There were many luxury coupes that came out through the 1970s, and Chrysler released the Cordoba. The car actually hit the market to a fair amount of fanfare, but was quickly disabused once drivers figured out the shortcomings. The Cordoba was lacking in quality and reliability, and this caused an issue with buyers. Considering the car had a premium price tag and was billed as a premium vehicle, this wasn’t satisfactory (via Medium).

Chrysler would redesign the front clip of the car and make various changes over time, but it wasn’t enough to save the Cordoba. The car was relegated to the junk heap early in life, and you’ll seldom see one on the road anymore. But the Cordoba wasn’t all bad, and nowadays this makes an excellent classic car because of the affordable price. While cars with name brand recognition like the Monte Carlo rack up high price tags, the Cordoba can be had for a little bit of nothing.
