Default RE: Looks of Muscle Cars - Back in the Day

Just remember there are some cars I wish I could forget......like the Ford Pinto/AMC Pacer, Chevy Vega, etc..

These are were designed so bad sometimes door/glove comparments would not close because of poor design and within a few years they would fall apart.

Japan was trying to penetrate the US market back then and Detroit marketing told them that Americans did keep cars longer than 3 years so they would design them accordingly.
So American cars after 3 years would fall apart.

Fast forward to 2006....has Japan penetrated the US market? How are GM and Ford doing financial in the US.

Pretty sad state of affairs.

I hope the muscle cars will bring back some of the American Car Muscle of fury that we need in the US car industry.
