I’ve never liked them as cars, but the one I think of as quintessential was the ‘74. :^)
How interesting. I wanted a '70 style "Mako" shark Vette and could not find one in DFW. I found my '74 in Pennsylvania, and it happened to have a factory stock 454. I paid about what a new car costs, and I am thinking it will only go up not down in value.
I’ll take the 74 Porche 911 carrera any day in lime green
