There’s a saying in fashion that if you hang onto a wardrobe it will come back in style once again. I guess that means I need to keep my MC Hammer Parachute Pants for a few more years before putting them in the yard sale. We’ve seen bell-bottom jeans come back around and now we’re seeing more cars than ever before built with retro styling to give us a look we remember. These cars that carry the retro style are built with the modern technology of today to make sure we can have the drive we want to experience.
These are the Cars You Want to Drive with a Retro Style
MAT Stratos
This new Stratos model looks a lot like the original that was built several years ago. Once you get beyond the looks, you’ll realize there’s something different and better about what this car brings to the market. This car is based on the Ferrari 430 and it has a V8 engine under the rear to give you the power you want and a fantastic drive on the road.
Honda E Prototype
This car isn’t in production yet, but it’son the way and you can see the style that makes it look like a small Honda hatchback that was part of the lineup many years ago. This will be the car that helps Honda continue to push for electric driving while giving you a style that’s certainly inspired by the models offered in the past.
Chevrolet Camaro
The newest look of the Camaro came to us in 2010 to give you a car that was made to compete with other retro muscle cars. This fifth-generation Camaro has only gotten better over the past few years as the Chevy team has created the fastest muscle car on the market today. This is a car that’s truly a joy to drive while giving you a look back.
Mitsuoka Viewt
Here’s a car that looks like a smaller version of a Jaguar Mk.II sedan, but it’s actually a Japanese Kei car that was built by Mitsuoka. The look is borrowed from Jaguar to give us a style that dates back to the 1950s while being a car that can give you the city drive you want. The tiny 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine makes 78 horsepower, which is plenty for this car.
Mitsuoka Rock Star
It seems a visit to Japan is in order to see the cars from the Mitsuoka brand. This car is also a small model that’s built to resemble the C2 generation of the Corvette Stingray. You can see the body lines offered. Underneath, the ND generation of the Mazda Miata was used to give this car the power and the drive desired on the streets in Japan.
Volkswagen Beetle
The best-selling car ever built is the Beetle and this car lasted in its original form for many years. The Beetle was redesigned but the bulbous shape and look of this car carried forward for the new models to remind us that this car is one that we love to drive and can continue to experience every day.
Plymouth Prowler
While this brand name and the car have been gone for several years, the Prowler was one of the coolest cars ever to head to production. It’s easy to see the retro style that makes this car look like a roadster from the 1940s that could have competed at the nearby drag strip to give you the fun and active ride you wanted to enjoy.
Alpine A110
The new A110 places the engine in the middle, instead of the rear, where the original model had the power offered. This car brings in the same style and cosmetic appeal as the first version to make sure you can have the drive you’re looking for and the quality build and features that make this a car that’s a lot of fun to drive.
BMW Z8
Look at the Z8, do you see the 507 Roadster influence? Even if you didn’t know that’s where it received its influence, you can certainly learn more about the original BMW roadster that has made way for this new model to be one that can be perfect for the drive. This car is quick, powerful, and easy to enjoy on the road or at the track.
