1970 Dodge Charger R/T
Toretto’s Dodge Charger R/T was something special. When fans first saw the car in the garage scene of the original movie, they knew the car had a special meaning for Dom because of his father. The Charger R/T was Dodge’s attempt to gain a following in the muscle car world, and it worked. The Charger became one of the most well-known muscle cars of all time, but it was also quite common. There were millions of these cars sold during its production run, although prices have skyrocketed tremendously today (via Hemmings).
The Dodge Charger R/T wasn’t the most important part of the film franchise or even the original movie, but it told a story about the lead character. With the performance to match its stellar reputation, the Charger R/T was one of the most iconic muscle cars on the road. And for a long period of time, it was also one of the most common muscle cars drivers could get. The modern Charger doesn’t even hold a candle to the car from this generation.
