“The last four muscle cars GM made reviewed well - and were total flops in the marketplace.”

I can’t think how many times I’ve seen a new car design and thought, “Now, why the hell can’t Detroit do that?”

Because when Detroit (and especially GM) does it, they always add major fail to the equation. They never actually engineer the car completely properly. They may fix the problems or finish the job a few years later, but then the car is immediately cancelled due to lack of sales.

In case you were wondering which cars I was referring to:
1. Chevrolet Caprice PPV
2. Chevrolet SS
3. Pontiac G8 GT
4. Pontiac GTO (04-06)
