These morons saying "the interior is garbage" needs to go back to 1980 and find A car with an interior that isn't garbage. That is very hard to find. Every interior back then was shit and don't act like gm is an exception. Everybody was shit.

Because they know that people don't buy good cars, they just buy what looks good.

GM and the Detroit kikes with no shame has been fucking up Holden every chance they get. Everytime Holden has done something good, or had a chance at becoming better, the Seppo's screamed and shat themselves, and used their gold claws in both our governments to make sure that decent automotive potential wouldn't come in and shit all over the appalling crap pushed out by scummy companies, built by retarded rednecks, and bought by delusional nationalists and idiots who don't know shit about cars.

Holden could have been multinational, and the commodore, monaro, torana, and ute would have been given the treatment they desrved, and sold like hotcakes everywhere else. I guarantee that if holden was allowed to sell v8 ute's and commodores in America without GM interference, they would have sold millions, and suffocated the nigger tier plastic piles of excrement the U.S. market gets wet over.

Americans who try to refute this by saying that commodores are shit is cucked by Goyim Motors. Americans who defend their shitboxes with "muh vette" or "muh irrelevant outdated landbarge" need to fuck up for once.

BTW, gm knew that cunts were wisening up to the crap they were doing with Holden, so they decided to drop their standards and aim for those vulnerable to poor attempts at making a new Commodore :
- middle aged and old fat women who only looked at the most irrelevant shit about the car
- indians, chinks, and the other migrants who desperately want to hide their incompatibility and selfish relationship with the country behind a disgraced badge.
- cucked and brain-dead young people

The cruze represents everything with Americans and cars in the past 40 years.

How cheap? Legit question because I was looking at older muscle cars and most of them that pop up in my price range and aren't total rust heaps are auto ,and I would really prefer a manual
>>
>>15362393
It depends on car, speed, and what type

Boy, you guys don't know what shit cars are. Try maybe the Chevy Vega, Citation, Chevette, Pontiac fiero and any of their sister cars. Any GM car powered by that POS Olds 350 Diesel is shit automaticly shit. Ford Pinto.

>>15362976
I knew that would get a response. The 4 cyl cars were slow parts bin junk. The early cars could turn into nice bbq grills. The V6 the same shit they threw into their midsized cars and the cavalier. I will give them this. The Gt looked good. And a mid engine rear drive car was definitly out of the box thinking for GM. But they were a poor copy of the MR2 and GM was never serious about making them any more than that. They are a car GM dropped the ball on. But that doesn't not make them shit.

Pretty much all cars during the 80's were absolute trash, not just in 'merica. They were cheaply designed, cheaply built and unlike the previous couple of decades did absolutely nothing to hide it or make up for it. We got some exceptions when it came to looks but they were still garbage when you looked under the body.

Today they might seem charming in the same way that a five year old's crayon drawings might be but they're still crap, and even worse they're decaying, decrepit crap.
>>
>>15363102
Yea the worst thing about most of those cars was the engine management. From Ford's craptastic VV carb to Chrysler's Feedback carb shit, The big 3 had a terrible time trying to adapt to the emission and fuel economy requirements at the time.

>no one mentioned turd gen explorers

Also mechanical fuel injection everywhere, which can go either way nowadays

They got much better toward the end of the 80's. But god the computer controlled carbs of the early 80's were rubbish brand new.

They sold the Monao here for 2 years as a rebadged GTO, it died within 2 years. Nobody wanted it, and it was a disgrace to the GTO name. I don't know what the fuck GM was thinking when they decided to do that.

It was trash, just like the rest of GM's lineup around that time.

The last good GM cars of the late 90s and early 2000s were the Saturn SL lines and the Roadmaster/Caprice.

Yes, it is a rebadged Mazda. Same chassis, drivetrain, electronics as the Mazda MX6, which I also like.

Gotta say... I've had eight Probe's and one MX6 over the years, and I just bought another Probe a couple weeks ago. Love em.

Pretty sure it was sold for three years buddy. 04 being the first year, with the ls1. 05 and 06 with the Ls2. 04 also had the single sided exhaust, and no hood scoops.
