The E58-code 360 V8 was the hottest engine Chrysler offered in the 1980 Cordoba — and almost nobody bought it: fewer than 100 were ordered before it was quietly dropped.
The second-gen Cordoba's biggest engine, a 360-cubic-inch V8, found so few takers — fewer than 100 orders — that Chrysler dropped it after a single model year.
The 1979 Cordoba 300's white paint and 300-style grille looked like a trim package -- but Chrysler insisted on marketing it as its own standalone model, never as a "Cordoba 300."
The Cordoba almost wore a Plymouth badge: Chrysler drew it up as the Sebring before moving it upmarket to cash in on personal-luxury margins.
Cordoba wasn't always its own car. In 1970 it was just a one-year appearance package on the Chrysler Newport, five years before "Cordoba" became a model of its own.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
The Celica XX, Japan's name for the A60 Supra, introduced the world's first in-car navigation computer.
The CTR Anniversary looks like a 911 but Ruf built its carbon monocoque from scratch, no Porsche body underneath.
The 228's coupe styling hides a sedan underneath: Maserati stretched it onto the longer four-door Biturbo chassis to make room for its biggest V6, which is literally where the name comes from — 2-door, 2.8 litre.
Switching to fuel injection let this V8 finally shed its trademark bonnet bulge — and only 405 of these flat-hooded Series 5 cars were built before the whole model retired in 1989.
Japanese buyers got a secret weapon in their MX-6 — the JDM-only KL-ZE V6 made about 40 more horsepower than the engine sold in the exact same car in North America.
An American tuner, Callaway Cars, built twin-turbo conversions of the GTV6 that boosted its V6 by fifty percent to 230 hp — turning Alfa's grand tourer into something far quicker than the factory ever intended.
