Of all the decades, the ‘80s has to be the best. It has the best music, the biggest hair and technological advances to eat your heart out. And that’s not even to mention the coolest cars… For the ‘80s was the decade of sharp lines and hard angles, and the resulting motors were nothing short of iconic.
