Damn, that steering wheel could be at home in a Trabant. GM's dark days of interiors.

The N-body Skylark wasn't as bad after the final MCE, in and out.

Haha!

I love that interior and the pre-MCE Skylark!

Very flowing and futuristic, if a bit sparse.

The post-MCE interior was very diluted, and shared with the MCE Achieva. At that point, GM gave up on both cars, and focused on the Grand Am.

The '92 N-body cars get little credit, but here were 3 cars that had 3 very different interior and exterior themes on the same mechanicals. Each had its own flavour.

Don't get me started on the subject! :lol:

The "sweet spot" for these cars was 1995, when you could get the original interior plus the 3100 V6 with 4-speed (replacing the 3.3 V6 / 3-speed combo). The tradeoff in the Achieva was the ugly airbag wheel. Buick did a much better job with theirs.

Actually that '92 dash wasn't that bad in it's era. In fact was quite bold. In the flesh I liked it, just the wheel was a bit stark.
