Above is an actual press package photo for the release of the 1982 Pontiac Firebird S/E. Nice panel fit, especially on a car used for publicity photos.
Automakers in the U.S. and abroad have really ramped up quality over the past 20 years. It’s been a a long time since I’ve witnessed a new car burn to the ground because someone forgot to put a hose clamp on a fuel line (saw it twice in person, with 1980s Fords).
