With something like that in their back pocket it becomes really hard to sue GM for patent infringement.

But 0-60 in 28 seconds? No wonder they didn't build it.

Plus, gas was cheap back then -- or perceived as cheap (it's still cheap, but I'm not going to get into that). And most folks would rather have a Mustang or Camaro than this alphanumeric vehicle.
