Dodge Challenger - The Upscale Hemi Muscle Car
The Dodge Challenger was one of the last new muscle cars introduced during the original muscle car era. It was late to the scene when it made it to showrooms in 1970, but it has since been a huge hit with collectors and muscle car aficionados.
As with its cousin, the Plymouth Barracuda, the Challengers that is most-desired by collectors today are those with the 426 Hemi V8 engine. These cars with that engine were expensive when new, and very few were purchased at the time. That's part of the reason they are among the most expensive collector muscle cars today.
The Dodge Challenger was featured in the hit movie Vanishing Point, one of the great car movies of all-time.

- Dodge Charger - The Big American Muscle Car
- The Dodge Charger is the epitome of the American muscle car. It's big, it's loud, it's fast. The original Charger was sold from 1966 until 1978. It was revived as a front wheel drive compact car in the 1980's, and then again as a return to its roots in 2006. Let's just forget that the 80's L-body Ch
- Plymouth Barracuda
- The Plymouth Barracuda started out as a simple A-body in 1964, but by the time it was switched over to an E-body for 1970 it was one of the most powerful muscle cars on the road.

Dodge Challenger in Vanishing Point (1971)
Challenger New vs. Old: Vanishing Point Revisited
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Features/articleId=126092 "Our sole Challenger has just broken the ring of evil the deep blue meanies have so righteously wrought — get through 'em baby, get through 'em." — Super Soul, Vanishing Point 1971 It happens deep in the Nevada desert, just past Austin. On a long, straight section of road with nothing to lose, our friends in the white 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T finally put the hammer down. At once, the rawness and purity of Kowalski's ride pulverizes the well-insulated interior of our 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8, shredding the peace inside the modern car's cockpit with the same brute force Kowalski used to pierce a hole in the cool desert air 38 years ago. Even with my right foot buried, I see nothing but taillights until they disappear into the desert. In these few brief seconds, the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is clearly defined by its soft edges and quiet exhaust. Manufacturers don't let us feel cars raw and unfiltered anymore. Hammering down a desert road with a thin-rimmed steering wheel and pistol-grip shifter — that's raw. Four hundred and forty cubic inches and a four-speed — that's raw. Powerslides unhampered by electronic intervention — that's raw. In 1970, when Kowalski drove this very road — U.S. Highway 50 through Nevada — he felt it. And it was raw.
