Years produced: 1978-1996 Original starting price: $5,447 The Cutlass was introduced as a compact car, but had a wagon variant and edged its way slowly into family-car territory. Though the Vista Cruiser packed a V8 engine in certain models, the Cutlass Cruiser wagon was the first to take on the iconic grocery-getter look. The long Cutlasses of the 1970s and the shorter, more utilitarian Cutlass family of Cieras, Supremes, and Calaises would make the Cutlass a fixture in family driveways.
