I laughed when they mentioned that in the 80's and 90's 3 cylinder engines were synonymous with thrashy underpowered econoboxes. I can confirm this. I once had a Pontiac Firefly with a 3 cylinder carburetor engine making a whopping 49 HP's. I had the automatic 3 speed transmission as well. It was hell on wheels.
