Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z
The IROC-Z Camaro is almost synonymous with the 1980s from its iconic styling to its performance. The Camaro of the 1980s was a completely different beast than anything that had come before it. The styling was modern, and the car was drastically downsized to conform with new CAFE standards (via Hot Cars).
But even with all of its shortcomings, the IROC-Z was a force to reckon with. The high-output 5.0 was a great V8 engine, but it was the 5.7L V8 engine that was even better. The Camaro had a 0-60 mph time of 6.7 seconds.
