A Ford Pinto.

Chevy Vega, a Motor Trend magazine car of the year. Also, most any convertible no matter how sexy.

Jaguars from 1990-2009 (Fords)
Any Nissan/Infiniti, especially their 'Sport or Performance Line'
Also looks like the Corvette C8 is having its problems too. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Corvette+C8+problems&t=h_&ia=web
(Allegedly, UAW members are complaining about the poor quality of
compnents coming from China.)

what production sexy beasts(s) [not racers or concepts] would you not take even for free (not including the probability of resale for something you'd like or hookers and beer)?
Let's stick to 1975 as a cut-off.
Sorry Fritz, you tried.

I would like a Cosworth Vega, even though the tech was very tamed to get it legal for the states. The original idea would have made a very awesome car for the day.

almost forgot - Subaru 360
Widely regarded as the worse car ever brought to the USA, at least until the Yugo showed up. Because it weighed less than 1,000 lbs, it was exempt from safety standards. The 25-hp engine topped out at 60mph, and took over 30-seconds to get there.

I knew a guy who had a Ford Pinto and BF Goodrich tires.
Some of you guys know what a deadly combination that was.
Edit, I think it was actually Firestone 500 radial tires that were recalled because of separation issues.
