It can’t be helped that we see all muscle cars through a performance mindset. That’s the original marketing we remember that created our first impressions. The bigger the engine, the more carbs, the bolder the graphics— the more we dreamed about, desired, and coveted the high-performance versions. The factory used performance to sell, and we are still reaping the benefits of that strategy all these decades later.

But we also bought into a fantasy of sorts, and that is that these cars were designed with nothing but performance in mind. Truth is, Chrysler didn’t make its real profits off of fanatical gear heads that were willing to spend a month’s wages chasing another tenth of a second at the track. They earned their keep selling daily drivers to the masses who mostly only cared about the purchase price and the overall economy of getting around town.
