You have to take things for face value. In the '80s there weren't many cars in that price range that could handle like they could. Maybe they're not legendary by todays standards but they fit the bill at the time.

By comparison there isn't a single muscle car by any maker that ran ETs that are amazing by todays standards, but people still make a big deal out of it.
