I didn't care much of the X body and now I know why if you look at the mechanical issues back then.

GM X platform (1980) - Wikipedia
The front-wheel drive X-body was used by General Motors for compact cars from 1980 to 1985. They were among the first mainstream front-wheel drive models introduced into the North American market and initially saw great sales success. They were an alternative to imported front-wheel drive sedans.

Make thee not light of the Edsel homeboy. It was a car ahead of its time utilizing the technology of the day in the best possible way.
It is a great old Canadian brand that has completely turned to shit and deserves to be on the list.

It was a pretty amazing car actually.
