Скачать или смотреть The Story Of The WORST Cadillac Ever Made

What happens when the most prestigious car brand in America decides to slap its legendary name onto a cheap economy car and charge double the price? In the early 1980s, Cadillac — the company that invented the electric starter, pioneered the all-steel roof, and defined American luxury for nearly a century — panicked in the face of European competition and made the worst decision in its history. They took a Chevrolet Cavalier, wrapped the seats in leather, swapped the grille, and called it the Cimarron. What followed was a seven-year disaster that saw the brand's U.S. market share collapse from 3.8% to 2.2%, alienated a quarter of its loyal customer base, and became so infamous that Cadillac's own product director hung a photo of the car on his wall captioned "Lest we forget." This is the full story of how a ten-month rush job with 88 horsepower, a $12,000 price tag twice that of its Cavalier twin, and a zero-to-sixty time of nearly sixteen seconds nearly killed one of the oldest automakers on the planet — and why GM somehow repeated the same mistake decades later.
