        Never forget that Chrysler did the exact same thing with the Grand Cherokee that resulted in deaths and never faced accountability.

      Agree to disagree. I really hate this era of cars. Take a hot hatch, but make it as ugly as you can. Then make it as heavy as possible and slap an 80bhp iron block in there, that way you have the worst of both worlds in both power and fuel economy. But just for good measure, also give it a 3 speed transmission with no overdrive as one last final fuck you, just to make that the car is as slow—and gas mileage is as terrible as allowed by the laws of physics.

      The 70s was by far the worst era for cars, especially American cars.

          Even if I were to agree with you, the beauty of a 70s car is only skin-deep, given everything else that is wrong with them that I already mentioned in my previous comment.

            Yeah, your laughably untrue comment that is pulling facts from some cheap economy cars in an attempt to generalize an entire era. lol

            You can only think 70’s cars are beautiful if you weren’t alive in the 70’s.

            They were UGLY AS FUCK then and now. Just piss poor design in every way.
