The Lyrics
Some of us will remember that car... during a time when the Volkswagen and Japanese imports were wearing down the auto industry. The answer, apparently, was a FWD 4 cylinder 84 hp boxy no frills product in 4 K-car models. Most prominent was the unforgettable Aries K.
When the auto industry was in trouble
Beaten by the Japanese
FWD must be the answer
Aries K
It was boxy and obnoxious
Low hp, 0-60 in 16
Nothing fancy in the interior
Aries K
Aries K, Aries K, Aries K, Aries K
Sold 300,000
Aries K
Overheating, gaskets failing
Some poor handling, all agree
Still, it was the answer
To the V(W)
When production started
In the US there was a need
There came an answer
Just ask Lee*
(Chorus) [x3]
Yes, it may have been shoddy
Not exactly sporty with luxury
But it pointed to tomorrow
FWD eventually
Most consider it Kraptastic
Remember it on the street
A car of the '80s
Aries K
(Chorus) [x3]
Beaten by the Japanese
FWD must be the answer
Aries K
It was boxy and obnoxious
Low hp, 0-60 in 16
Nothing fancy in the interior
Aries K
Aries K, Aries K, Aries K, Aries K
Sold 300,000
Aries K
Overheating, gaskets failing
Some poor handling, all agree
Still, it was the answer
To the V(W)
When production started
In the US there was a need
There came an answer
Just ask Lee*
(Chorus) [x3]
Yes, it may have been shoddy
Not exactly sporty with luxury
But it pointed to tomorrow
FWD eventually
Most consider it Kraptastic
Remember it on the street
A car of the '80s
Aries K
(Chorus) [x3]
* Lee Iacocca of Chrysler (which sold one of the four K-car models, the LeBaron)

My Dad had a small Plymouth that was a real pain to find parts for. I think they used three different starters that year and you had to know the serial number to match anything.
Plymouth Reliant???
Couldn't remember the name. Reliable did not describe it.
