The Rambler Marlin became known as the AMC Marlin starting with the 1966 model year. All references to the historic Rambler brand name were removed from the car and promotional materials. This was part of new president Roy Abernethy's remake of AMC's corporate identity. divorcing the larger car lines from the Rambler brand and the economy compact car image. The other changes were minor (e. g. a slight modification to the extruded aluminum grille. a front sway bar made standard on six-cylinder models. and an optional black vinyl roof cover that continued over the trunk opening). New was an electronic tach on the top of the dash.

The year also saw the introduction of the fastback Dodge Charger. a derivative of the intermediate-sized Dodge Coronet and a sporty model in direct response to the Marlin. The Charger “was immediately paired up in the automotive press with American Motors' year-old Marlin. another fastback specialty machine. ” “The fastback Charger had been introduced in mid-season of 1966 in retaliation to the AMC Marlin. Mustang and Plymouth's Barracuda. ” Together. the intermediate-sized Charger and Marlin were “unusual. distinctive and in a class by themselves. ” General Motors and Ford also positioned products similar to the Marlin as specialized “personal luxury” coupes and introduced two-door fastback versions of their full- and intermediate-sized car lines.

AMC broadened the car's market appeal by lowering the base price to $2. 01 ($19. 02 in 2016 dollars) and offering more options. For example: high-level trim packages that had previously been standard. as well as the availability of a floor or center console mounted four-speed manual transmission and a dash-mounted tachometer. affected small changes in pricing and equipment that paralleled the competition. By comparison. Chrysler did a similar thing with the pricing and content of its Dodge Charger in the 1966 and 1967 model years. Despite these changes. Marlin production fell to 4. 47 in 1966.

A Popular Science magazine road test comparison of three 1966 sporty fastbacks (Ford Mustang. Plymouth Valiant and AMC Rambler) highlighted the Marlin's quiet interior. high-quality upholstery and positioned seats with adjustable backrests that “permit almost any driver to find an ideal seat-to-wheel-to-pedal relationship”. as well as the “best-balanced ride on good roads and bad. ” The 287 CID two-barrel V8 engine with the three-speed automatic achieved 0 to 60 mph in 11. 7 seconds and was the quietest of the group.
