Watching These Retro Supercars Will Make You Long For The 80s

Eesh. I remember those days, cars were NOT reliable and everyone broke down at a one time or another, even Hondas and Toyotas but the Italian cars were a class apart. There were a few FIATs (126, 128, 128 3p) here and they were all beached in a snowbank during the winter, they also rusted in real time visible to the naked eye. Then we had Lada, Skoda, Yugo and Innocentis...

We've come a long way in cars.

That Ferrari with 270HP and 0/60MPH @ 6.8s seems ridiculous by today's standard.

I have no regrets though, today's "enthousiast" entry level sportscar > most 1980s supercars with few exceptions like the Diablo, Countach, etc.

Unless you're a collector, in which case it's justified.

In general 80s supercars were pretty crappy but the Porsche 959 was a work of art.

lol @ 17:00 . I almost forgot about the Jalpa

un v6 chrysler Pentastar dans un Dodge Caravan en 2015 produit plus de Hps qu'une Ferrari de cette epoque

Peut etre plus crappy, peut etre pas + ou - 500hp comme les super cars d'ajd,
mais étant jeune ca nous fesait tripper !!!!

Moi c'est elle qui me fesait tripper et avoir du ca$h de lousse et plus de place dans le garage j'en aurais une.

Ferrari Testarossa

80's car might not have been as reliable, but one thing they were, was beautiful. IMO the 80's- early early 90's was the apex of car designing. Pop up headlights, "futuristic" styling. Car back then looked like they came straight out of comic books.


















I can go on for dayssssss. The 80's> Everything*





*does not include reliability

The 959 and F40 were basically the 918 and LaFerrari of their day.
