Note the car behind the model to aid in styling.
D-C will sell every one they make.
Ford sells every Mustang they make.
Attractive (in these cases, classic) appearance coupled with technological innovation and sophistication. Not to be sexist (who me? Oh no!) . . . BUT . . . it's like an intelligent, beautiful, educated, sophisticated woman. What's not to like? Instant appeal.
Why can't GM figure this out?
At least the Solstice shows that all is not lost.
Even (sop to Ken, here) the GTO makes the attempt. Mechanical sophistication, just lacking in the visual appeal and styling clues to its (supposed) roots.R.i.K.

for GM to take grasp of what's going on and bring out something...anything that evoke some type of passion that we can afford.
GM is getting eating alive.
