1: 1974 Plymouth Fury II

Plymouth was one of the innovating brands during the original muscle car era. So when the Fury was reintroduced during the ’70s things got a little interesting. The styling of the car wasn’t that bad to look at, but performance was lacking. The smog regulations didn’t help and the car was overweight. There were a few interesting aspects to the car such as a luxurious interior.

There were quite a few Plymouth coupes that were released during the period. But, the Fury stood out as it shared its platform with the Chrysler Cordoba. Both cars were overhyped at the time and you’d be better off just passing on one altogether. But don’t let the name “fury” fool you because this car is far from furious on the road.
