It was always cool to me, man. It was always cool.
On the flip side, those cars existed when I was a little tyke. I grew up in the 80s and this is probably why I have such a thing for cars that look like the boxes they came in. Rabbits, A2 Golfs, VW Foxes, B12 Sentras, pre-Impreza Subarus...
Heck, a first generation Cavalier with white letter tires looks pretty sweet, too.

I always liked the X-11, and IIRC they won their class in SCCA Showroom stock.
A buddy of mine had a 4-door with a 4spd and the iron duke. Slow as molasses, but totally unkillable. (and we tried.....believe me we tried) With the seats folded down it was cavernous inside---- very practical car.....but not exactly glamorous!
