I remember the article on the Dodge La Femme in Collectible Automobile back in the 1980s.

I thought it was the cringiest attempt to go after the female demographic I had ever heard of.

The Dodge Royal Lancers were pretty interesting cars, with decent power and torsion bar front suspension, but had really bad quality control and rust issues.
