I love it when I see a video game car listed with a 1970s production year, I think for just an instant they've included a hilarious shitmobile for the laughs, then realize, no, the Dodge Challenger was a pretty serious muscle car.

I was racking my brain for some crappy models in that lede. Which motorized trashcan would you most want to drive in a video game?
