Sometimes, an automaker ends up building a car that raises the bar. Think of models like the Lamborghini Miura. It was first produced in 1966, and ended up being regarded as the first-ever supercar, sparking a rush from other automakers to build their own to compete. Other groundbreaking models, like the Ford Mustang and the Pontiac GTO, were responsible for introducing the pony car and the classic American muscle car, respectively.
