From Wikipedia:

"Since the 1971 Coronet was only available in sedan and station wagon versions, the Super Bee model was moved to the platform used by the Charger. Since an R/T muscle car version of the Charger already existed, the Super Bee was promoted as the low-priced model in the line, selling at USD$3,271. Production numbers of the Super Bee reached 5,054, including 22 with the Hemi engine. The moniker was discontinued until the 2007 Super Bee, a Charger SRT-8.

1971 was the first and only year that a small block engine (340 4-bbl) became available in the Super Bee. Although the 440 Magnum (4-bbl) was not an available option with the Super Bee for the 1971 model, twenty-six are known to have been built."

After seeing a picture of this in the "Standards: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" thread, I realized how much this car deserves to be premium. It is simply too iconic and awesome to remain standard

What a shame that this classic stayed standard and some "Meh" Japanese cars got an upgrade...

Like the Mitsubishi Colt and Scion xA...

They bothered to upgrade those while there are many other cars that are worthy of an upgrade instead of those two I listed.

It's probably because Kaz knows more about Japanese "meh" cars than American muscle machines.
