The 20 Greatest American Muscle Cars Get Ranked!

19. 1970 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Ram Air IV

Price at launch: $4,906 Value at the Moment: $150-$200 Perhaps it comes as no surprise that it was initially utilized as a display car after taking a short look at that picture. The sporty coupe had a distinguishing stripe on its hood and a smooth, streamlined finish that made a statement. However, the interior of the 1970 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Ram Air IV was equally remarkable.

The unique car came with a 400-cubic-inch V8 engine instead of a standard V6 engine, making it as reliable as it was attractive. In fact, Pontiac only made 88 of the model because it was so unique. Perhaps this is why renting one today can set you back a nice coin.
