Chevrolet Monza

The Monza was another bite-size compact car sold during the late 1970s and early ’80s. The Monza was not a performance car in any sense of the word. Its styling was made fun of by the automotive world because it seemed puny compared to the Chevrolets that came before it. Perhaps the most unique thing about the Monza was that it looked like a miniature Camaro from the front and rear of the vehicle (via EP Auto).

The Monza was never a big seller for GM and the car was discontinued a few years after it was introduced. The domestic automakers were rushing to get compact cars onto the market, even when the quality wasn’t that great. The Monza had a lot of potential to be a great car but the innovation just wasn’t there.
