You mean that the customers asked them to build a Vette slower than a Dodge Pick-up?(1978-Little Red Express Wagon).It took Chevy around 50 years to come up with a car that wasn't laughed at abroad.Not to mention,the "protectionary"policies of the 14th floor.Everytime another division would come up with a car with potential to out shine the 'Vette,that car was cancelled.
