Posted by Brian Baker;Sounds like a "mule" car out of engineering. A car like that never would have gotten sold. They would let engineers and certain executives drive them around as a "perk" in order to test them in various real world driving conditions. When they were done with them, they usually got crushed, or at least stuck in GM's back storage.



From what I remember, my neighbor was not happy about that Grand Am going back to Michigan. He said that was the best car GM would ever destroy. BTW, He was here to oversee some production issues problem solving at the old St. Louis Assembly plant where the Corvettes were built. That is why they wanted him to drive a Corvette. But with 4 kids, Corvettes are not very usible!
