GM shot themselves in the foot soooooooooooo bad during the '80's that the bad taste lingers for a long taste. Some of the examples were the 4100 V/8 in the Cadillac's, the 8-6-4 mess, the Iron Duke 4 that leaked oil, caused fires in the Fiero, all the rack and pinion steering boxes that binded up, the 2.8 & 3.1 V/6 with the intake manifold leaks and much more. Look at the styling of the 4 dr sedans, a rolling shoe box on wheels. Then there was the Cadillac Cimmeron that became the world's most expensive Cavalier. Lets not forget the BIGGEST FARCE of the ALLLLLL, the DIESEL 350!!!
