They should have included the 1981 Cadillac Seville. It was available with three very exciting engine choices- the unreliable and underpowered V8-6-4, the unreliable, underpowered, and noisy Olds 5.7 Diesel, and the brand new, next-generation, unreliable and underpowered "4100" V8! As a bonus, it was fugly.

And I've said it a million times on CF, but i don't think i've said it here yet- when I was shopping small cars in 2001, I bought a Neon- it had far more features for the money than the Civic, and felt like a luxury car next to the Sentra. Except for recurring problems with the sunroof (shouldn't have let the stealership talk us into taking a sunroof car), it did just fine for 80k until it got caught in a flooded street. We'd probably still have it otherwise.
