Most of these cars aren't muscle cars. More sporty coupes.
Not sure why everyone thinks the 62 Dodge is so ugly- all everyone saw was the tail lights lol
Your 1978 Dodge Challenger is a Mitsubishi Sapporo in all other Countries. It wasn't a real produced Dodge at all.
Mitsubishi Scorpion in Australia.
And originally a Mitsubishi Galant Lambda in Japan and Philippines
American muscle cars ? Dodge Dart 1962 ugly ? One of the coolest looking trendsetting cars. What are the sales figures of other compact cars from 62 with high horsepower V8:s ?
Yup DOG UGLY.....to many different idea all happening on that one body. It's Pontiac Aztec of it's generation. A car that if it actually had any decent attributes at all you take advantage of them by only driving after dark while being absolutely sure to hide away in the garage out or out behind a barn where it can be seen during the day light hours........YUP......it is THAT UGLY!! Sorry. On the brighter side? By the late 1960s the Dart was easy to argue as one of the very best looking small cars out there. Who wouldn't want a 340 Dart GT? That's a GREAT LOOKING car.
How are most of these muscle cars? Front wheel drives, 4 cyls in most cases. Do you even know what a muscle car is?
muscle car doesnt need v8 engine
@@filipzatka8212By original technical definition; yeah it does. An intermediate sized car, or pony car with a v8 over five liters.
@@ItsDaJax Pure definition of muscle car is put the largest possible motor into a rwd, mid to large sized regular bodied car. Like a Malibu becoming a Chevelle SS. Like a LeMans becoming a GTO. A Fairlane becoming a Torino Cobra Jet. Etc. then Pony cars. Compact car with long hood short deck that are sporty coupes. Like a Nova becoming a Camaro or a Falcon or later a Pinto or even later a Fairmont becoming a Mustang. Then there are a lot of these cars. Front wheel drive Turbo cars with 4 cyls. Now they call them Sport compacts. Back when these were made were called. Hot Hatches, Econoboxes, Pocket rockets. But a 4 cyl fwd, compact , Turbo car has never been nor never will be a muscle car. So please check your definition of muscle car. Plus who said anything about a V8? A rwd GNX with a mid size coupe body from a Regal is a muscle car. By the way love 80's Turbo Dodges and even had a Shadow ES back in the day in the early 90's but never will be a muscle car.
@@bikingD Dude... you don't know what you're talking about. First off, I said the ORIGINAL definition. Secondly; intermediate cars are not "large"[full size] cars intermediate means mid-size, the middle. A Charger is a mid size car, with a 440 or 426 is a muscle car, with a 318 or 225 it is not. A Chrysler New Yorker or Imperial are full size cars, they're too big to be muscle cars. By today's standards; A Taurus is a full size car, the Fusion is a midsized car, the Focus is a compact, and a Fiests a sub compact. The term compact car didn't even exist until the fuel crisis, when cars like the Maverick, Pacer, Vega came to be, to compete with foreign cars, who's base engines were 4bangers, while inline sixes were the base engines for everything else not a full size car. Muscle cars are mid sized cars that use engines from full sized cars. Pony cars became muscle cars when they put bigger engines in them. A 429 Mustang is a muscle car, a 289 is a pony car, and it doesn't even make 300 gross hp.
Pony cars are not compact cars. Compact cars were the Maverick/Comet, Monza and Vega, or Pinto that are smaller than pony cars, and typically did not have v8s, if they did, it was the smallest pony car v8s. A Maverick and Vega are smaller than the Mustang and Camaro, and were sold as compact cars.
A Fairlane and Torino are not the same car or on the same platform. A Fairlane is a full size car, like the Galaxy. The Torino are intermediate cars. Novas are not Camaros, they are based off the Chevy II. Falcons are not Pintos, Pintos use a double wishbone front suspension. The Mustang/Cougar, Comet/Maverick are on the Falcon platform. The Malibu is not a Chevelle SS, although they're effectively the same car as a Chevelle, same with the LeMans. The GTO was based on the LeMans(it was based on the Tempest first), it has its own VIN.
By modern standards, a GNX would be a muscle car, by the original standard, which is mostly held by the Muscle Car Club of America; it is not, it's not a V8, it's engine is less than five(5) liters[being a 3.8], and it makes less than 300hp. The Sy/Ty makes more hp, honestly. And going by your jaded definition of "largest possible motor", it's not even close to the largest possible motor you can put in a G body, it's a v6, and not even the biggest v6, turbo or not.
Again... I'm talking about the ORIGINAL DEFINITION, not the modern lasse faire definition that car people use, because they're so lackadaisy with everything. Also I see the irony of calling the GNX a muscle car, and not any of the turbo dodges. The GNX and Omni GLHS were two of the fastest cars of their time. That Omni would give a 350 Camaro a run for its money. The Mustang Cobra of 79-80 made 139hp to the GTs 140.
@@ItsDaJax Really last time I checked a Camaro was based on a Nova. Heck a 3rd Gen F body is pretty much a Monza platform revised. A Mustang a Falcon, then Pinto then Fairmont as the Foxbody. Barricuda a Valiant. So McFly learn what a compact is!!! So yes Ponycars were small sporty cars based on compacts. As for full size. Last time I checked early muscle cars such as 55 to 57 300. 60's Impala SS. Heck 94 to 96 Impala SS. Early 60"s Fury and Polaras. So before you spout off get your facts and learn your muscle car history.
Narrator claims that the "Challenger" had bland exterior colors. While the video is filming one that is neon orange. A moment later he is stating that the interiors were boring. Just as the video is recording an interior that has plaid seat fabric; even plaid fabric door panel inserts. Nicely intergrated console for that era. Also, camera is showing full gauge cluster while he is saying that the dash is dull. What the effect???
Aw hell no, daytona and avenger were some of the best looking american cars on the road
I know this video has a lot of errors and there was no Stealth out when the 1984-88 Daytona were out. , i had a 86 Laser XTturbo red like the ones in this subjective video back in 2000-01. My sister had a 98 Avenger es top line model in mint condition in 2005 I never heard anybody call the Avenger ugly.
I don’t know about anyone else, but when I hear the words “Dodge” and “Daytona” I think of the 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. You know, the Dodge car with the absolutely gigantic spoiler?
That still has nothing to do with the looks of the car which is what the list was supposed to be about. Besides if you cant tell the difference between a charger and a daytona due to the name, there's bigger things to worry about lmao
@@AWizardAndaMouse3432 yea, the only real daytona is the 69 charger daytona
The 1978 Dodge Challenger was in fact, an import made by Mitsubishi of Japan.
“One nine hundred dollars”?
Your A.I. voice needs training. 😂
im taking what AI to says with a whole bag of salt.
Lol 😄👍!!
The 1978 Challenger was not ugly! It was a Mitsubishi and Plymouth shared the body style called Sapporo. I don't like the looks of the 1982 Charger or the 1962 Dodge.
Not an ugly vehicle in the bunch! They each represent their time in history and reflect the designs and trends at that time. I would gladly drive any of those beauties.
I used to own a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T with a 440 4 speed with a Dana equipped rear end. I also used to own a 1989 Dodge Daytona Shelby Z. I hopped both of them up a bit but they were in a category of there own. Yes they could both put rubber down but my Daytona ripped the mounting brackets rite out of the uni-body. My 68 would just twist the whole car, but what a lot of people don,t understand. You need an equal balance of torque & horsepower. My 68 was heavy so I needed torque to get off the line. My 89 had what they called turbo lag & it was front wheel drive.Traditional muscle cars are rear wheel drive ! 🤔
I am surprised that you forgot to mention the Dodge Neon in this video.
The Avenger was on the same platform as the Plymouth Laser, Eagle Talon, the Eclipse platform, so it wasn't that bad other than being fwd.
Wait, there’s a Plymouth car called the Plymouth Eclipse? You have my attention.
@@AWizardAndaMouse3432 Plymouth Laser...
@@ItsDaJax huh?
The twin to the challenger was the Plymouth Sapporo. But dodge deserves credit for bringing the Omni GLH. Also Chrysler had the Shelby csx t through thrifty car rental.
The Magnum was great with a hemi V8.
62 dodge dart? Its beautiful.
The magnum is not considered ugly
No kidding. You get that thing tricked out with a nice wrap, she’s freaking beautiful.
The late 70s through the 80s weren’t great for Muscle/Pony Car monikers. With all the emissions BS, the cars were neutered and weren’t performance vehicles.
I love the 68 or 69 dart the 68 to 70 charger. Also, road runners are basically the 67 to 73 or so cuda basically all 67 to 74 muscle cars, ford Chevy , dodge .
The 62 dart was great and 153000 was a high number of production they only made 96000 68 chargers
The dodge intrepid R.T should have just been the nascar race one it a shame since the made a go one with nascar in 1969 so yea
The Stealth wasn't even available when the Daytonas came out in '84 . The Stealth wasn't available ( basically a rebadged 3000gt) until '91 . So, not sure how you get that it was released as an affordable option to the Stealth. Not to mention the '85 Daytona Turbo Z was the best looking American sports car out that year, and one of the most popular.
I think at the end of the Cannonball Run 2 Frank Sinatra drives a Shelby Charger.
Dodge Daytona Turbo Z
Lord, deliver me from these horrible AI vids!
Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth always had to take design risks as the smallest of the Detroit 3. And also their bean counters advised them to cut corners in manufacturing in order to make Wall Street happy. This resulted in a company that always lagged Ford and GM in reliability and build quality (who had their own problems when competing along those lines with the Japanese) Sometimes their design risks paid off like the LH models in the 1990s and the 1993 Dodge Ram but many times their cars looked awkward and ugly.
Ok, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Calling the magnum ugly is just heresy all the way around. In all honesty, half of these models looked really good. Only a few really looked ugly.
This video clearly wasn't made by anyone who knows about cars especially muscle cars since most aren't.
This video is a failed AI presentation .
Honestly most of these are just what cars looked like in the 80s. Why focus on a few eye-soars instead of just cutting the crap: the whole decade was shit.
There are no Mopar muscle cars with less than 8 cylinders. As for ugly cars the K Cars should have been emphasized.
New car like unlocked: Dodge Shadow. Obviously, painted all black.
They need to put AI labels on these videos so you can skip them without actually clicking on them to find out.
Early Exner Mopar's were REALLY ugly.
This has to be one person's opinion cause the Shelby charger and Daytona are great
i like challenger. horsepower numbers weren't smaller it was net instead gross horsepower.
Hey they are way more attractive then the plastic stuff u would see today on the Market
Gee.I wonder 🤔 what the Dodge Brothers are doing above?
The late Challenger wasnt really a muscle car anymore. It was more of a coupe that tried to be sporty. Didnt they make that Challenger in a tine when Dodge/chrysler shared platforms and parts with Mitsubishi?
Yes totally correct.... i thought the interior on the challenger was nice though i you can see they kept the dash cluster style and the shape of the seats actually a evolution of the 1970-74. And yes they did have Mitsubishi/dodge parts.
@@artax7438 Zero Dodge parts on them all Mitsubishi...
Not a muscle car at all,nobody knows what a muscle car is fact is only a handful of cars people call muscle cars are muscle cars..
these challengers were made in Japan by Mitsubishi. i had one. it drove nice, was comfortable & very reliable. if looks matter is this considered a 3rd class ride? i will take a third class ride over a first class walk.
What is wrong with the person that made this video ????
This had to be put together by a boomer . I don’t find the 82 charger , Shelby csx , the Shelby charger , Daytona , or the rampage to be ugly cars . At least the weren’t freaking brougham’s like those ugly Cadillacs of the 80’s.
Especially 89 csx
Millennials put this together as they dont understand what the 80's cars were...Most boomers bought these Turbo Dodge's new in the 80's and kept a old car for weekend use.
Neither boomer or millennial. Watch again and listen to all the repeated narrative. Definitely an AI composition.
10:28. Referenced the other Charger but shows an overlay of the Dodge Shadow. Oops. This video just has too many mistakes. Thumbs down.
Dodge avengers where bad ass along with the magnum love the v8 wagon pretty sick car and the intrepid R/T are all cool that and the dodge stealth are sweet to
Pretty much better looking than the 💩 boxes built today.
The early 70's challenger and chargers were the best, the only one's I like
my first car was 84 dodge daytona and i had a 85 turbo z and 91 shelby z those was not ugly cars imo..and they was not muscle cars
This has to be about the dumbest video I've ever seen. The title says ugly cars and all he talks about his performance, of cars that were better looking at the time, then the competition.
Sorry
62 Dart looks awesome
not only did they face stringent emission regulations. they had corporate average fuel economy (c.a.f.e.). standards. we used to sell humdreds of new diplomat police cars under a state contract. there were no concessions or exemption. the standards were federal. to make sure there is no way to abuse. violations were costly. e.g. Volkswagen was forced to spend billions over the buy back of its diesel engine/emissions disaster.
Some of these videos are just awful
1:50 ill give you will smiths’s slap
9:23. it's "alter ego." Only use words and phrases you actually know.
It’s an A.I. video, it hasn’t reached its full Terminator Austrian accent narration yet. 😅
4:35 those ugly rear tail lights,why so many!!!!
66-67 dodge chargers i hated
Daytona,Lancer,Charger,Omni and Shadow of the 80's were not ugly!!
Did you see what Honda,Toyota,Nissan made in the 80's every car they made in their class were uglier and drove worse..Ditto with Ford and GM!!! I worked at a lot in my early teens and drove them all,huge late model car dealer every make/model..
Furthermore Muscle cars were not front wheel drive or non high performance V8 cars...basically after 1974 there were no muscle cars..Also,muscle car were only mid sized lower cost cars not the higher trim level cars!
I like the '86 Ford Taurus and Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham tho.
* don't recommend channel
Dodge did have some ugly muscle cars back in the day.
Everyone did..Imports and Ford/GM also made more uglier cars.
@@MikeekiM-vh5se I haven't seen many ugly 60's GM cars. Maybe 70's and 80's. Mopar had ugly cars in the 60's.
Wow no Chevrolet camaro with It's 87 horsepower lol 😂!!
I agree that Dodge released there share ugly cars over the years, and to me these were the exceptions....70-71 Dodge Challenger, 71-72 Demon 340, 69 A12 Super Bee and legend 68 Hemi Dart.
Ford made as many ugly cars ditto with GM but every import brand made 100 times uglier cars...
I buy/sell/collect classic cars mainly Mopar but own a few Ford products in my collection.I dont really like any Mustang besides 69-73 but have a 70 Torino 429 SCJ(owned since 1992 was cheap then and car is a like new original too nice to ever sell)..Also own a 65 Mercury Monterey 2 door bought in 1998 my Dad had like it brand new so I bought one,he started buying new Chrysler products in 1968 and thats where my love for them came in,truly great cars,power,ride,handling,comfort and very well built the 60's to 70's were best of the best..
1.53 IS NOTHING MORE THAN A MITSUBISHI SAPPORO
people ask why i quit working on cars & went in the military the 1978 dodge charger & the gm leader telling me the cars are going to computer run stuff both sent me to military I was broke & no way to get collage until (i was married & i turned that down to ps working on dead people was not real good idea to me) putting people in caskets and 6 foot under too! a undertaker! my computer plan was in the military watch a guy his name MR Gates & his system run a computer it was all wrong! if you had to use it in cars you got to be able to work on it & understand it!
all chrysler and dodge cars were ugly
I'll take ANY of the cars over watching this stupid video again! 💯
Didn't they say, long ago.
If you can't afford a Ford.
Dodge a DoDGE ( CAR). 🤣🤣🤣
Dodge was actually a higher class car than Ford and Chevrolet...Plymouth competed against Ford/Chevy..Dodge was Mercury,Pontiac,Buick and Oldsmobile!
If you couldnt afford a Ford you bought a import,thats how imports became popular in the 70's and 80's they were half price of the lowest priced Dodge!
1 Is The Ugliest Car of the Dodge the Dodge Dart is Really Ugliest the Another 9 cars is the Lemons 🍋 of Dodge Because in the 80s have a lot Of Lemons Cars K Cars,Omni,Rampage,Sundance,the 90s Have The intrepid The 2000s Ha A lot More The intrepid,Avenger,Magnum,Charger,Nitro,Caliber etc...
I hate dodge chevrolete is just so much better in everything, proof me whrong
Can't
Have
Enjoyable
Vehicle
Yet
Only ten. Hahaha
In my opinion all Dodges are Ugly no matter what year. No Dodge in my garage
To this day , the Shelby charger is still cool as hell!…and looks fast sitting still
all GM cars from 80s are pretty. change my mind.
