The Gremlin with a 304 v-8 and a standard tranny was a very quick car.

I agree on the Aztec and Matador. The Matador they have pictured I have always thought was one of the worst looking cars ever. And I remember most of them the trim started falling off about 10,000 mi

The Pinto was not that bad looking. Just a shrunk Maverick which was a shrunk Mustang. I had a 79 Station Wagon. Blue with wire wheel covers and it was a nice car for it’s cost and era. Slept in the back many times on road trips. But then I have a soft spot for 2 door station wagons.

I am actually looking at a Ford Flex for my next vehicle I like the looks of them. Now that nobody likes Station wagons anymore I kind of want one. Bad fuel economy though.

And the Thing was a 70’s VW product, not 60’s The article say’s 60’s, unless it was available in Germany earlier. IN the US it was definitely 70’s

And lastly, I agree on the ugliness of the newer Lexus’s. Would never own or want one. Ewww..

Has anyone noticed that he seems to have something against hatchbacks?
