When it comes to cars, new is almost always better. It’s not hard to understand why as recently introduced vehicles feature the latest technology and the most advanced powertrains.

However, every car isn’t all-new and some models continue to be sold well past their expiration date. That brings us to our question of the day, which outdated cars are still cool?

The poster child of this question is the Dodge Challenger as the model was introduced at the 2008 Chicago Auto Show and received a significant update for the 2015 model year. While interest in coupes and convertibles typically wanes after a few years on the market, the Challenger bucked that trend as sales increased every year from 2008 to 2015, before leveling off at around 65,000 units annually.

QOTD: What Car From The ’80s Or ’90s Would You Daily Drive Today?

U.S. sales unsurprisingly dropped last year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but there’s no denying the Challenger has had a remarkable run. Dodge also deserves a lot of credit for not resting of their laurels as the brand has continued to pump out a string of high-performance variants including the Hellcat and Demon.

The Challenger isn’t the only cool senior citizen as the Chrysler 300 continues to chug along and still look good doing it. However, the model hasn’t shared in the Challenger’s success as sales have been falling every year since 2012. That being said, it’s hard not to have a soft spot for a large, rear-wheel drive sedan that offers a 5.7-liter HEMI V8 pumping out 363 hp (271 kW / 368 PS) and 394 lb-ft (534 Nm) of torque.

Aside from Stellantis, the Lexus GX and Toyota 4Runner are pretty compelling despite their age. The latter starts at a reasonable $37,305 and offers genuine off-road capability as well as numerous variants including a rugged TRD Pro. Of course, it’s age is immediately apparent as soon as you step inside the cabin.

The GX addressed the interior issue with an update for 2022, which saw the SUV outfitted with a modern center stack and an all-new 10.3-inch infotainment system. The Lexus is also notable for featuring a V8, however its output of 301 hp (224 kW / 305 PS) and 329 lb-ft (446 Nm) of torque isn’t too impressive these days.
