Expensive: Plymouth Superbird

The Plymouth Superbird is a dream car. Literally. It looks like the sort of thing that could only have been conceived in dreamland. Take a look at that vast wing and tell me that it would be made today. It just wouldn’t, you don’t get that kind of thing on the Bugatti Chiron. If you’ve ever longed for a Superbird, I’m afraid you’ll likely have to keep longing. These cars made quite the impact back in the day. In NASCAR, they saw the 200 mph barrier and smashed straight through it.

Sadly for Plymouth, consumers back then thought that the Superbird was too extreme. Crazy, I know. They wanted more conventional muscle cars. Most of the 1920 Superbirds built sat unused and unloved on lots across the country. Some were converted back into Road Runners, and sold that way, which is a crying shame. Knowing that sales figures were low, you can perhaps take a guess at how much they cost these days. Superbirds sell for $150K and up, with many reaching prices north of $200K.
