  3. The Challenger's combination of retro styling, modern features, and Hemi V8s make it arguably the most badass muscle car we currently have. Even though the original Dodge Challenger was first introduced in 1970, when the muscle car era started its decline, it left an enormous mark on the industry. atlanticvw.com/used-vehicles
