American Rear Wheel Drive Cars
« on: May 14, 2008, 10:30:13 PM »

What rear wheel drive cars are made by AMerican car manufacturers?  The only one I can think of is the panther.

Yes, the question is asking about any American RWD cars.  If there are many more, the question is to list as many as you can identify.

Do we count ones like the GTO or G8 that are made in Australia and just sold in the US?  Or are we counting anything sold by a domestic?

Off the top of my head, grouping by platform and in recent production, you have....

Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky
Pontiac G8, Chevrolet Camaro (2009), Pontiac GTO (dead)
Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum (dead), Chrysler 300
Cadillac CTS, Cadillac STS
Cadillac XLR, Chevrolet Corvette
Ford Mustang
Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, Mercury Marauder (dead)
Dodge Viper

I took a gander at a pontiac g8 GT today. The outside is okay, the inside is...... very pontiac.

You can't even get Navi in this Model Year. That's silly.

The interior quality is poor; the leather feels like vinyl, and the plastics are of.. unappealing.. quality. I think they did okay for a first MY, although they did have the existing Australian counterpart to base it off of.... Maybe next year will bring a nice refresh, although I doubt it because it would piss off current buyers.

Its the other way around in my mind.  The interior is a match for the Holden counterpart and there's only so much you can expect in quality of materials in a car with a MSRP of $30k that is delivering a V8.  Shame too, the Holden model is far more attractive.  Pontiac's treatment of all their cars is to beat them into submission with the ugly stick.
