The author of this article couldn’t have said it any better-the K-Car platform consists of some of the many cars ever inflicted upon humanity.
Ditto with the author of this article, and I have to add that the same goes for Ford’s CE14 and D186 platforms, and General Motors’ J, N, Front Wheel Drive H, U, Front Wheel Drive A and its successive W platforms.
Lee Iacocca had wrongfully copied Volkswagen with every K-Car variant ever produced, and Lee Iacocca had also wrongfully copied the T3 Volkswagen Transporter/Vanagon with Chrysler’s own minivans.
For instance, Lee Iacocca haw wrongfully copied the Golf/Jetta/GTI with the Plymouth Reliant/Dodge Aires and their successors-the Plymouth Acclaim/Dodge Spirit, and also with the Plymouth Sundance/Dodge Shadow; had wrongfully copied the Sirocco/Corrado with the Dodge Daytona/Chrysler Laser, had wrongfully copied the 1980’s and early 1990’s Audi 2-door coupe models with the 1986-1995 Chrysler LeBaron 2-door
Coupe and Convertible; and had also wrongfully copied the Audi B3 and C3 platforms with the Dodge Dynasty, Chrysler New Yorker; and early 1990’s Chrysler New Yorker Landau and Fifth-Avenue.
It’s only fitting that this crummy, horrible K-Car be given a proper send off by competing in the so-called “LeMons” race.
