10. 1970 Plymouth Hemi-Cuda

Current value: $299,000

One of the most amazing vintage cars is the 1970 Plymouth Hemi-Cuda. Building on the successes of the popular Barracuda line, the Hemi Cudas were upgraded to a 426 Hemi engine rated at 425 overall horsepower. The car could go from zero to 60 MPH in just 5.6 seconds when new, and drivers could make a nice burn out without too much effort. The Hemi Cuda was only sold with the 426 engine, while the Barracudas could be purchased with a smaller engine. The car has a manual transmission (four-speed), and it could run the quarter-mile in 13.41 seconds at 105 MPH. There were more than 650 of the autos produced in 1970, and they can still be seen at car shows in very drivable condition today.
