1995 Chevy Lumina Ran okay except for a bad plug wire. Tended to run hot and leak coolant from around the intake manifold. Developed a habit of not starting when hot, let it cool down and cancel the tow truck. It was white, and the paint peeled all the way down to the bare metal. It had the 3.1l V6, an ancient design that didn't get any better with age.

I had an AMC Gremlin X. X meant you paid extra for the bold decal package and aluminum painted wheels. I had it new and til about 18000 miles. If you slammed on the brakes, the rear axle would violently shudder, the vinyl seats cracked out after about a year, and the paint would wash off in the 25 cent carwash. Puke green metallic!

And, of course, a couple of Chevy Novas. nuff said.
