Random Best Car Model Redesigns in History (38 items)

• 

  (#1) Fourth-generation Chevrolet Camaro

  • Automobile generation

  The last Camaro model before it became extinct... for a time. 
• 

  (#19) 1969 Pontiac Firebird

  • Automobile Model Year

  The first-gen Firebird.
• 

  (#3) 2000 Aston Martin V8 Coupe

  Yes, this was actually an Aston Martin.
• 

  (#38) Lincoln Continental

  In 1961, Ford downsized everything about the car, including its size, chrome content, gaudiness and, most importantly, price. The 1961 Continental redesign was conceptualized by a little-known artist who'd spent the last few years styling toasters and women's shoes. The result was a slick and comparatively understated cruiser.

  (#8) Maserati Quattroporte

  • Automobile

  Yeah, those 2002 owners should have waited a year. With a name like "Maserati," you would think that nothing but finely crafted pieces of art were being pushed out of their factory. But from 1994 to 2001, the Quattroporte (literally "four door" in Italian) was an almost unmitigated heap of crap. Not even a pair of turbos on either a V-6 or V-8 engine could ward off the seething embarrassment of owning one. Things got better when Ferrari purchased half of Maserati from Fiat in 1997, but it wasn't until 2003 that Maserati finally made a car worthy of its name.

  (#32) 1996 Honda Odyssey

  • Automobile Model Year

  You could call this the birth of soccer moms.
