dollars burning a hole in your pocket in this economy, ...

Tested: 2009 Dodge Challenger SE, R/T, SRT8
|
|
These muscle/ponycars seemed such a great idea at the time-both in the late 1960s when the supply of oil and hormonal baby-boomers both seemed inexhaustible, and again in 2005/6 when Mustang styling went all 1967, prompting Dodge and Chevy to hustle out their own retromobile concepts. Gas was still (relatively) cheap, power was easy. But quicker ...
