Not sure which awful GM 4 cyl you mean? :-) It was the GM "Family II" engine in a range of capacities up to 2L, but I think 1.8L was the most common variant used. They were also front wheel drive.

I think the most awful car I ever drove was a female friend's VC Commodore with the 4 cylinder / 1.9L Starfire engine and an automatic gearbox. "Wouldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding" is the phrase the springs to mind!
