I think you’re wrong. In a recent lunch table chat among co-workers about next cars they want, they (about 8 people) unanimously called the Outback a wagon. All but the person who suggested it scoffed at it because they wanted a CUV. They draw a distinction between the Outback and CUVs, despite Subaru’s advertising.

Maybe so, but it won’t be the ugliest

Eh... I was too harsh with "terrible". There were a few spots where it could use some editing, but "terrible" is too strong a word.

Same for the first Tundra. I’d like to see Toyota reel it back on the full-size wars and move toward 3/4ths- or 7/8ths-sized trucks...and at a price that is appreciably/commensurately lower than the full-size segment (yet still above the Tacoma, which I recognize is a small gap.) One can wish...

My bad - it was a complete thought in my head, but now I see it doesn’t look right.

“Truckosexuals”?

Neutral: fuel economy doesn’t make it attractive. No sale. I’m going to Ram.

Because a buyer profile is what I’m referring to.

How's its initial quality?

The Datsun looks best. 

I was expecting quite the opposite feedback. The writing is terrible.

I just figured some of these things, like the magic stick (or whatever it’s called), were influenced by the Chevette’s connection to Opel.

They forgot "Cheapest 'Vette" as a selling point. 

We need a wrangler here. This is out of control. 

Nah, your point still ignores the M3 and M5 that existed long before 1999, unless your definition excludes them as enthusiast cars. 

The last couple decades” is 1999-2019. There were M cars long before 1999. Do you not count the M1? Or the 507? Or the 3200CS? 

I’m not sure I follow. Are they wrong? Are YouTube videos ineffective at teaching concepts? Couldn't you create your own series of videos?

My 1980s GM buy would have to be from as late in the 1980s as possible. I’d choose the 1989 Olds Cutlass Supreme FE3. I appreciated that design above GM’s other work, even if it wasn’t the greatest at anything.

Same build quality as new.

This is one of the better aspects about the Bourne series and, to a lesser extent, Craig’s version of a conflicted Bond. There wasn’t any of the pretentious stuff like flashy cars (in the Bourne series) or misogynistic crap (Bond) that became synonymous with Bond.
