The GM X-Body cars, like the Chevy Citation, were the right cars at the right time....
But so horribly executed they were off the market a few years later, buried beneath a flood of recalls and bad reliability.
This is their story, and my thoughts on how the X-Body program set the template that would plague GM for decades, of not being able to get it all right, at the same time... and ultimately leading to their bankruptcy in the Great Recession.
