Make that six if you add in the 82 Vette(Chevette)

87 Suziki Samari
87 Nissan 200SX
95 Ford Probe GT
98 Infiniti QX4
01 Acura CL-Type-S


The Infiniti was the best of the bunch, I hope the Acura changes that.

Remember the Cadillac Cimmaron? It was built on the Vega chassis. Vega didn't do too well in Mexico. Slang for "no-go"?

The Infiniti was the best of the bunch, I hope the Acura changes that.
Maybe seven: Your original 200SX died, got ressurrected (in the form of the 95-99 Sentra SE-R coupe) and then died again. So technically, it got discontinued twice.

The cars I had that were discontinued:
87 & 89 Escort (discontinued 2 generations later/repl by Focus)
94 & 95 Mazda 626 (discontinued 1 generation later/repl by 6)
96 Mercury Villager (discontinued 1 generation later/repl by Monterey)
89 Colt GT Turbo & Summit LX DOHC (technically discontinued but, more like evolved into Lancer Evolution VIII)

The Integra is still produced; it's just that the USDM/CDM Integra name was replaced with RSX but it's still called 'Integra' in the rest of the world.
