That Chrysler SSR was a prime example of wondering why no one at any point during the design and creation of that car, no one thought “this is a really stupid idea and we shouldn’t do this.”
In fairness to Mitsuoka, taking modern cars and transforming them into classics is not an idiotic idea. But the execution of the Mitsuoka Le-Seyde could've been pulled off much, _MUCH_ better
To be fair, the 1989 Dodge Dakota came as a soft top convertible. Why? Idk but it did. The SSR was designed by the same guy who designed the PT cruiser, it was supposed to be a call back to the old hotrods same as the Plymouth prowler, the SSR was supposed to look like the 50s chevy pickup, while the SSR wasn't a good car, at all, it was really important in relearning some old forgotten manufacturing techniques which helped out later in aluminum body panels.
Better yet, Ford Model T came as a convertible pick-up. The Dodge Dakota was available two ways. You could order one from the factory, sure, but if you already had one, Chrysler was happy to sell you a complete kit to retrofit the drop top to any square body Dakota.
even americans don't like the SSR. hammond even calls it "no nobody did" [drive the ssr] it was figured it was gonna be this super collectable truck and it *isn't* but the 50 year old retirees that GM sold this too aren't giving up their misguided hope

It's not very good as a pickup truck...BUT...its really bad as a sports car.
😂
Dodge Dakota's were convertible pickups here in the states in the 90s....

Speak for yourself. I personally love the SSR. It was one of my dream cars growing up.
@@LostInPhilly89You're also running on 3 brain cells
Why is seemingly every SSR yellow?
Also James made a great example in this episode that you should never go on a car eBay type site while drunk.
No Citroën Pluriel? 👎👎👎

Not a good pickup, but it's a bad sportscar.
Somebody in the advertising agency got fired.
