Pontiac Grand Prix

First appeared in 1962 as a full sized two door coupe, similar to the Bonneville. In 1969 it was moved to the mid-sized chassis shared with Chevy's Monte Carlo. Was given a re-style in 1973. Many would agree that 1962-1977 were the most stylish years for this personal luxury coupe. But it was down sized in 1978 to a boxy generic design which continued till 1988. Thats when the Grand Prix was redesigned as a Front Wheel Drive aero jelly bean on wheels. 4 Door models were offered, due to the declining popularity of personal luxury coupes. The Grand Prix lost it's uniqueness and was just another boring GM sedan. It was redesigned in 1997, and 2004, but still continued the same look until the Pontiac name was axed in 2009.
I don't know what GM were thinking in the 80's, but they turned the cool Pontiac Grand Prix into a boring crap box that looked the same as all their other cars.

Honda

A Jap brand of cars that arrived in the USA around 1970. Every model of car they have made has been a small boring crap box designed to get people from point A to Point B. Economy is the main factor. No outside styling is considered, as all Hondas look the same.
I cannot understand why everybody loves Honda, they are a total buzz kill, and all their cars are boring pieces of crap.

Imperial

An underated car made by Chrysler Co. First appeared in the 20's. In the late 50's, it was sold as it's own model to compete with Cadillac and Lincoln. It failed though, due to obvious reasons. There was no seperate "Imperial" dealership. Imperials were sold in Chrysler dealerships, and customers thought of them as a higher priced Chrysler with a different badge. Poor quality was another factor, as they had rust and mechanical problems. By 1964, the Imperial ditched it's outdated rust prone 50's style for the nicer boxy look similar to the Lincoln Continental. This body style was used in the 2011 movie "The Green Hornet". 1964-1968 were probably the best years for the make. 1969-1973 models were quite impressive looking too, with huge grills, and a sleek fuselage bodystyle. 1974 introduced an even bigger body style that came out at the wrong time. With the gas crisis in full swing, Chrysler decided not to waste anymore time on an already failing marque. So the last Imperial was made in 1975.

Several attempts to resurect the name have happened, what with the 1981-1983 bustle back coupe that nobody liked. And the 1990-1993 boring small 4 door sedan that looked like all other Chrysler cars at the time.
Max: I just saw "The Green Hornet" at the movie theatre. Dude....that black car was fuckin' awesome. What was it, a Lincoln??
Pat: It was a 1964 Imperial Crown. The Black Beauty...One bad ass ride!

AMC Eagle

The rusty old stationwagon you see outside abandoned gas stations in redneckville USA, haha!!

No seriously, it's a unique 4WD car made from 1980-1988. Availabe in coupe, sedan, and wagon which was the most popular. Has the same 70's body style as the AMC Hornet, which is why it was dubbed uncool throughout it's life. Now days you rarely see any in good condition, as rust was a huge problem on these cars.
Everytime I see an AMC Eagle, it's always a rusty beat to hell junker parked outside of an abandoned business. I guess nobody liked these things.

Ratt

An awesome L.A. Glam Metal band formed around 1983, and popular up until about 1991. The band was made up of:
Stephen Pearcy - Vocals
Bobby Blotzer - Drums
Warren Demartini and Robbin Crosby - Guitars
Juan Croucier - Bass

Through the 80's and early 90's they made awesome albums such as:
Out of the cellar - '84
Invasion of your privacy - '85
Dancing undercover - '86
Reach for the sky - '88
Detonator - '90
Justin: I was listening to "Slip of the lip" by Ratt on youtube. That's some awesome old school metal! Kicks the crap out of anything today.
Mike: Yeah, I love that band! But grunge and alternative had to ruin everything!

Jeep Cherokee

Introduced in 1974 as a full sized V8 suv. It shared the same body style with the Wagoneer, but was less expensive and aimed more to young buyers. The most popular were 2 door models that competed with the Ford Bronco and Chevy Blazer, but a 4 door version was produced.

In 1984 the Cherokee was downsized to a boxier design that would become the birth of the small 4 door SUV. 2 Door models were still produced but lost popularity in the 90's. The Cherokee continued on it's 1984 design until 2001, making it one of the longest produced designs in history. It was only given one face lift in 1997, rounding off the front to make it more 90's looking. In 2002 it was replaced by the all new Jeep Liberty.

Throughout the '84-'01 time span, the Cherokee was offered in many different trims, some which are rare to this day. Chief, Laredo, Pioneer, Limited, Country, Sport, Classic, etc are some examples. Engines were all AMC, even after Chryslers take over of the company in '87. The most popular engine offered was the 4.0 I6, one the best engines ever.

Today Jeep Cherokees are still popular with all sorts of people. From soccer-moms to off roaders, it's an SUV that won't die.
Jeep Cherokee Chiefs are very rare today, as is the Cherokee "Briarwood" which was produced only in '91 and '92.

Anti-Social

Anti-Social usually refers to Social Anxiety. It is a word that got a bad name due to the many psycho's and insane people committing crimes (see Anti-Social Personality Disorder). This is false, though. There are plenty of sane Anti-Social people in the world. Many are just SHY, and have poor social skills. They just do not know how to talk to people and express themselves or any emotions.

Being Anti-Social usually starts in early childhood. It can be the persons own choice, which means they are happy on their own. Or it can happen without it being under their control. Moving from place to place, not holding down any friendships, and of course living in a rural area can make a person unfamiliar around people. Another aspect can be negative incidents from the past that make a person have Social Anxiety.
Being Anti-Social and having Social Anxiety can be treated by Psychologists and many people can live a normal life. I have this disorder, and no I am not a creepy sociopath soley because I don't party everynight with 20 different people. The world thinks we are freaks, but we are NOT.
