my 1986 'Vette ... boiuight brand new.

This thing could not go uphill if the radio was on, and couldn't get above 55 if the air conditioner was on. It couldn't handle in snow. I think she (her name was Babette) had a crush on the service manager because she was in the shop every other week with transmission problems. Smartest thing I ever did was buy the extended warranty when I bought the car, otherwise I would have been in the poorhouse after a few months.

This car was truly a lemon, but for some reason, even with a lawyer father, didn't qualify under the lemon laws for the state of New Jersey.

This car was great in an accident though, I was going thru a green light, and some bozo ran a red light and hit me broadside-- car still drove, it shimmied but it drove...

Damn piece of crap... than god they discontinued them... Chevettes sucked the big one.. Now my '91 Celica that was a honey, so was the '70 Opel GT that I drove thru high school and college.. dream car...
