I mean why did they not talk about the Vette in the 80's that was a dog as well. I mean even the super car's of that time were not fast by todays standards.

Wimpiest muscle cars? Only a few cars on this list were even muscle cars at one point...IMHO, there were NO muscle cars built in the 1980s. How did all these front-drive econoboxes make the list?

I think this list should have been retitled "worst late 70s and 80s cars" and left the 3rd gen and DeLorean out. Half these cars I haven't even heard of...Dodge Mirada? I always thought those were 2 door Fairmonts! Also I had no idea that they plastered the Road Runner name on those ugly japjunker late 70s Plymouths, and have never heard of a "Monza Mirage".
