AMX

1968 – 1970

The AMX was a two-seat muscle coupe built by AMC from 1968 to 1970, based on a shortened Javelin platform. It was the only American-built two-seater of its era besides the Chevrolet Corvette. Top versions used the 390 V8 rated at 315 horsepower (325 in 1970), giving strong performance for a compact, lightweight car. The AMX name later returned as a performance package on other AMC models.
