WELL, THAT’S SAD: The Dodge Viper Is The Last Great American Car. To be fair, I think Tom McCahill said that about the Chrysler Imperial.

UPDATE: People in the comments are surprised that I remember Tom McCahill, but the truth is I barely do. I read his stuff in Mechanix Illustrated in the school library in elementary school and junior high, and it made an impression. “Clearly, he was a gentleman of a different era.”
