I enjoy reading those road tests. Funny how fickle some of those editors were. Once they praised cars like this and now most if not all of them shun domestic cars like they're the plague. I do find it funny how that assclown Don Sherman appears to have never even bothered to sit in the CTC with his comment about the boost gauge and tach. Hey dude! The car only made 9 pounds of boost. It had three idiot (Sherman Lites?) lights! One for every 3 pounds of boost made. I bet he thought that stupid little SunPro looking boost gauge they layed on top of the dash of a Saab 99 was his idea of a decent boost gauge.
I have a nice collection of 70's-80's magazines with what seems like a couple of hundred road tests on just the G-Bodies. I can't recall anybody ever writing that any one particular model was a total POS. Sure they had their idiosynchrosies but that's what made every one of them great IMO.
