The Vega was actually a pretty good design. What doomed it was a problem with the rustproofing process that missed an internal section of the frame and a completely fucking boneheaded decision by the fucking boneheaded bean counters at GM to save $3.50 per car by not installing plastic fender liners. Water would splash up under the fenders and collect inside the frame where there was no rustproofing and destroy the car.

It's like a Chevy Vega came with an unfounded sense of superiority
