Certainly the Ford Model T would make the top 5 list of most important cars ever built. It made the automobile affordable for the average American.

   Willys Jeep
2. Ford Bronco
   Chevrolet Blazer

2. Volkswagen Beetle
   DeLorean DMC-12

Has there ever been a car more iconic than the Volkswagen Beetle? Or a car produced for a period of 80 years like the Beetle was? No, there probably hasn’t been and never will be. A true classic!

   Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
2. Pontiac GTO
   DeLorean, DMC-12

The dream of John DeLorean, the DMC-12 had its 5 minutes of fame thanks to the "Back to the Future" movies. It remained a terrible car with sluggish performance and was only produced for a year before the company went bankrupt.

   2018 Ford Mustang
2. 2018 Chevrolet Corvette
   DeLorean DMC-12

Equus Bass 770 - A modern '60s throwback, this muscle car takes design features from all the classics and packages them together with a 6.4-liter V8 LS9 engine from General Motors which produces 640 brake horsepower. It will set you back a cool $250,000, however.

   Ferrari 312T

2. Stutz Bearcat
   Oldsmobile Curved Dash

Considered the first sports car built by an American company, the Bearcat, introduced in 1914, had a four-cylinder 60 brake horsepower engine. Although by today’s standards that may seem like nothing, in 1914 the Bearcat was the fastest thing on four wheels.

1. Audi R8
   BMW i8
2. Zenvo TS1 GT
   Aston Martin DB9

With an engine that pushes out 1.163 brake horsepower, it is easy to see why any car nut with the cash wants to bay a Zenvo TS1 GT (despite its silly name). Powered by a 5.8-liter V8 engine with not one but two superchargers, the TS1 will cost around $1.2 million.

1. Stutz Bearcat
   Rolls Royce 15 hp

2. Packard Twelve Sport Phaeton

1. Pontiac GTO
   Ford Mustang
2. Hudson Hornet
   AMC Gremlin

AMC Gremlin - Voted by Time Magazine as one of the 50 Worst Cars of All Time, the Germlin was ugly. Essentialy a shortened AMC Hornet, the Gremlin used vacuum-operated wipers, didn't have disc brakes or use radial tires. It wasn't very well received.

2. Williams FW14B

1. Ferrari F40
   W Motors Lykan Hypersport
2. Aston Martin DB7
   Porsche 911

It does 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds. It has a top speed of 245 mph at a cost of $3.4 million. But it's got a really silly name!

1. Porsche 911
   BMW 3 Series
2. Aston Martin DB5
   Lotus Esprit

Other than the fact that it is the quintessential Bond car, the Aston Martin DB5 certainly is a classic! This luxury grand tourer was only produced between 1963 and 1965 with little over 1,000 made. It was available as a hardtop and as a convertible.

1. Pontiac GTO
   Chevrolet Corvair
2. Ford Mustang Mach 1
   AMC AMX

The Corvair's main claim to fame is that it was the only passenger car in the United States to be powered by an air-cooled, rear-mounted engine. This did change the vehicle's handling somewhat and lead to some controversy. The Corvair was produced between 1960 and 1969.

   Peel P50
2. BMW Isetta
   Fiat 500

Who doesn’t love the Fiat 500. No, we not talking about the modern one but the first model, released in the 1950s. This car took Europe by storm and it's not difficult to understand why. Small, cheap and certainly cute, 500s from that era remain in demand today.

   Ford GT40
2. Ferrari Dino

   Ford Model T Runabout

What happens when you combine a pickup with a 4.3-liter turbocharged V-6? A Syclone, that's what. With its all-wheel drive, the Syclone was faster than many sports cars of the time and easily raced to 60mph from a standing start in under 5 seconds.

1. Chevrolet Belair
   Ford Fairlane
2. Hudson Hawk
   Cadillac Eldorado

Early NASCAR racing saw drivers using stock vehicles, hence the term stock car. The Hudson Hornet was so dominant that if you were not driving one, you didn't stand a chance of a NASCAR win, no matter how talented a driver you were.

1. Hummer H1
   Ford Bronco
2. Chevrolet Blazer
   Jeep Cherokee

A civilian version of the Humvee military vehicle, the Hummer H1 would then obviously be more than capable as an off-roader. And it is, but with limitations. In fact, some H1 owners went as far as changing out the standard 6.5-liter diesel engine and replacing it with something to provide more speed. Another disadvantage is that the H1 is a massive vehicle. You need a large open off-road track for this behemoth.

1. Lamborghini Gallardo
   Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita
2. McLaren P1
   Ferrari F50

Only two Koenigsegg CCXR Trevitas were made, with boxer Floyd Mayweather owning one of them. It cost him $4.8 million.

1. Ford Fiesta
   Opel Adam
2. Nissan Leaf
   Saturn S Series

An all-electric vehicle, the Nissan Leaf went into production in 2010. Of course, perhaps the most important thing with such a car is the range. Today, a fully charged Leaf has a range of 107 miles with the larger 30 kWh battery. Perhaps more importantly, a flat battery can be charged to 80% within a mere 30 minutes. This is the best-selling electric car in the world.

1. Ferrari GTO
   Porsche 911
2. BMW 5 Series
   Mercedes 300 SL

A true classic from the '50s, the 300 SL started life as a racing car in 1952 but soon became a production car in 1954 as a two-door coupe. The 300 SL became instantly recognizable thanks to its gullwing doors. Just over 3,200 of the coupe and roadster were built up until 1963.

2. Mercedes F1 W07 Hybrid
   Red Bull RB9

   Chrysler Turbine
2. Pontiac GTO
   Ford Mustang Boss

1. De Tomaso Pantera

2. Lotus Esprit
   Shelby Cobra

The brainchild of Carroll Shelby, the Cobra first revved in anger in 1962. Based on a lightweight body that he imported from the AC Cars, Shelby bolted a Ford 260 engine to it. And the rest is history! In the years that followed, Shelby bolted even bigger engines to the AC frame which brought about a car with nimble handling and lots and lots of power.
