AMC Spirit AMX

Introduced in 1978, the AMC Spirit AMX was an actual compact muscle car due to the fact it had an optional 304 V8 engine and rear-wheel drive, and it could be had with manual transmission. AMC designed it as a performance version of the Spirit compact car. On sale for just two years, the Spirit AMX had some success due to the fact it was inexpensive and cool looking. The AMX package included a body kit, special livery, and wide wheels.
