Title: Richard Porter needs to grow up
Product review: Just as the first reviewer above mentioned how the title of this book caught his eye, I too was drawn in by the perfectly blunt front cover. After all, we all know for sure what a lemon the Yugo turned out to be. Unfortunately, the rest of the book basically amounts to a third grader taunting another classmate. Why go after the Datsun b210? Because it rusted a bit? Cars are made of metal! They all eventually rust! The 210 was one of the most dependable cars ever built. Even the author recognizes the fact that the 510 would have started after a nuclear war. In other words, if you're looking for an in depth look at some of the worst cars ever built, look elsewhere. Porter decided to pick random cars out of his imaginary top hat, and dissect them with all the wit of a 4 year old. I gave one star for the nice hardcover, glossy format...and one star because it's the Christmas season. Bah, humbug.
