7. Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe
Despite being in production for just two short years, the Aerocoupe is one of the most interesting `80s muscle cars. It was a regular Monte Carlo SS but with a few design tweaks and homologated for NASCAR races. The Aerocoupe option was introduced in 1986 and it featured a panorama-style back window with back spoiler.
The new rear glass provided an almost fastback profile which vastly improved the aerodynamics on NASCAR superspeedway tracks. However, mechanically speaking, the Aerocoupe was identical to the regular SS which meant that the power was provided by a 180 HP 305 V8 engine. The production for 1986 model year was just 200 examples which were enough to homologate the car but for 1987, Chevrolet produced additional 5852 cars.
