7. 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

The 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 broke new ground by proving muscle cars could handle as well as they hauled. Built for the SCCA Trans-Am series, it featured a high-revving 302 cubic inch V8 and a suite of suspension upgrades. This potent mix transformed the Z/28 into a car that could carve corners with the best of them, not just dominate in a straight line.
