Pontiac sold Parisiennes in the US when the Bonneville was on a Malibu-sized platform around 81-82.
And Plymouth sold a K-car named Caravelle, IIRC....and Mercury sold a Monarch (Ford Granada)
didn't they?

Caravelle 1977-1981 Plymouth RWD same as Diplomat

Parisienne was made in 1961- 1970 because we could not get the Bonneville.

Plymouth Laser?

190 hp

nope.. it had the same HP rating as the others.. 224
That's a turbo IV.

no, it's a turbo 3.. the turbo 4 had less than the turbo 3 output.
the turbo 4 was also in those stupid maserati cars (same as LeBaron also IIRC) and some Daytonas..it had like 190 or so... it wasn't as much as the TIII.
