^I always thought Lark Voorhees aka Lisa Turtle was the hottest of them all.

But the Toyota, Nissan thing you wrote, I disagree with. I don't think Japanese cars ever suffered a POS car reputation in the U.S. I think their windfall was the 1970s oil crisis when people drove 8 mpg Detroit metal, and when gas prices were like 40 cents a gallon or something. Then the oil crisis happened, people with certain numbers or letters in their license plates go to visit gas stations on certain days. People in Detroit literally got baseball bats and smashed Toyotas and Hondas, blaming them for being laid off the plants...Hyundai's windfall on the other hand was due to the financial crisis i.e. 2008.
