They were also, according to Wikipedia, recalled alot. Consumers, obviously didn't like this so that's why the X-body cars were replaced by the L, A, and N bodies.

(Though you do see Skylarks,Phoenixs & Omegas....just seldom Citations,which were the best selling??)

Around where I live you don't see too many X-cars anymore. I see about the same amount of Citations (4-door hatchbacks... I've only seen a 2-door once), Skylarks, and Omegas. The only time I've seen a Phoenix was in a junk yard. I would guess that the Chevy was the best seller since Chevy has always been GM's best selling division. -- Last edit: 2007-09-09 19:11:49

All X cars either had the Pontiac 2.5L 4 cylinder engine or the Chevy 2.8 V6. My favourite X body model was this early eighties Citation 4 door hatchback equipped with the same rallye wheels and trim rings as the car pictured. My uncle had one just like this one and I really liked how it looked. My aunt had a 1980 Pontiac Phoenix at the same time that she sent to the junkyard in 1988. The floors were completely rusted out, the transmission had issues and the 2.8 V6 engine suffered from blow-by. There were some serious water infiltrations due to rust out on the windshield posts on that eight years old car! The interior of her Pontiac looked nicer than the Citation's interior with it's nice instrument panel and stainless trim in the door panels. But outside, I liked the Citation much more.
