Thats why it is a good car, GM did not design it..
From 85-88 Chevy Nova was a.k.a. Toyota Corolla/Sprinter. They were durable little (Japanese) cars. The interesting psychological bit is that the mechanically identical Corolla outsold the Nova by a wide margin. That's called branding. It's easy to f up a brand name but hard to build one up, especially if competitors are doing a good job at the same time.
