Biggest lemon I ever bought was a Walther PPk/S from Interarms 
This is what I drove during the oil embargo.
It came with a bag for my head.

I worked for amc/Jeep at the time the factory rep drove in the new pacer. He asked me what I thought. I told him they put an air hose in a gremlin and closed the door to make a pacer. Lmao.

These were good cars. The 232/358 inline six design goes back to the rambler days in 1950's the old 199. The v8 gremlin with its 304 v8 a 360/401 bolts in. I like one with a bb Chevy? There was a guy Sam who raced American motors cars and was successful. Mark Donahue was successful on the race track too.
The rebel machine 390 was a dog. Nice body size for a bb Chevy. Sleeper.
Fact, I had a rebel machine 390 come in with no oil pressure on an idle. I dropped the front end and pulled the oil pan and found a hydraulic lifter in pieces. Under warranty I replaced the lifter and off she went. That's all the factory paid for.

I didn't have one of those, but did have a Plymouth Horizon. Barf.
At least it was white, and not yellow.
In the OP that looks like a Meyer variety lemon. I have a tree which produces a huge amount more, than I can give away. I make a couple of big batches of Lemoncello, makes good Christmas presents.

Well, the body style, in my view, is WAY more aesthetically pleasing than 99% of what they're designing these days.

I forgot, wasn't this pacer, gremlin or a similar model that had the sides buckle in them newfangled automatic car washes?
