An Aspen/Volare didn't need a mis-painted fender to be "hated". From the
"Wiki":
Aspen and its Plymouth Volare twin were relatively short-lived models,
available from 1976-1980. It was introduced as a replacement for the trusty
_Dart_ (http://wikicars.org/en/Dodge_Dart) , but unfortunately the Aspen
turned out to be not near as trustworthy as its predecessor. The Aspen from the
start was plagued with early rust-out, driveability and reliability issues,
although later models weren't affected near as much.
"Ouch!" - Seth

I remember around 1976 or so , my neighbor brought home a new brown
Volare' that he had custom ordered ,
it arrived with one purple front fender , delivered from the Factory that
way. The dealer had to repainted it to match for him.
He really hated that car.
