Synopsis

Automotive Atrocities: The Cars You Love to Hate will bring back memories of those truly awful cars that have "graced" our roads and driveways. A truly distasteful collection of fake muscle cars, down-car compacts, faux-"luxury" cars, sales disasters, and other truly ugly and ill-conceived four-wheeled follies are impaled upon the honed wit of syndicated automotive writer Eric Peters. Each car is finally given the treatment it truly deserves, with period photography and advertisements that somehow convinced otherwise intelligent people to buy these travesties of transportation. This book appeals to anyone who either unwisely decided or was forced against their will to drive an automotive atrocity. The book gives readers the last laugh as everyone's least-favorite cars are skewered in book form for the first time.
