1976 Plymouth Volare Road Runner

What was Plymouth thinking when they attached the “Road Runner” moniker to the 1970 Plymouth Volare? You have to understand (apparently Plymouth didn’t) that the Road Runner is one of the most iconic muscle cars ever. Few names conjure up “performance” like the Road Runner. Yet the 1970 Plymouth Volare Road Runner would get dusted by a modern Honda Civic, taking more than 10 seconds to hit 60 miles per hour. The Volare was a decent car for the late 1970s but certainly never earned the Road Runner name and was a poor performer by muscle car standards.
