After suffering through the 1970s, the idea of American muscle cars made the first steps towards return in the 80s. These cars looked better and had more power, …

Top 8 Coolest 1980s Muscle Cars
The iroc was badass but the iron Duke version sucked. Only 90hp in a camaro…
Nothing beats the vet still kicking
GM had so many different choices 😂 like wtf
From the time I was a kid in the 80s to now in my 40s I loved these cars. Still can’t afford one
the foxbody will never die! mustang gt forever!!!!
Wondering if my c4 corvette will be here
Neon??
Just bought a beautiful 1989 Pontiac GTA, gonna drop an LT1 in it
Trane AM GtA is get the weirdest lights ever
THE 442 WAS MY 1ST CAR THEN I BOUGHT A CAMARO. I WAS 16
BUICK GN !!! # 1
this makes me wanna buy a 1980's car
Razor sharp lines? Most 80s cars are boxes on wheels. Still cool. But boxes on wheels
#6 wasn’t a 4-4-2 its a hurst/olds
These cars look better than anything new
1. Buick GNX
2. Cadillac Fleetwood
3. Ford LTD Crown Victoria
All three are the the best 80s American cars. Not counting American trucks and suvs.
Seriously? Number 6 should be the 83-84 hurst olds and 85-87 442.
You lost all credibility
Imagine a car with the front of a Firebird and rear of a Camaro. The rear of the Firebird looks bland compared to the Camaro's blocks of lights. The front of the Camaro with the flatter hood and recessed headlights looks weird compared to Firebird's more curved hood and the cool pop up lights.
So,calling this video 8 muscle cars, you meant 7? Got it
Going forward, all dictionary entries for “oxymoron” should simply be a link to this video.
Pontiac trans am 5.7 v8 ..5 spedd.nice.
Bizi
GNX was supercharged, no?
Cokentater is somewhat inaccurate but checky dah deky…ahhh good tymes!
80s mustangs and Dodge omnis are not muscle cars the rest are pretty cool tho especially the GNX and Camero
My Dad had a GLHS when I was a kid. I remember him ripping through the 5 speed manual and it just fucking screaming. It was amazing in the turns, handled like it was on a rail. The wide, low profile tires were nice for handling.
Hell, there were no true muscle cars in the 80’s PERIOD… Get over yourselves wannabe’s!
Ever heard of L88 ? … 435 hp rated from the factory – actually closer to 580 hp ‘production engine’.. What did the 80’s have that even comes close to that? .. Just the facts now – no bs.
My uncle had a red IROC-Z when I was a child in the 80s and early 90s. Everytime he gave me a ride it felt like the coolest car in the world
I would've included the 1989 turbo Trans Am! It used the same GNX 3.8l Turbo V6
I can't get past the narrating of this video. What is this the late 90s?
I drive a 86 Trans Am and it is awesome.
what about the mercury Capri rs?
Jesus, some of those cars look dog shit by today's standards or by 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, 2000's standards. They just look mostly like cheap Japanese imports bar the iroc or the pontiac.
What sux is I was 16 in the 80s and couldn't afford any of these cars. Now I can afford one but none of them exist that aren't completely destroyed☹️
GM won the 80s
Grand National is 3rd?!?
Love my gm cars but my old GLH used to win me lots of street race money… no one knew what it was they'd laugh.. i do this same thing with my girlfriend Tesla model S P90D .. sec electric car..its amazing
I'm 14 but dam i'm in love with the buick gnx
My favourite was the 82 corvette coupe in black,for the looks not performance
I have a trans am 1994 🥰😍
I think I would've went the the Z24 Cavalier before the Omni lol
Everyone has that one car they wish they could have back, Mine was my 88 IROC. I had the black one with the gold pinstriping, it was gorgeous and freaking fun to drive. Always turned heads too.
I was obsessed with the trans ams, never got one
