Number one on that list has to be the Chevy SS. People complained that the Impala was just way too boring and there needed to be a rear-wheel drive one.

This is how Quattoruote rendered it a couple of years ago.

I owned one, and it was coughing up issues at 20,000mls.

It would have to be Italian holy trinity:
